Louise-Victorine Ackermann , b. Choquet (born November 30, 1813 in Paris , † August 3, 1890 in Nice ) was a French writer and member of the Parnassiens .
Life
At the age of 16, Ackermann attended a lyceum in Paris in 1829 and nine years later she began studying German at the Humboldt University in Berlin . During her stay in Berlin , she met the Alsatian philologist Paul Ackermann and married him in 1843.
When her husband died unexpectedly on July 26, 1846, Ackermann settled in Nice and lived there for around 25 years in the household of one of her sisters. Shortly after the end of the war she went back to Paris, where she soon made contact with the Parnassians . Alphonse Lemerre was then able to win her over to collaborate on the later famous anthology Le Parnasse contemporain .
reception
Ackermann's early stories can be assigned to the fantastic, whereas their poetry more closely approximates the pessimism of Arthur Schopenhauer and Alfred de Vigny .
Her collaboration and her publications in magazines such as Revue des Deux Mondes , Mercure de Paris and other periodicals quickly made her known nationwide.
