Sara Maria Danius (5 April 1962 – 12 October 2019) was a Swedish literary critic and philosopher, and a scholar of literature and aesthetics. Danius was professor of aesthetics at Södertörn University,[1] docent of literature at Uppsala University[2] and professor in literary science at Stockholm University.[3]
Danius was a member of the Swedish Academy and its first female permanent secretary.[4] She was one of the central figures in the 2018 controversies resulting in the cancellation of the Nobel Prize in Literature that year and the following restructuring of the academy.[5]
