- This paper is based on qualitative research on commuting and womens everyday lives. In the project Re-reading time-geography from a feminist perspective, labour force mobility is an important way of analysing womens time-space use and identifying the constraints experienced when organising everyday life. We claim that time-geography provides a useful set of analytical tools that successfully collaborate with social science theory such as gender studies. Time-geography has been questioned by feminists as well as others. However, we argue that time-geography could provide gender studies with a close, empathic and micro-levelled interventional approach that makes obstacles and constraints due to spatio-temporal conditions visible and thereby changeable. In this paper we use results from previous research to prove that time-geography is an approach with several sets of useful concepts that describe and analyse womens everyday struggles and possibilities in an era in which mobility and transport have become undisputed factors of everyday life. In order to do this, time-geography needs to be read from a gendered standpoint. Although we are still in the formative stages of this re-reading of original texts and the formation of additional sets of concepts, the indications are that this work is worth pursuing and expanding.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This study explores re-creation processes, through transmedia storytelling, that are made visible in the Swedish TV-programme Helt lyriskt (2018), where music artists transmediate Swedish poems into songs. The aim is to analyse, through a close-reading method, two episodes of Helt lyriskt in order to discuss how processes of transmedia storytelling make literary analyses visible and accessible to the general public. The analysis shows that the episodes employ pedagogical strategies to encourage the audience to partake in, and learn about, poetry and how to conduct literary analyses. One strategy is to illuminate the artists’ interpretation and analysis processes. Thus, the audience experiences the textual and musical adaptations that the artist Molly Sandén makes in her re-creation of Edith Södergran’s “Vierge moderne” (1916), in which she transfers the main theme of the poem, the early twentieth-century modern woman, to a song intended for the modern woman of today. Another strategy, brought up in relation to Annika Norlin’s re-creation of Karin Boye’s “I rörelse” (1927), is to question what liberties may be taken with a literary work, when she adopts the main theme of the poem, to always strive for more, by adding self-composed lyrics to the poem.
