“The situation remains acute for the Swedish Academy”
“Peter Englund and Kjell Espmark makes a comeback”
“This is a kulturartikel which is a part of Aftonbladet’s opinionsjournalistik.”
“Peter Englund and Kjell Espmark return to the Swedish Academy, announces the DN.”
“As an argument for the return, enter the to the in the autumn ”participated in the reconstruction of the Swedish Academy, and participated in several important decisions” and ”has now reached a point where a sustained effort of reform can only be done within the Academy”.”
“Soon must, for example, a new permanent secretary is appointed, then Anders Olsson according to the statutes have to leave the post office when he reaches the age of 70.”
“in Addition, see Englund,” and Espmarks requirements on Katarina Frostenson shall leave now to become a reality. Frostenson proposal for a settlement with the Swedish Academy means that she says to be prepared to get off to that she receives compensation for the loss of income. Fair game, given the Academy’s archaic livstidskontrakt, even if it is to be hoped that in such case the question of fair compensation. Miller is considered in spite of everything have mismanaged their mission.”
“But the issue is whether or not more members have done it. The whole Academy must have known several of the irregularities in this tangle, and – actively or passively – sanctioned them. Best would be if all the departed and a brand new academy was built up.”
“Englund,” and Espmarks comeback appears to be well timed, not least in order to prevent such a solution, and their willingness to restore the Academy trust is certainly genuine. The situation is, however, still acute. In particular, as the Academy recently chose to reward a person who testified to the Arnaults defense with a scholarship of sek 60 000.”
