In 19th century Sweden the norms of love and affection among people were differend. Did there exist relationships only between man and woman, or were there other queer affections present? How do we think of the 19th century through modern notions of sexuality?Eva Borgström describes how love between women was represented in the literary works of six greatest Swedish writers - Fredrika Bremer, Carl Jonas Love Almqvist, Vilhelmine Zahle, Mathilda Roos, August Strindberg and Ellen Key. What did they write, and how? How did their environment react to their writing?
