Hen was first introduced to the Swedish language in the 1960s but did not gain much attention then. However, as the topic of gender became more and more widely discussed in Sweden, the question of hen came up again in the 2000s, receiving indisputably more interest than before. In 2012 the “hen debate” was sparked by Jesper Lundqvist’s book and as a result hen became a part of everyday language, especially in the media and politics. But only six picture books with hen have been published so far. Hence, it cannot be concluded that hen has established its place in this kind of literature.</p>}, number={3(23)}, journal={Studia Scandinavica}, author={Klimont, Anna}, year={2019}, month={grudz.}, pages={175–183} }
