Louise von François and «Die letzte Reckenburgerin»: A Feminist Reading
Although nearly forgotten today, Louise von François (1817-1893) enjoyed until the collapse of the Weimar Republic a reputation as one of Germany's outstanding women writers. Her life and work provide a fruitful testing ground for current feminist methodologies and theories. This study examines François's literary career as an example of the «anxiety of authorship,» presents a reading of François's finest novel, Die letzte Reckenburgerin (1870), and traces the reception of that novel.
