About Hans Povelsson Paus

Sir Hans Povelsson Paus was a Norwegian priest and poet. He served as the parish priest in Kviteseid prestegjeld from 1683 until his death. A popular man in his parish who learned the local dialect, he is noted for being the first to write poetry in dialect in Norway. His poem Stolt Anne, written in the Kviteseid dialect, became a popular folk song in Telemark. 12 verses were included in Norske Folkeviser (1853) by Magnus Brostrup Landstad and Henrik Ibsen, a relative of Hans Paus, paraphrased the poem in the drama Lady Inger of Ostrat. The poem honored Anne Clausdatter, the owner of Borgestad Manor and a relative of Paus. She rewarded him with an agricultural property (Bukkøy) for it. He owned several agricultural properties in Kviteseid.
