Condición: Wie Neu. Zustandsbeschreibung: Mängelexemplar. A Study of Selected Fictional Works by Hedwig Dohm, Isolde Kurz, and Helene Böhlau. This study compares the contributions of the three writers to modern women's literature and their relation to the women's movement. In their lifetime, Hedwig Dohm (1831-1919) and Helene Böhlau (1856-1940) earned the praise of women's rights activists such as Minna Cauer and Helene Stöcker for their contributions to modern women's literature. Dohm engaged in debates on the women's movement with Lou Andreas-Salomé, Ellen Key, and Laura Marholm. Böhlau shocked the reading public with her novel "Halbtier", in which a woman triumphs after killing an abusive man. On the other hand, Isolde Kurz (1853-1944), who distanced herself from the women's movement, seems the odd woman out. Yet boundaries among these writers are more fluid than expected, especially in their portrayals of sexuality and spirituality. 177 Seiten, gebunden (Studies in Modern German Literature; Vol. 75/Peter Lang Verlag 1995).
