Short presentation

My research interests include canon formation, literary criticism, and the relationship between form and content in literature over time. My monograph, Strindbergs lilla röda (with designer Nina Ulmaja), was nominated for the August Prize in the category Non-Fiction Book of the Year in 2019. I'm part of the research group WeStAc and an affiliated researcher at the Center for Arts, Business & Culture, Stockholm School of Economics. I'm an editor at the journal Respons and Svenska Dagbladet.
