Droste-Hülshoff, Annette Elizabeth, Baroness von

    0.03 sec.

Droste-Hülshoff, Annette Elizabeth, Baroness von (1797-1848)

German poet. Although now considered one of the greatest German nature poets, she was unrecognized in her lifetime. Her book of nature poems Heidebilder (1844) is realistic in its exact description of the countryside. She was also preoccupied with the supernatural, as is shown by her cycle of religious poems Das geistliche Jahr, nebst einem Anhang religiöser Gedichte (1851).
