Life

Margarete Stöger-Steiner worked during the First World War as a Red Cross helper ("auxiliary instrument operator") in the operating room of the kuk garrison hospital No. 5 in Obrowitz / Moravia (now the Czech Republic), about which she wrote a book in 1940 with the title In War Against Wounds and Disease . In this book she reports, among other things, on her expert experiences in the administration of anesthesia; In some places, however, the work also contains relatively clear commitments to National Socialism and should therefore be viewed with the necessary distance in this regard ( Wittneben , Hochschulforum Pflege 2/1997, page 12). Later she appeared as a publisher, under the pseudonym Ferwall as a novelist and also as a women's rights activist. After the Second World War she brought Rohrer-Verlag to Austria and took over its management in Innsbruck until 1967.
