TITLE: “Women’s Question,” in _In the Struggle for Bread and Spirit: Representations from the Life and Development of the German Transylvanian Woman _. DESCRIPTION: The paper, from a 1927 volume, briefly sketches out the biographies of three outstanding Transylvanian Saxon women activists from the pre-World War I period: Luise Geifrig-Korodi, Marie Stritt and Adele Zay. Luise Geifrig-Korodi, the sister of Transylvanian Saxon politician Lutz Korodi, studied photography at the Lette-Verein in Berlin and opened her own atelier in the same city in 1894. She mainly worked for illustrated magazines, specializing on cityscapes, the social documentary genre, and portraits of famous people in work settings. She was also elected to the executive committee of the Union for Germandom Abroad (Verein für das Deutschtum im Ausland). Marie Stritt (1855-1928) was a Saxon woman who achieved even greater prominence abroad. She was born in Schäßburg/Sighișoara/Segesvár into the family of Joseph and Therese Bacon, him an art-loving physician and her the hostess of a women’s salon and a promoter of feminist ideas. Having settled in Dresden upon marrying a German citizen, Stritt embarked on a public career to criticize the country’s outdated family law and to found the Women’s Legal Protection League (Rechtsschutzverein für Frauen). She was elected to the board of the Union of German Women’s Associations (Bund Deutscher Frauenvereine), which she later also presided for ten years. She rose to wider fame as the representative of the German women’s movement at international events. She also led the Imperial Society for Women’s Suffrage (Deutscher Verband für Frauenstimmrecht) between 1911 and 1919. Adele Zay (1848-1928) was the one of the three who spent most of her life in Transylvania. Zay traveled widely in Europe and increasingly advocated women’s equality and suffrage. She was a leading representative of the General Women’s Association of the Transylvanian Evangelical Church (Augustan Confession) (Allgemeiner Frauenverein der evangelischen Landeskirche A.B. in Siebenbürgen), founded in 1884. Sister of the later liberal politician Adolf Zay, she started her professional career teaching French and German in a Bucharest orphanage in the early 1870s, only later to receive proper training as a teacher in Vienna and Szeged. For several decades, she taught prospective kindergarten teachers in Kronstadt/Brașov/Brassó. She stood at the forefront of the struggle for the employment of female teachers within Transylvanian Evangelical Church, and she correspondended with leading figures of the German women’s movement. She was also co-author of a textbook of Hungarian for students of German civil schools (Bürgerschulen).

TITLE: With United Forces: Official Bulletin of the Alliance of Women’s Organizations of Hungary, Vol. 3, July-August 1912. DESCRIPTION: This journal issue is part of a selection of journals documenting the history of the Hungarian-speaking women’s movement in the Hungarian Kingdom in the Habsburg Monarchy. All issues available from 1909 to 1914 in the Országos Széchényi Könyvtár [Hungarian National Library] are included in this digital archive. As indicated in its subtitle, Egyesült Erővel (With United Forces) was the Official Bulletin of the Alliance of Women’s Organizations of Hungary (Magyarországi Nőegyesületek Szövetsége) and most of the associations forming the alliance. The alliance was established in 1904 and had 78 members in 1909. The journal gives information on the activities of the alliance, including its general assemblies and the activities of many Hungarian women’s associations. Repeatedly mentioned, among others, are the Budapest Israelite Women’s Association (Budapesti Izraelita Nőegylet) and other Jewish women’s associations, the Hungarian Welfare Women’s Association of Brassó [Brasov, Kronstadt] (Brassói Magyar Jótékony Nőegylet), the Klotild Assocation for the Marketing of Women’s Work (A női munkát értékesitő Klotild egylet), the National Association of Hungarian Farmer Women (Magyar Gazdasszonyok Országos Egyesülete), the Maria Dorothea Association (Mária Dorothea Egyesület), the National Association for Women’s Education (Országos Nőképző Egyesület), the Hungarian Association against the Traffic in Girls (Magyar Egyesület a Leánykereskedés ellen), the National Association of Woman Employees (Nőtisztviselők Országos Egyesülete), the National Catholic Association for the Protection of Women (Országos Kath. Nővédő Egyesület), and the Tabitha Women’s Association (Tabitha-Nőegylet). ¶ Egyesült Erővel regularly reported on congresses, news, and activities related to international organizations, including those by and for women and women’s movements of other countries. The journal published articles about various questions, institutions, and activities considered relevant for the women’s movement and women’s organizing in Hungary, in other countries, and in transnational perspective. It also included book reviews. The journal thus constitutes a key source of information in particular on the history of the more moderate wing of the Hungarian women’s movement and its international context. Non-Hungarian women’s activism in the Hungarian Kingdom is barely mentioned (see vol. 2, July-October 1911, p. 126); therefore, silenced in the journal. The organizations of social-democratic women were not covered by the journal. The liberal-progressive Feminist Association (Feministák Egyesülete) was a member of the Alliance and is repeatedly mentioned. The Feminist Association (Feministák Egyesülete) published its own journal, however, which is available online elsewhere. The journals of the social democratic women, Nőmunkás (Woman Worker) and the Catholic women’s movement, Értesítő (Information), are partially available in this digital archive.
