Ebba Witt-Brattström was born at Stockholm in 1953. Her recorded nationality is Sweden. She studied at Stockholm University and Franska Skolan.

Her academic posts were held at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin and Södertörn University.
The recorded fields of work are literary studies and feminism.
The discipline keeps its dead in print, because the arguments are still open.
That the work was done from Sweden matters: philosophical traditions, institutions and the language of publication have never been evenly distributed.
