    Sammanfattning : This dissertation aims to explore the tension between modernism and local-colour literature as registered in the works of four Swedish writers from the immediate post-war era: the novels Hitom himlen (‘This Side of Heaven’, 1946) by Stina Aronson (1892–1956), Bröllopsbesvär (‘Wedding Worries’, 1949) by Stig Dagerman (1923–1954), and Tjärdalen (‘The Tar Still’, 1953) by Sara Lidman (1923–2004), as well as the short story ‘Pingstbrud’ (‘Whitsun Bride’) from the prose collection Nyare berättelser (‘Newer Stories’, 1949) by Tage Aurell (1895–1976). How are the provincial communities in these works portrayed socially and linguistically? In what ways, discursively and narratologically, has the setting been traellnsformed into a literary mate­rial and applied as part of a deliberate poetics? Is it possible to understand these works as a distinctive literary movement in the history of Swedish literature?The examination of the individual works approaches these questions through a linguistic and narrative analysis, that focuses on the use of dialects, free indirect discourse, and certain context-specific discourses, such as gossip, as well as the portrayal of the social norms of the rural communities portrayed.
