Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: PER-PIG
PICHLER, KAROLINE (1769-1843) , Austrian novelist, was born at Vienna on the 7th of September 1769, the daughter of Hofrat Franz von Greiner, and married, in 1796, Andreas Pichler, a government official. For many years her salon was the centre of the literary
life
  in the Austrian
capital
 , where she died on the 9th of July 1843. Her early works, Olivier, first published anonymously (1802), Idyllen (1803) and
Ruth
  (1805), though displaying considerable talent, were immature. She made her mark in historical romance, and the first of her novels of this class,
Agathocles
  (18o8), an
answer
  to Gibbon's attack on that hero in the Decline and Fall of the
Roman
 
Empire
 , attained
great
 . popularity. Among her other novels may be mentioned Die Belagerung Wiens (1824); Die Schweden in Prag (1827); Die Wiedereroberung Of ens (1829) and Henriette von
England
  (1832). Her last
work
  was Zeitbilder (184o).
The edition of Karoline Pichler's Samtliche Werke (18201845) comprises no less than 6o volumes. Her Denkwurdigkeiten aus meinem Leben (4 vols.) was published posthumously in 1844. Aselection of her narratives, Ausgewdhlt Erzahlungen, appeared in 4 vols. in 1894.
