Life

Marianne Naaff-Eggersberg was born Maria Anna Peinl in Kaaden, today Kadaň, in 1852 . Her parents were the bourgeois master butcher Aloys Karl Peinl (1822–1872) and Johanna Theresia geb. Tobisch (1820-1913). The mother was born in Sporitz near Komotau and comes from the Bohemian farmer and scholar family Tobisch . Archdechant Franz Wenzl Tobisch in Teplitz and the royal Prussian professors Johann Karl Tobisch and Vinzenz Eugen Tobisch in Breslau were their father's brothers. The vice president of the higher regional court Eduard Tobisch in Brüx was her cousin.

She wrote her first poems and short stories while she was still in school at the community school in Kaaden. At the age of 17, Maria Anna Peinl married the wealthy businessman Franz Xaver Rippaus (1835–1909) on September 18, 1869. He was the founder and owner of the renowned wholesale company F. Rippaus & Neffe based in Kaaden. In 1876 he had a spacious city ​​palace built for himself and his young wife on the Ringplatz in Kaaden, in the immediate vicinity of the town hall. For many years Rippaus was city ​​councilor and president of the Kaadener Aktien-Zuckerfabrik (founded in 1871). The marriage of the Rippaus couple remained childless.

In the following years, Marianne Rippaus published the first poems and stories. From 1881 she wrote under the pseudonym Marianne Eggersberg (also Marianne von Eggersberg and Marianne Edle von Tobschan ) for the culture and music newspaper Die Lyra . She probably chose her stage name based on the Egerberk Castle in the Duppau Mountains . In the Teplitz-Schönauer Anzeiger she regularly published local short stories, short stories, folk tales and poems, but also several articles about the Tobisch family of poets, from whom she was descended. In 1894 she published an eight-part excerpt from the travel diary of her great uncle, Franz Wenzl Tobisch, who traveled to Italy with the Clary-Aldringen princely family from 1818 to 1819 .

Her lyrical works have appeared in several edited volumes and have been set to music. From the end of the 1880s she lived as a freelance writer and poet in Vienna. She had a very close friendship with the editor and editor Anton August Naaff (1850–1918). Both lived in the Lyra home at Herbeckstrasse 54 in Vienna-Gersthof . In 1885 he dedicated the poem Das todte Herz to her . Later she became his partner. Among her guests in Herbeckstrasse were Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach , Carola Bruch-Sinn and Guido von List . Due to the surprising death of Anton August Naaff in 1918, Marianne Eggersberg became his heir. Since then she has continued the Lyra-Chorverlag , also based at Herbeckstrasse 54 and founded in 1881 .

Marianne Eggersberg worked as a poet and writer into old age. A comprehensive appraisal of her life's work was published on her 80th birthday. She died in May 1938 and was buried on June 2 in the Vienna Central Cemetery. Her estate will be kept in the Vienna Library in the City Hall together with that of her partner Anton August Naaff .
