Our book Ur regnskogens skugga about Daniel Rolander (a disciple of Carl Linnaeus) who went to Suriname for research was nominated to the August Prize in November 2012 and was awarded the Verbala priset
at Svenska Publishinggalan 2012 ("for a masterpiece in cultural history and one of the best account of a travel ever").
My fields of research are varied: Vergil, St. Birgitta of Sweden, the correspondence of Chancellor of the Realm Axel Oxenstierna, Daniel Rolander's Diarium Surinamicum. I have also co-edited a collection of articles about Sweden's first woman poet, Sophia Elisabet Brenner (d. 1730). For details about my research see the list of publications below.
