Dr. Lynn R. Wilkinson Publishes New Book on Scandinavian Modernist Drama

Our colleague Lynn Wilkinson just published her new book entitled Anne Charlotte Leffler and Modernist Drama: True Women and New Women on the Fin-de-Siècle Scandinavian Stage (Cardiff: Welsh Acadmic Press, 2011). The book is the first full-length study on the writings of Ann Charlotte Leffler (1849-1892) who was perhaps the most important European woman playwright of the late 19th century. Together with Ibsen and Strindberg, she was one of the pioneers of modernist drama in Scandinavia.
