Fredrika Bremer (1801-1865) was a Swedish writer and a feminist activist. In 1828, she debuted as a writer, anonomously, with a series of novels published until 1831, and was soon followed by others. Her novels were romantic stories of the time and concentrated on women in the marriage market; either beautiful and superficial, or unattractive with no hope of joining it. She wanted a new kind of family life, not focused only on the men of the family, that would allow for women to develop their own talents and personality. Politically, she was a liberal, but also felt sympathy for the socialism of the English working class movement. Her novel Hertha (1856) remains her most influential work; it is a dark novel about the lack of freedom for women. In 1862, she supported the idea to give women the right to vote, which was talked about as the "horrific sight" of seeing "crinolines at the electionboxes". Her other works include: Teckningar Utur Hvardagslifvet (1828), Presidentens Döttrar (1834), Nina (1835), Grannarne (1837) and Hemmet (1839).
