Anne Charlotte Leffler's play Sanna kvinnor (True Women) (1883), together with other late nineteenth-century plays by women playwrights, is considered a significant historical event in Swedish theatre histories, regarded as a successful feminist intervention. This study examines the cultural-specific conditions and agendas that governed the interpretations of Sanna kvinnor at the theatres. Theoretically, it is based on the idea of plays as the initiators of circulation, which in turn is performative. The focus is on the social imaginaries that are reinstated by the stagings and their interpretations, and how these imaginaries reciprocally shape the interpretations of the play's central theme, protagonist and audience address. The article provides an overview of the various social imaginaries at play and identifies the cultural and social abstractions that form a specific culture of circulation. The encounters between the play and various Nordic theatre environments are examined by closely analyzing and contextualizing theatrical reviews.

社会想象与流通文化：19 世纪末北欧戏剧中的 Sanna kvinnor


安妮·夏洛特·莱弗勒 （Anne Charlotte Leffler） 的戏剧 Sanna kvinnor（真正的女性）（1883 年）以及 19 世纪末女性剧作家的其他戏剧，被认为是瑞典戏剧史上的重要历史事件，被认为是一次成功的女权主义干预。本研究考察了支配剧院对 Sanna kvinnor 的诠释的文化特定条件和议程。从理论上讲，它基于戏剧作为循环的发起者的想法，而循环又是表演性的。重点是通过舞台表演及其解释而恢复的社会想象，以及这些想象如何相互塑造对戏剧中心主题、主角和观众地址的解释。本文概述了各种正在发挥作用的社会想象，并确定了构成特定流通文化的文化和社会抽象。通过仔细分析和情境化戏剧评论，研究了该剧与各种北欧戏剧环境之间的相遇。
