On the other hand, Kajsa Lindsten Öberg demonstrates that literature, be it for adults or for children, is not entirely uninfluenced by current affairs. Mirror or not, the following two articles about recent Swedish titles identify themes connected with public debate, but also include some exposing testimonies about the most private sphere. There is a mounting international interest in Swedish literature. Swedish books are found on bestseller and “critics’ choice” charts all over the world, and the publication of translations is no longer limited to a handful of specialist publishers. Bidding for titles occurs more and more often, even for translations of previously unpublished writers. Ingrid Elam and Kajsa Lindsten Öberg have been requested to com- ment on this year’s published books for the Frankfurt Book Fair 2000. The selection of titles and the opinions are entirely their own. The com- ments are usually short but will hopefully encourage further reading. For more information about the authors, we refer you to each respective publisher. Information about funding of translations can be obtained from the Swedish Institute.

  • Swedish Cultural Policy and Support for Authors
    Stockholm School of Economics Department of Economics Master‟s thesis WHAT DRIVES THE PEN? AN ASSESSMENT OF SWEDISH CULTURAL POLICY THROUGH LITERARY OUTPUT Abstract Cultural policy makers in Sweden and abroad stress the differences between the market for art and regular markets, calling for public intervention towards compensation to artists. Such a subsidy in Sweden is the guaranteed writer‟s compensation awarded to professionally established authors to relieve them from the economic uncertainties of their occupation. This thesis aims to evaluate the accomplishments of Swedish cultural and artist policy relating them to theories from cultural economics. Using the guaranteed writer‟s compensation as a policy example, we test if assumptions on authors‟ incentives are correct. A test on literary productivity, comparing book output before and after authors become entitled to payments from the scheme, is performed. Additionally, the potential relationship between the compensation and quality, expressed using availability at libraries as a proxy, is tested. We find that receiving a relatively unconditional raise in income does affect the output of the authors through a diminished book production, whereas the impact on quality is unclear. Discussing these results on the basis of relevant cultural policy objectives we find that by primarily catering to artists‟ needs, an unconditional support might be less compatible with the fundamental intentions behind publicly subsidizing the arts. Keywords: cultural economics, cultural policy, artist incentives, creativity, literary production Authors Peter Höglund* and Samuel Persson† Tutor Richard Friberg Examiner Mark Voorneveld Discussants Kamilla Jönvik and Claudia Olsson Presentation January 30, 2009 10.15-12.00, Room 328 * [email protected][email protected] Table of Contents 1.

A study on how today’s teenage litterature is met by its target group Författare: Lena Tellefsen Kollegium: Kollegium 3 Färdigställt: 2003 Handledare: Gunilla Borén Abstract: The purpose of this study was to investigate young teenagers (13-16) reading habits and attitudes concerning today’s modern teenage- litterature especially written for the young teenagers. The study also includes the reader’s apprehension of the litterature and how the target group is reached. The study is based on results from questionnaires, interviews and by compiling summaries of litterature relevant to this study. Earlier research has been compared with results from this study. Reflections made by teachers and librarians concerning the youth`s reading habits are an integral part of the study. Theoretical approaches, mainly “reader- oriented” theories, have been studied and actively used in the analysis of the results. The study result shows that young teenagers often read teenage- litterature and prefer this compared to adult litterature. They found the litterature to fulfill their expectations of themes, ability of identification and realism. It also had a positive impact on the readers, often leading to reflections. The main reason for reading was pleasure.
