Landquist was engaged in Strindbergsfejden and released August Strindberg"s works. In 1916 he wrote a Gustaf Fröding monograph and was ready to introduce Sigmund Freud"s theory manners in Swedish history of literature. He also translated Freud"s works to Swedish.
Landquist was 1910-1922 married to Elin Wägner and later, from 1938, with Solveig Landquist.
Landquist"s critical recension of the 1946 book Pippi Långstrump was the beginning of a newspaper debate where people protested against Astrid Lindgren"s writing of children books
