Emilie Exner
Emilie Exner , b. von Winiwarter (born March 7, 1850 in Vienna , † April 7, 1909 in Lovran , Istria ) was an Austrian writer , suffragette and artist . As an author she published under the pseudonym Felicie Ewart.
Life
Exner was the daughter of the lawyer Josef von Winiwarter (1809-1903). In 1874 she married the physiologist Sigmund Exner , from the marriage the surgeon Alfred von Exner-Ewarten and the meteorologist Felix Maria von Exner-Ewarten emerged.
Exner was a highly gifted and well-educated woman. She received a thorough unconventional education, which ended with the teacher examination. It was not until the age of 45 that she began to write about literary topics, questions of upbringing and the problems of women. From 1901 to 1906 she was president of the Vienna Women's Employment Association , which increasingly implemented and promoted female, school-based training for working life. The construction of the school and club house IV goes back to her initiative. On the whole, she was rather reserved about more radical demands from the women's movement ; she was friends with the poet Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach and worked intensively in the Vienna People's Education Association . She was buried in an honorary grave at the Vienna Central Cemetery .
