Kort presentation
My primary research interests lie in the field of neo-Latin literature. In my current project I am studying neo-Latin poetry that was written to justify the Swedish state-building programme between 1550-1650. The project is funded by (1) The Swedish Research Council, (2) the Department of Linguistics and Philology, Uppsala University, and (3) The Sweden-America Foundation.

SUPERVISION
2022-23: Supervision of a master thesis (edition of neo-Latin text, with translation and commentary)
My research interests include Neo-Latin literature, the ideological uses and applications of poetry, the history of the early modern university, early modern dissertations, early modern state-building, the Reformation, the reception of classical antiquity in Sweden, the reception of Jean-Jacques Rousseau in Sweden.
In 2018, I was awarded a research grant from The Åke Wiberg Foundation to conduct two concurrent projects. Project one studies antiquarianism in early modern Sweden. Project two explores the reception of the late antique poet Claudian in Northern Europe. Both projects are scheduled from January 2020 through December 2023. Both projects will result in articles and chapters for collective volumes.
