Creating internships for newly arrived refugees and immigrants is a well-established part of the Swedish national integration program and is seen as a strategy to speed up immigrants' establishment process. One common belief is that the workplace is expected to give the newly arrived trainee necessary language training, as well as contextual and cultural knowledge. Here, the transferring direction of knowledge is from the Swedish workplace to the receiving newly arrived trainee. However, it is rarely discussed whether the trainee will bring valuable knowledge to the organization, or what the relational aspects of the internship should look like. In this paper, we develop the analysis of internships as a mean for integration in Sweden, by analyzing what trainees and their supervisors experience in terms of knowledge transfer and development. By interviewing trainees (4) and supervisors (5), the aim of this paper is to discuss ideas and practices in an internship program for refugees that The University of Gothenburg started in 2015. The interviews focus on the structural and organizational level, though individual experiences also play a central role. Theoretically, the analysis is interdisciplinary and a cross-cut between organizational theory and cultural studies, especially the work of Sara Ahmed. Our results show that the trainee is seen both as a resource and as someone who represents multiculturalism, hospitality, and the altruism of the university and its employees. The trainee is expected not only to integrate in a productive way, but also to stand out in non-productive areas, such as the social context.

The time of the two Sapphos: The other Sappho and her place in literary history In 1761, the Swedish poet Hedvig Charlotta Nordenflycht published ”Fruentimrets Försvar”, a poem in defence of women. In it, she mentions two Sapphos, both brilliant ancient poets. Who is this second Sappho? Where does she come from? In this article, I trace the other Sappho’s history, from Aelian’s Historical Miscellany written in the 3rd century to Allier de Hauteroche’s Notice sur la Courtesan Sapho, Née a Érésos, published in 1822. I argue that this second Sappho, of whom no historical record exists, has had a twofold purpose in literary history: on the one hand to make sense of the many contradictory stories of Sappho, on the other hand to free the ”real” Sappho from accusations of sexual licentiousness.

Under 1700-talet hände något märkligt inom svensk litteratur. Sophia Elisabeth Brenner (1659-1730), Hedvig Charlotta Nordenflycht (1718-1763) och Anna Maria Lenngren (1754-1817) uppnådde, en efter en, stjärnstatus på den svenska parnassen -trots att de levde i en värld där kvinnor enligt gängse mening varken borde synas eller höras i det offentliga livet. Hur gick det till? I denna artikel närmar jag mig frågan utifrån de materiella perspektiv som under senare år rönt allt mer uppmärksamhet inom den internationella forskningen om tidigmoderna kvinnliga författare. I två delanalyser studerar jag fyra trycka diktsamlingar, en handskriven kodex, ett tillfällestryck och en tidning, utifrån frågan vad fysiska objekt som tryckark, böcker och tidskrifter kan lära oss om hur tidigmoderna skrivande kvinnor presenterades som författare.
