I have today removed one section about Latin works , and one section about spiritual literature in the 18th century, since these weren't Swedish language literature. ]-] 21:12, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

==Some comments==

I saw that you requested a review of this article, so I read it through and gave it a copyedit, running an English eye over it (feel free to revert me where you disagree).

Apart from Strindberg, I knew little about the subject matter, and so I read the article with great interest. It is certainly very full; in terms of content and referencing it obviously represents very thorough work, and on those grounds it has the makings of a quality article. Where it falls down, perhaps inevitably, is in the prose, which is a little stiff and unidiomatic, in my opinion. I've copyedited some individual words and phrases, though I couldn't quite work out what was meant by:

*enlived
*naturesque
*transisted

so I left them alone. I also found the following a little inscrutable

*''The 20th century in literature cannot be said to have begun in the 1900. In fact, the poets of the 90s had their strongest support in the early 1900s.''

I took this to mean that the 20th century in literature didn't really begin until after the first decade of the century, but I wasn't sure, and so I left it alone.

Although I've corrected some individual words, there are longer passages that don't read as clearly and fluently as they could, in my opinion. I'm always willing to help, though you may feel I've already interfered too much.

But, once again, this is a substantial and informative article of good quality. Many congratulations.

(By the way, though I don't really know anything about Swedish literature, I have read a quite brilliant book by Tove Jansson (Finnish, but a Swedish writer) called "The Summer Book", one of her adult books. It made an impact in Britain when it was translated into English a few years ago. Here's a review of it: )

All the best. ] 01:48, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

: Thank you indeed.
: With English level 3, this is the best I can write, and I'm not ashamed to admit that copyediting of my articles is usually necessary...
: I'll address your questions shortly.

Yes, a good article in the making. Lots of content, thoroughly sourced. This is exactly the kind of article Misplaced Pages needs. It's just that the English needs severe reworking. I'll try and do some copy-editing on it over the next few days. Cheers. --] 19:36, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Hello, in my assessment, this meets the required criteria. One suggestion, merge or expand the short paragraphs. I would also recommend expanding any of the "main article" sections, with regard to each sub-subject's influence on Swedish literature as a whole. The Rök Runestone is especially interesting to me, but the coverage through out history is pretty good! =b d= ]+] 21:04, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
