Summary | "Samling af Swenska Ordspråk" by Lars Rhodin is a collection of Swedish proverbs compiled in the early 19th century. The work arranges various sayings and maxims alphabetically, with additional proverbs derived from Latin and other languages that convey similar or opposing sentiments. The collection highlights the significance of proverbs in Swedish culture, illustrating the enduring nature of wisdom passed down through generations. The opening of this collection introduces readers to the long tradition of Swedish proverbs, noting their value in expressing moral and social concepts. Rhodin reflects on the origins of many proverbs, suggesting links between contemporary sayings and ancient sources, including references to historical scholarship. He acknowledges that this is not a comprehensive collection, but rather a personal endeavor that started to amuse himself and a friend, aimed at preserving proverbs as heard in daily conversations. The preface indicates his intent to entertain while providing a resource for language learners, setting the stage for the rich tapestry of folk wisdom contained in the entries that follow.
