LEWALD, FANNY (18111889)

This article appears in Volume V16, Page 519 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: LEO-LOB
LEWALD, FANNY (18111889) , German author, was born at
Konigsberg
  in
East
 
Prussia
  on the 24th of
March
  1811, of Jewish parentage. When seventeen years of age she embraced Christianity, and after travelling in Germany, France and Italy, settled in 1845 at Berlin. Here, in 1854, she married the author, Adolf Wilhelm Theodor Stahr (18051876), and removed after his death in 1876 to Dresden, where she resided, engaged in literary
work
 , until her death on the 5th of August 1889. Fanny Lewald is less remarkable for her writings, which are mostly sober, matter-of-fact works, though displaying considerable talent and culture, than for her championship of " women's rights," a question which she was practically the first German woman to take up, and for her scathing
satire
  on the sentimentalism of the Grafin Hahn Hahn. This authoress she ruthlessly attacked in the exquisite parody (Diegena, Roman von Iduna Grafin H . . . . H. . . . (2nd ed., 1847). Among the best known of her novels are Klementine (1842); Prinz Louis Ferdinand (1849; 2nd ed., 1859); Das Madchen von Hela (186o).; Von Geschlecht zu Geschlecht (8 vols., 18631865); Benvenuto (1875), and Stella (1883;
English
  by B. Marshall, 1884). Of her writings in defence of the emancipation of women Osterbriefe fur die Frauen (1863) and Fur and wider die Frauen (187o) are conspicuous. Her autobiography, Meine Lebensgeschichte (6 vols., 18611862), is brightly written and affords interesting glimpses of the literary
life
  of her time.
A selection of her works was published under the title Gesammelte Schriften in 12 vols. (18701874). Cf. K. Frenzel, Erinnerungen and Stromungen (189o).
