Die Münchner Schriftstellerin Carry Brachvogel - Literatin, Salondame, Frauenrechtlerin

The once famous author Carry Brachvogel (1864–1942) led the life of a successful and emancipated pioneer among the cultural greats of Munich during a period of great upheaval – she was employed, a single mother, and Jewish. Historian Judith Ritter presents the life, work, and identity of this modern female writer, who was already promoting women’s self-determination in 1911: 'For a woman, to be modern means following your own personal law.'
