- Four early crime stories from four different Nordic countries are investigated: "The Rector of Vejlbye bye" (1829) the Danish author Steen Steensen Blicher, "A Skällnors Mill" (1838) by the Swedish author Carl Jonas Love Almqvist, "The Murder of Engine Maker Roolfsen" (1839) byt the Norwegian writer Mauritz Christopher Hansen, and "A Night and A Morning" (1843)byt the Finnish-Swedish authorZacharias Topelius. The four stories are examined as early examples of detective stories to show how they apply to the acknowledged "detection formula". There is also a discussion about in what way the stories relate to their time and cultural context as crime and mysteriy stories and in what way they set up what were to become the standard elements of detective fiction.
