(In)Visible European Connecting Channels: Mapping Nineteenth Century Women’s Writings
Abstract
A research of women’s situation in different European societies is based on the observation that the political and historical events which took place in the 19th century, starting with the French Revolution, opened a new way for important social, economic and cultural changes which helped creating Realism in literature.
It is important to draw attention to the impact of women’s presence on the literary scene, and to the emergence of a women’s literary tradition. The promotion of women as writers in the Romanian society was a slow process that became clearer at the end of the 19th century and the first women writers became known as journalists, feminists, or charity supporters.
European (in)visible connections can be found, by mapping the activities of women writers and taking into account:
- their birthplace: Fanny Seculici, Maria Rosetti, Mite Kremnitz, Anna de Noailles;
- their place of death: Dora d’Ístria, Martha Bibesco and Elena Vacaresco;
- their marrying a foreign husband: Hermiona Asachi, Lucretia Suciu;
- their living abroad Elena Bacaloglu, Hermiona Asachi, Dora d’Ístria;
- their studies accomplished abroad: Margarita Miller Verghy, Ana Marcu Holda and Alexandrina Scriban,
- their position as correspondents for foreign journals: Ruxandra Berindey Mavrocordato, Emilia Lungu Puhallo, Alexandrina Scriban;
- their writing travelogues: Smaranda Gheorghiu, Adela Xenopol,
- their writing in foreign languages: Carmen Sylva, Mite Kremnitz, Martha Bibesco, Margarita Miller-Verghy,
- their membership of European women’s organizations: Eugenia de Reuss Ianculescu or Alexandrina Cantacuzino.
