Anne Clausdatter

Anne Clausdatter, also known as Anne Arnold and Anna Clausdatter, was a Norwegian landowner; owner of Borgestad Manor in Skien, one of the largest estates of Bratsberg.

Legacy
Today, she is remembered i.a. as the title character of the poem Stolt Anne (ca. 1700) by Hans Paus, who was married to her first cousin. The poem portrays her as a generous person who was well liked by the population of Telemark. The poem is also notable for being the first written in dialect in Norway, and 12 verses were included in Norske Folkeviser (1853) by Magnus Brostrup Landstad. ==References==
