These are some of the books I am using as I rewrite (and expand) and academic article on the nineteenth century German woman writer Bettine von Arnim. She wrote and published long chatty psuedo-historical epistolary correspondences between a fictionalised version of herself and Goethe, another woman writer and poet (Karoline von Günderrode) and her brother the romantic writer Clemens Brentano. She wrote other things too but these are three books I am most interested in. The work is sometimes slow-going and sometimes not. I've hit a bit of a rough patch right now, but I hope to get back into it very soon. I think I took the picture to remind me about doing so!
