Ever since it was founded in 1896, the Swedish Humanities Association has safeguarded classical education in our country and endeavored to make humanistic research accessible to a broader public. This is done through lectures in more than 35 local humanities associations and by publishing publications. Each year, the association publishes a book that is primarily distributed to almost all of its approximately 3 500 members, but has a much wider circulation. In recent years we have had the pleasure of working with quality publishers such as Atlantis, Carlssons, Norstedts and Santérus, and with writers such as Carina Burman, Bo Lindberg, Olle Ferm and Marin Kylhammar. In 2012, a work by literary scholar David Anthin on Evert Taube will be a yearbook. We believe that this work will attract considerable attention and contribute to a deeper understanding of this poet.
