Biography

Adolf Georg Wiedersheim-Paul was a Swedish writer of novels/plays and an actor. In 1892 he published a collection of short stories called "The Ripper", in which one chapter entitled "Vanitas" concerns a homosexual liasion between a priest and a schoolboy in Weimar, Germany, while "Oedipus i Norden" is a mother-son incest story from Scandinavia. Adolf Paul lived most of his adult life in Berlin, Germany, where he was a close friend of Swedish writer August Strindberg, Finnish composer Jean Sibelius, and Norwegian painter Edvard Munch.
