EDITORS COMMENTS
In this lithograph, we are transported back to the 10th century as Hrotsvitha of Gandersheim, a remarkable German canoness, dramatist, and poet, presents her book Gesta Ottonis to Emperor Otto II. The scene unfolds in the presence of Gerberga II, Abbess of Gandersheim Abbey and niece of the emperor. The image captures a momentous occasion where literature meets royalty and religion. Hrotsvitha's confident demeanor reflects her talent and intellect as she shares her literary creation with one of the most powerful men in Europe. Her book is not only an offering but also a testament to her skill as an author and playwright. Emperor Otto II appears intrigued by Hrotsvitha's work, his gaze fixed on the pages before him. Gerberga II stands beside him, observing with pride as she witnesses two influential figures from different realms come together through their shared love for knowledge. This print serves as a reminder that even in medieval times when women faced numerous obstacles in pursuing intellectual endeavors, there were exceptional individuals like Hrotsvitha who defied societal norms and left an indelible mark on history. Through this artwork by Albrecht Durer or Duerer after A Schalck de la Faverie's illustration from "La Femme dans la Nature" we gain insight into the rich cultural tapestry of Germany during the Middle Ages while celebrating the achievements of these extraordinary women.
