The
Karoline von Guenderrode Pages
are devoted to the life and works of Karoline von Guenderrode (1780-1806), and apparently are the only pages on the web devoted to a female German writer. These pages include a small number of her works, two bibliographies (on Guenderrode herself and on German women writers and intellectuals of the Goethezeit in general), several textual excursi (complete with footnotes and capsule bibliographies), and two maps of Germany from the turn of the 19th century. Eventually, these pages may eventually expand into a larger series focusing on German women intellectuals during the later eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries.
