Constance Fenimore Woolson

    March 5, 1840 – January 24, 1894

    Constance Fenimore Woolson crafted narratives deeply rooted in the regional colors of the American Midwest and South before turning her attention to the lives of American expatriates in Europe. Her distinctive style and profound interest in character psychology remained consistent throughout her literary career. Woolson's short stories are celebrated as pioneering works of American regionalism, while her novels and essays continue to be studied today through diverse critical lenses, including feminist and postcolonial perspectives.

    • Bevor sie Henry James kennenlernte, schrieb Constance Fenimore Woolson eine ihrer rätselhaftesten Erzählungen, Fräulein Kummer, die in Rom spielt und in der sie die Begegnung zwischen einem Doppelgänger Henry James', einem jungen, selbstgefälligen Schriftsteller und einem Abbild ihrer selbst als verarmte und so talentierte wie verkannte Autorin, literarisch vorwegnahm. Fräulein Kummer ist eine erschütternde Lektüre, die vorausschauend das tragische Ende Woolsons erzählt.
