This is the most comprehensive history of modern Swedish literature
to have been published in English. The book includes both in-depth
studies of major writers like August Strindberg, Hjalmar Soederberg
and Par Lagerkvist and survey accounts of the more important
periods and movements, from the neo-romantic writers of the 1890s
to the uniquely important working-class literature of the 1930s and
the modernist lyric poetry of the following decade. The authors are
all acknowledged experts in their respective fields, and the volume
is designed and written both for the general reader, who will find
it a valuable introduction to a fascinating body of literature, and
the specialist student, for whom it provides an authoritative first
port of call. The volume is also equipped with suggestions for
further reading and a helpful bibliography of English translations
of many of the works discussed in the various essays.
