Project Runeberg's Publishing Plans

Project Runeberg's editions of Strindberg's works have been unorganized and somewhat chaotic, primarily depending on the available editions and their special copyright conditions. August Strindberg died in 1912, which is more than 70 years ago, so his works are no longer covered by copyright. We currently (1999) have no definite plan for what to publish, but the easiest solution seems to be the 1912--1921 set of 55 volumes, excluding the commentary.

The Swedish publishing house Bonniers in 1912--1921 issued a 55 volume set of his collected works (Samlade skrifter) with a commentary by John Landquist (1881-1974). This commentary, obviously, is still covered by copyright. In 1964 an index to this collection was published (Register till August Strindbergs Samlade skrifter 1-55, 1912-1919, by Lundensiska litteraturs�llskapet). In 1987, Bonniers published a facsimile edition of the 55 volume set.

In 1918--1920, Strindberg's collected unprinted works (Samlade otryckta skrifter) were published in 2 volumes.

Starting in 1981, Stockholm University (litteraturvetenskapliga institution med Lars Dahlb�ck, born 1938) in cooperation with the competing Swedish publishing house Norstedts issues a "national edition" (Nationalupplagan) of Strindberg's collected works. This set is still uncompleted (volume 65 in 1997). Attempts have been made to make this edition freely available on the Internet, but this is in conflict with Norstedts' commercial interests.

Strindberg's letters are collected in original at the Royal Library in Stockholm, and have appeared in 20 printed volumes (10,000 letters to more than 600 recipients 1857--1912) published by Strindbergs�llskapet and Bonniers.

Samlade skrifter, 55 vol., 1912--1921

Early Translations

The chance of publishing English (and maybe French and German) translations of Strindberg's works on the Internet depends on the availability of early translations, that have entered the public domain. In Swedish copyright law, this means the translator must have died more than 70 years ago.

N�r det g�ller �vers�ttningar till �vriga spr�k, fr�mst engelska, franska och tyska, s� g�ller det f�r Projekt Runeberg att hitta s� tidiga �vers�ttningar att upphovsr�tten inte l�ngre g�ller f�r dem, helst samtida med f�rfattaren sj�lv. Att detta n�gon g�ng kan st� i konflikt med valet av b�sta f�rlaga, �r oundvikligt.
