Karin Hedvig Viveka Adelswärd, nee Lindegren (b. March 17, 1942, Oscar's parish in Stockholm), is a Swedish baroness, linguist and professor emerita in conversation research. Upon her retirement, she worked at the Department of Theme Communication at Linköping University.[1] Adelswärd wrote Svenska Dagbladet's column Språkspalten in 1995–2011. She writes columns in Östgöta Correspondent.[2]

Biography

Adelswärd received her doctorate in 1988. Her research concentrates on how people understand and misunderstand each other in conversation. She has analyzed trials, job interviews, negotiations, school quarterbacks, interviews with young men seeking armed service, doctor-patient interviews, and stories of various kinds. She has also taken an interest in everyday conversation, so-called private rhetoric.

In addition to scientific publications, including some in English, Adelswärd has written several popular science books, e.g., "Talk, laughter, gossip, and Quarrels", "Women's Language and Women's Talk", and "Word on the Slide". She has held seminars and lectures and has been interviewed on radio and newspapers about her research. In several Nordic countries, Viveka Adelswärd has received less attention in academic linguistic contexts.

In 2005, Viveka Adelswärd received the Swedish Academy's language conservation prize of SEK 50,000 mainly for her studies on conversation. On August 3, 1992, she debuted as a summer host in Summer in Sweden's Radio P1 program. She is a member of the Måltidsakademien in Stockholm, Brukskultur in Åtvidaberg and the Hagdahlsakademien.

She is involved in local cultural life in her hometown of Åtvidaberg. She has been chairman of the association Brukskultur where she has written articles about Adelsnäs, part of the Barony Adelswärd among other things

Viveka Adelswärd is the widow of the court huntsman, Baron Johan Adelswärd, and is thus allowed to title herself a baroness – the only one in Sweden.
