Hedvig Lofwenskiold

Hedvig Apollonia Lofwenskiold, as married Lillienanckar (1736 - 1789), was a Swedish writer, lady of letters and poet.

She was the daughter of the official and poet Henrik Anders Lofvenskiold and the niece of the poet Charlotta Lofgren. The correspondence between her and her colleagues Charlotta Lofgren, Samuel Alf and Hedwig Walldorff is preserved. She was a member of the literary society Apollini Sacra, a daughter academy of the Utile Dulci. In one poem, she states that the intellectual inferiority of females was the consequence of the lack of education and knowledge and that given the same schooling, the intellect of the genders would be equal.
