Marie von Suttner
Marie (Maria Louise) Baroness von Suttner (born November 22, 1873 in Vienna ; † 1948 ) was an Austrian writer and novelist .
biography
Bertha von Suttner's niece was the daughter of Carl Gundaccar Freiherr von Suttner (* 1842; † December 8, 1889), Ministerialsekretär in the K. u. K. Agriculture Ministry in Vienna, and the Countess Luise von und zu Firmian and Meggel, born. She had three brothers.
She was brought up in a monastery until she was 16 , before moving into the household of her aunt Bertha. Her father's brother, Arthur Gundaccar von Suttner , Bertha's husband, had a significant influence on their beliefs. She lived at Harmannsdorf Castle near Eggenburg , the headquarters of the Suttners , wrote feature articles for domestic and foreign magazines, published translations and wrote novels. For Bertha this coexistence was very tragic, as you could see from her diaries, because a love affair developed between Marie and her uncle, which Marie in her novel How it became light! unveiled in June 1898. This triangular relationship did not end until his death in 1902. In 1905 she married Emil von Haebler and moved with him to Gutenbichl Castle near Schönstein in Lower Styria , now Slovenia. She died in 1948.
17 years after the Second World War, a sanatorium for "partisan heroes" was set up in the castle.
