"I stället för att mingla med bemanningsutsugare borde våra folkvalda ta en kopp beskt kaffe och läsa två texter ur detta magasin: Först Jonas Juuso och Karolina Dahls rysarbrevväxling om de bisarra och årligt försämrade villkoren i deras vårdjobb. Därefter Hanna Alfredssons serieberättelse om timanställningar. Jag får en knut i magen som håller i sig flera dagar. Alla måste läsa!" - Ida Therén, Aftonbladet "Få tidskrifter är lika bra som Det grymma svärdet på att bejaka tidskriftsformatets många möjligheter. När andra lägger fokus på pliktskyldiga temanummer ger man i DGS plats åt det ofärdiga, det rastlösa, det långa och vindlande. I #21 finns till exempel en chat mellan Pontus Lundkvist och Johannes Nilsson om den samtida vänstern, ett reportage om alternativa sociala medier av Magdalena Nordin och en härligt knastrig dagbokstext av Karolina Stenström. Ett andningshål, mitt i all torftighet" - Rebecka Kärde, Arbetaren
Vi tänkte göra ett nummer om pengar, men det blev mer ett nummer om klass och om över- och underordning än något om pengar i sig. Väldigt mycket serier blev det också, en del av folk som aldrig publicerats på svenska innan som Tommi Parrish, Simon Hanselmann och Berliac. Andra Det Grymma Svärdet-debutanter denna gång: Noah Van Sciver, Evelina Mohei, Anders Kvammen och Stella Tallinger. De medverkande kommer från nio länder i fyra världsdelar!

Dutch Golden Age scholar Anna Maria van Schurman was widely regarded throughout the seventeenth century as the most learned woman of her age. She was 'The Star of Utrecht','The Dutch Minerva','The Tenth Muse', 'a miracle of her sex', 'the incomparable Virgin', and 'the oracle of Utrecht'. As the first woman ever to attend a university, she was also the first to advocate, boldly, that women should be admitted into universities. A brilliant linguist, she mastered some fifteen languages. She was the first Dutch woman to seek publication of her correspondence. Her letters in several languages Hebrew, Greek, Latin, and French – to the intellectual men and women of her time reveal the breadth of her interests in theology, philosophy, medicine, literature, numismatics, painting, sculpture, embroidery, and instrumental music. This study addresses Van Schurman's transformative contribution to the seventeenth-century debate on women's education. It analyses, first, her educational philosophy; and, second, the transnational reception of her writings on women's education, particularly in France. Anne Larsen explores how, in advocating advanced learning for women, Van Schurman challenged the educational establishment of her day to allow women to study all the arts and the sciences. Her letters offer fascinating insights into the challenges that scholarly women faced in the early modern period when they sought to define themselves as intellectuals, writers, and thoughtful contributors to the social good.

After years of obscurity, Anna Maria Ortese (1914–1998) is emerging as one of the most important Italian authors of the twentieth-century, taking her place alongside such luminaries as Italo Calvino, Primo Levi, and Elsa Morante. Anna Maria Ortese: Celestial Geographies features a selection of essays by established Ortese scholars that trace her remarkable creative trajectory. Bringing a wide range of critical perspectives to Ortese’s work, the contributors to this collection map the author’s complex textual geography, with its overlapping literary genres, forms, and conceptual categories, and the rhetorical and narrative strategies that pervade Ortese’s many types of writing. The essays are complemented by material translated here for the first time: Ortese’s unpublished letters to her mentor, the writer Massimo Bontempelli; and an extended interview with Ortese by fellow Italian novelist Dacia Maraini.
