Hrosvitha

born с 935
died с 1000

German writer, regarded as the first German woman poet.

Of noble birth, she lived as a nun in a Benedictine convent most of her life. There she wrote six prose comedies in Latin (с 960), based in form on those of Terence but embodying Christian themes, to edify her fellow nuns. She also wrote narrative poems based on Christian legends and two verse chronicles.

      regarded as the first German woman poet.

      Of noble birth, Hrosvitha spent most of her life as a nun in the Benedictine convent at Gandersheim. In an effort to counteract the pagan morality expressed in classical works, Hrosvitha wrote (c. 960) six comedies in Latin, based on Terence, but embodying Christian themes. Written in a rough, partly rhymed prose, they were meant to provide edification for her sister nuns and were not to be compared to the vain pleasures of more felicitous secular documents. They were also meant for reading rather than performance. The manuscripts of Hrosvitha's plays were rediscovered c. 1500 by the German Humanist scholar Conradus Celtis. Hrosvitha's other works include narrative poems based on Christian legends and two verse chronicles: one on the feats of Otto the Great and the other on the history of the convent of Gandersheim from its founding in 856 to the year 919.
