[edit] Some suggestions for further reading

In case somebody wants to work more on Johannes Magnus, Lindroth's SBL article is a start, and far more up-to-date than Nordisk familjebok or Svenskt biografiskt handlexikon. Then there are Johan Nordström's posthumously published Johannes Magnus och den götiska romantiken: akademiska föreläsningar 1929, Stockholm: Almqvist & Wiksell international, 1975[1], and Kurt Johannesson's Gotisk renässans: Johannes och Olaus Magnus som politiker och historiker, Stockholm: Almqvist & Wiksell international, 1982 [2](English translation: The Renaissance of the Goths in sixteenth-century Sweden: Johannes and Olaus Magnus as politicians and historians, Berkeley: University of California Press, 1991[3]) There is also a recent chapter by Johannesson, "Med historien som vapen", in Signums svenska kulturhistoria. Renässansen (2005), p. 61-85.[4] An edition of his letters: Johannes Magnus' Latin letters: a critical edition with introduction and commentary, ed. Brita Larsson, Lund: Lund Univ. Press; Bromley: Chartwell-Bratt, 1992[5]. Olaus 15:12, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
