description: "Hilma Johanna Ulrika Borelius (1869–1932) was a literary historian who became the first female docent at Lund University in 1910 and a substitute professor in 1922. In 1931 she published a history of Scandinavian literature in German: Die Nordischen Literaturen. Handbuch der Literaturwissenschaft. A strong supporter of the suffrage movement, she chaired the Lund women's association, Föreningen för kvinnans politiska rösträtt i Lund, from its establishment in 1903 until 1908. Borelius frequently contributed articles about female authors to the women's suffrage journals Dagny and Hertha. Throughout her life, she did all she could to strengthen the status of women in Swedish universities."
