Dagny was a women's magazine that existed between 1886 and 1913 in Stockholm, Sweden. The title of the magazine bore the statement Utgifvet af Fredrika-Bremer Förbundet ( Swedish: published by the Fredrika Bremer Association), indicating its publisher. [1] It was subtitled as Tidskrift för sociala och litterära intressen ( Swedish: Journal for social and literary interests). [2] It is the first Swedish magazine which covered social issues from women's perspective and assumed a leading position in the suffrage movement in Sweden from 1903. [3]
Dagny was launched in 1886 as a successor to another women's magazine, Tidskrift för hemmet, which was published from 1859 to 1885. [1] [2] [3] Its publisher was the Fredrika Bremer Association. [2] [4] According to doctor Folke Henschen , son of doctor Salomon Henschen, the periodical was named after his sister, translator Dagny Henschen . [5] The magazine was headquartered in Stockholm and published on a weekly basis. [6] The editor of Dagny was Lotten Dahlgren, who held the post between 1891 and 1907. [7]
The page number of Dagny varied between 15 and 35 in the period 1900 to 1907 and was 12 from 1908 to 1913. [8] Its size was 22 cm (8.7 in) from 1900 to 1907 and 32 cm (13 in) from 1908 to 1913. [8]
Dagny folded in 1913 and was succeeded by Hertha, another women's magazine. [1] The full issues of Dagny have been archived in the Swedish National Archives and in the Gothenburg University Library. [1] [9]
