Karl Fredrik Dahlgren (1791–1844), Swedish poet At a time when literary partisanship ran high in Sweden, and the writers divided themselves into Goths and Phosphorists, Dahlgren made himself indispensable to the Phosphorists by his polemical activity.
In the mock-heroic poem of Markall's somnlosa nutter (Markall's "Sleepless Nights"), in which the Phosphorists ridiculed the academician Per Adam Wailmark and others, Dahigren, who was a genuine humorist, took a prominent part.
