 The result was "Danmark og Færøerne" ("Denmark and the Faroe Islands", 1927) a competent and well-written study that first examines the historical relationship between the two countries and then the cultural awakening of the Faroe Islands, with brief summaries of the works of the main figures concerned, finishing with a review of present-day relations between the two countries.Here, as elsewhere in his writings, he stresses the fact that the Faroese are not Danes, that their cultures and temperaments are quite different.Without being openly anti-Danish, he clearly reveals himself as an ardent Faroese nationalist.
