Summary: "Ljocht en Skaed: In mennich biskôgings" by Douwe Kalma is a collection of essays likely written in the early 20th century. The text explores the themes of war, societal indifference, and national identity, particularly in the context of Friesland during a tumultuous historical period. The work seems to emphasize the importance of self-awareness and individual responsibility in the face of collective crises. The opening of the collection introduces the profound sense of despair and contradiction felt in the wake of war, encapsulating the duality of human existence—light and shadow. Kalma reflects on how society continues its daily routines amidst the horrors of conflict, urging readers to recognize the gravity of their times. He questions the complacency of people who ignore the urgent moral responsibilities that war presents, driving home the necessity for personal and collective action in safeguarding the future. Throughout this reflective piece, Kalma intertwines philosophical musings and sociopolitical critique, creating a poignant commentary on the human condition against the backdrop of historical upheaval.
