10122 Fröding           Discovered 1993 Jan. 27 by E. W. Elst at Caussols.
The Swedish poet Gustav Fröding (1860-1911) suffered from inherited mental illness. A journalist for the radical newspaper Karlstad-Tidningen, he became inspired by Nietzsche's work. The highly vocal elements in his poems inspired Sibelius to set several of them to music.
