Hjalmar

Hjalmar Bergman was a Swedish writer and playwright.

Hjalmar Söderberg was a Swedish novelist and playwright. His works include Doktor Glas (1905). Söderberg is greatly appreciated in his native country, and is sometimes considered to be the equal of August Strindberg, Sweden's national bard. A recent new translation of Doktor Glas into English, as Doctor Glas, and with an introduction by Margaret Atwood, has meant a soar in his popularity in the Anglo-Saxon literary world.

Hjalmar Branting was a Swedish statesman and the country's chief Social Democratic leader. He was Prime Minister of Sweden, serving for three separate periods in 1920, 1922-1923, and 1924-1925. He was the first Swedish Social Democrat to be head of government.
