Author Information

ELSE LASKER-SCHÜLER (1869–1945) was the daughter of a well-to-do Jewish banker and builder, Else SchÜler gave up her bourgeois existence as a doctor's wife for the artistic, social, and political uncertainties that would characterize the rest of her life. The death of her beloved son in 1927 also marked the beginning of Lasker-SchÜler's years of tragedy, loss, and dislocation, culminating in her flight from Nazi Germany to Switzerland and then Jerusalem, where she ended her days as an eccentric pauper. JANE CURTIS is a teacher, translator, and free-lance musician. She lives in Springfield, Virginia. INCA MOLINA RUMOLD is associate professor of German and comparative literature at DePaul University in Chicago.
