The Bohemian Commandments ( Norwegian: Bohêmbud) or Nine Bohemian Commandments ( Norwegian: Bohêmens ni bud) is a frequently cited text from the Kristiania Bohemian movement in Oslo: [1] [2]
The commandments come from an article published in Impressionisten no. 8 in February 1889, which is often attributed to Hans Jæger. However, in the biographical novel Jæger – en rekonstruksjon (Jæger: A Reconstruction), Ketil Bjørnstad writes that the journal's publisher, Johan Collett Michelsen, wrote the piece together with Oda and Christian Krohg as a parody of Jæger, with whom they were in dispute.
