Biography

Louise Brachmann was born in Rochlitz, Saxony, to a civil service father and a cultured mother. Responsible for her education, Louise's mother was close to the Hardenberg family, which included the celebrated poet Novalis. [1] Louise's mother introduced her to Novalis, who, recognizing Brachmann's talent and potential, recommended her to Friedrich von Schiller. Brachmann contributed to Schiller's journals the Die Horen and Musenalmanach. In 1800, four years after her first suicide attempt, her parents, sister, and three close friends died. She met Sophie Mereau in Jena, where she published poems and short stories in modern journals. However, she failed to find a publisher to sponsor her work in her lifetime. Brachmann's second suicide attempt was thwarted and, a few days later, she drowned herself in the river Saale in Halle, Germany.
