The History of Nordic Women's Literature (Danish: Nordisk kvindelitteraturhistorie, Swedish: Nordisk kvinnolitteraturhistoria) is a print and online encyclopedia and biographical dictionary about female Nordic authors. The original print version was written in five volumes (four encyclopedic volumes plus a "bio-bibliographical" volume) over 25 years by about 100 scholars from different Nordic countries. The first volume was published in 1993 in Swedish and Danish and the last in 1998. A digital version was released in Danish, Swedish, and English in 2012. As of February 2015 the online version hosts 235 articles and bibliographical information for 821 writers. It is searchable and organized by name, country, period, and keyword. Each of the four encyclopedic volumes comprises topic-based articles, often grouped thematically. The third volume, for example, is divided into "self", "desire", and "gender and the war".
