Anna Maria Lasinsky

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Anna-Maria Lasinsky , née Knapp (born March 8, 1782 in Heidelberg , † June 19, 1839 in Koblenz ), was a German romantic poet.

Life

Lasinsky was the great niece of the Vice Chancellor of the Duchy of Jülich-Berg , Georg Joseph von Knapp . She was married to the Polish-German nobleman Friedrich-Karl von Lasinsky and had two sons with him, both of whom became well-known painters, August Gustav Lasinsky and Johann Adolf Lasinsky . Her husband Friedrich Karl was previously treasurer at the court of Stanislaus II August Poniatowski in Warsaw and came to Germany as a refugee from the revolution. Before that, he had lost the castle and his family's goods in Lithuania in the course of the revolutionary upheavals. In 1809 he was the "mounted collector of indirect taxes" for the canton of Simmern in the French Rhine-Moselle department . The couple gave up their titles in the course of the occupation by French revolutionary troops. An edition of her love and nature poetry was published in Koblenz in 1827 by the French publisher Pierre Bernard Francois Hériot , who had come to Germany with the revolutionary troops. Her poems are shaped by religiosity and the romanticism of nature.
