Abstract
[Machine translation] Women's movements in the 19th century were influenced by role models such as Olympe de Gouges or Mary Wollstonecraft, who called for women's emancipation during the French Revolution and questioned gender role definitions. Dealing with the issue of women also became important in Germany during the Romantic period and in the pre-March period, when specific areas of activity and forms of participation were sought as well as the free development of the personality and improved education of women who became involved on the literary and social level or even on the barricades in 1848. , At the same time, the issue of women was also raised clearly in Italy. The female contribution to the independence and unity struggles of the Risorgimentos was diverse and passionate. Ludmilla Assing's La posizione sociale della donna (The Social Situation of Women, Milan 1866) can also be placed in the literary framework characterized by works by Cecilia de Luna Folliero, Caterina Franceschi Fenucci, Angeica Palli Bartolommei and Salvatore Morelli, among others. In this text, the basic characteristics of Assing's image of women can be identified, which are exemplified by the biographies of women Countess Elisa von Ahlenfeldt (1857) and Sophie La Roche (1859) written before the Italian exile. In Assing's literary images of women, the specifically female sphere of life is combined with patriotic feelings and educational issues, which La posizione sociale della donna deals with on a socio-critical basis and addresses in connection with emancipatory demands in order to show the path to a hoped-for future that is freer and more satisfying for women.
