Marie Martin

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Marie Martin ( born in Niedermeiser in 1856 - 1926 ) was a German teacher, women's rights activist and essayist.

Act

Marie Martin was one of the most important women's rights activists in the German Empire . During the great reform for girls' education in 1908, she was an essential mediator between the Prussian cultural politician Friedrich Althoff , Adolf von Harnack (a leading head of the reform) and Empress Auguste Viktoria . It was probably thanks to Martin's memorandum “The Cultural Task of Higher Education for Girls” from 1904 that the Empress was committed to these goals of the women's movement.

Marie Martin is one of the first women to appear as organizers of the Evangelical Church Congress .
