Johannes Vilhelm Jensen (commonly known as Johannes V. Jensen; 20 January 1873 – 25 November 1950) was a Danish author, often considered the first great Danish writer of the 20th century. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1944 "for the rare strength and fertility of his poetic imagination with which is combined an intellectual curiosity of wide scope and a bold, freshly creative style". One of his sisters, Thit Jensen, was also a well-known writer and a very vocal, and occasionally controversial, early feminist.
Swift og Oehlenschlæger leverer, hvad allerede titlen lover, nemlig to forfatterportrætter af Jonathan Swift og Adam Oehlenschlæger. Teksterne udgør afslutningen på et langt og produktivt forfatterskab og blev udgivet i 1950, samme år som forfatteren døde. Portrættet af Adam Oehlenschlæger er af særlig interesse, fordi man her ser Johannes V. Jensen spejle sig i sit digteriske forbillede, et forbillede, som han beskriver som et ukunstlet, jævnt menneske, der med sindsro accepterer sin død.
