THOMAS THORILD (1759\u20131808) best\u00e4mde sig tidigt f\u00f6r att bli geni. <\/em><\/p>

Han efterstr\u00e4vade en alltigenom f\u00f6r\u00e4ndrad syn p\u00e5 litteraturen och f\u00f6rfattarrollen och kom h\u00e4rvid att kalla sig, inte f\u00f6r skald utan f\u00f6r \u201dAutor\u201d \u2013 \u201den pr\u00e4st i Naturens heliga sanning\u201d. Litteraturen var en alltf\u00f6r allvarig sak f\u00f6r att l\u00e4mnas \u00e5t rimsmeder och konversat\u00f6rer. Endast geniet \u2013 den stridande, kraftfulla sanningss\u00f6karen p\u00e5 det litter\u00e4ra f\u00e4ltet \u2013 kunde fullt ut vara dess tj\u00e4nare och hade d\u00e5 \u00e4ven r\u00e4tt att fritt s\u00f6ka sitt uttryck och sitt formspr\u00e5k. <\/em><\/p>

Den fattige, f\u00f6r\u00e4ldral\u00f6se Thorild, som helt p\u00e5 egen hand skaffat sig utbildning och plats p\u00e5 den kulturella arenan, adlade sitt utanf\u00f6rskap till storhet med en ny poesi i sak som i sin opolerade styrka, virila kraft och m\u00e4ktiga ordmusik fullst\u00e4ndigt br\u00f6t med tidens r\u00e5dande konventioner.<\/em><\/p>

Thorild blev h\u00e4r, tillsammans med v\u00e4nnen Bengt Lidner, en romantikens pionj\u00e4r i Sverige. Han skisserade ocks\u00e5 sin helt egna kanon i l\u00e4rodikten\u00a0Passionerna\u00a0<\/i>(1785) d\u00e4r de stora andarna har namn som Ossian, Klopstock, Newton, Rousseau. H\u00e4r f\u00f6rmedlas k\u00e4nslan av ett v\u00e4ldigt, odelbart Vara, vars kraft genomstr\u00f6mmar ting, varelser och ord. Dikten f\u00f6ranledde en strid med\u00a0Kellgren\u00a0vilken kallade Thorilds egensinniga hexameter f\u00f6r ett \u201dversslag, stridande mot den i vitterheten allm\u00e4nt godk\u00e4nda smaken\u201d. Kellgren s\u00e5g dock poetiska l\u00f6ften i Thorilds diktning, om \u00e4n han ej fullt kunde omfatta dess villkorsl\u00f6sa krav p\u00e5 tv\u00e5ngsl\u00f6shet och frihet.<\/p>

I dialogdikten\u00a0Harmen\u00a0<\/i>(1787) \u00e4r Thorilds uttryck lika ot\u00e4mjeligt och starkt. D\u00e4r m\u00f6ter diktaren guden Thor, som ger honom del av sin ljungeld och g\u00f6r honom till en trotsets f\u00f6respr\u00e5kare. Egensinnig och okuvlig \u00e4r ocks\u00e5\u00a0En Critik \u00f6fver critiker<\/i>\u00a0(1791) d\u00e4r Thorild l\u00e4gger fram grundlagarna f\u00f6r granskning av litter\u00e4ra arbeten: att veta vad man skall d\u00f6ma, att d\u00f6ma allt efter dess art och grad, att veta att ingenting g\u00f6rs f\u00f6r sina fels skull utan f\u00f6r sitt v\u00e4rdes skull. Skriften \u00e4r \u00e4ven ett angrepp p\u00e5 den tidigare tr\u00e4tobrodern Kellgren, vars kritiska g\u00e4rning Thorild s\u00e5g som kitslig och missriktad, och med vilken han nu kom att utk\u00e4mpa \u00e4nnu en strid.<\/p>

\u00c4ven inom politiken var Thorild starkt engagerad f\u00f6r det han s\u00e5g som f\u00f6rnuft, sanning och r\u00e4tt. Han blev en av den franska revolutionens mest \u00f6vertygade anh\u00e4ngare i Sverige och menade att riksdagen borde ers\u00e4ttas av en \u201dtribunal f\u00f6r upplysning och f\u00f6rb\u00e4ttring\u201d. Efter kungamordet 1792 ledde Thorilds publikationer i frihetsfr\u00e5gan till h\u00e4ktning och f\u00f6rh\u00f6r. Han d\u00f6mdes till fyra \u00e5rs landsf\u00f6rvisning, under vilken han skrev det filosofiska verket\u00a0Maximum seu Archimetria<\/i>\u00a0(1799), en kritik av Kant och den idealistiska filosofin.<\/p>

Thorilds mest k\u00e4nda devis \u2013 \u201dT\u00e4nka fritt, \u00e4r stort; men t\u00e4nka r\u00e4tt, \u00e4r st\u00f6rre\u201d \u2013 st\u00e5r idag i guldskrift \u00f6ver ing\u00e5ngen till Uppsala universitets aula. I en tillbakablick \u00f6ver sitt liv sammanfattar Thorild sin traktan och ambition: \u201dJag hade blott\u00a0en<\/i>\u00a0stor och of\u00f6r\u00e4nderlig tanke i Livet: \u2019Att\u00a0F\u00f6rklara hela Naturen<\/i>, och\u00a0Reformera hela V\u00e4rlden<\/i>\u2019\u201d.<\/p><\/div>
