Bertha Pauli

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Berta or Bertha Pauli (born November 29, 1878 in Vienna as Bertha Kamilla Schütz ; † November 15, 1927 ibid) was an Austrian journalist .

Life

Berta (Bertha) Pauli, daughter of Bertha and Friedrich Schütz, received a literary and artistic education. From 1899 she was married to the physician Wolfgang Josef Pauli . The marriage had two children: Wolfgang Pauli (awarded the Nobel Prize in 1945 for the discovery of the exclusion principle named after him in the construction of atoms) and Hertha Pauli (writer and artist).

Pauli suffered from pathological anxiety and possibly from an inferiority complex. It has been suggested that this was the reason for her suicide .

Act

As a liberal and emancipated pacifist, Pauli wrote theater reviews (preferably about contemporary drama) for the Neue Freie Presse , but also historical (focus on the French Revolution and Joan of Arc ) and political essays and contributions to the women's movement.

In the 1919 election campaign before the election to the Constituent National Assembly , in which women were allowed to vote for the first time, the socialist Pauli called on women to vote for the Social Democratic Party in the Arbeiter-Zeitung .
