AB - This study focuses on the voices of four female writers in the age of Swedish Literary Modernism. The authors included are Victoria Benedictsson (1850-1888), Edith Södergran (1892-1923), Rut Hillarp (1914-2003), and Stina Aronsson (1892-1956). The aim of this investigation is to examine how the female voice is expressed in the literary works produced by these female writers. The literary critic Eva Adolfsson argues that female writers, who did not naturally feel comfortable with the kind of texts they produced, experienced the writing process as a kind of struggle. This struggle had a dual quality: both as an outward struggle to claim a place in the public discourse, and an inward struggle to motivate themselves to keep on writing. According to Adolfsson, this dual struggle leaves an imprint on the authors’ literary works. This study shows how the female voices of the different literary works are linked to the female writers’ search for their own authentic identity, and in opposition to prevailing patriarchal norms. In this manner, they can forge a way towards a unique narrative form of expression of their creative powers.
