Ellen Karolina Sofia Key (Småland, 11 dicembre 1849 – 25 aprile 1926) è stata una scrittrice svedese. Conosciuta principalmente per i suoi numerosi scritti in ambito educativo, etico e femminista, fu un importante espondente del Det moderna genombrottet, movimento letterario svedese ispirato al naturalismo. Fu una dei primi sostenitori dell'approccio educativo incentrato attorno al bambino ed una suffraggetta. La sua opera più conosciuta è Il secolo dei fanciulli pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1900.
