Torgny Karl Segerstedt (1876-1945) was a Swedish professor and scholar who became editor-in-chief of the newspaper, Goteborgs Handels- och Sjofartstidning. He is remembered for his anti-Nazi campaign with efforts to alert the public of the threat of Fascism in the 1930s. His fears proved poignant and true. He crossed swords with Government with his strong views published in his newspaper which became political as the Swedes were under threat from both the Russians and the Germans simultaneously during World War II.
