Cultural research and the role of academies. The Royal Swedish Academy of Letters, History and Antiquities

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  13 July 2009

Abstract

The article discusses various aspects of cultural research from the point of view of academies. More specifically it aims at outlining the history of The Royal Academy of Letters, History and Antiquities in Stockholm, which was officially responsible for the cultural heritage of Sweden until the 1970s. Since then it has become an independent learned society for the humanities and social sciences, but it still takes a great interest in ancient monuments and the protection of culturally precious milieus.
