It examines her extensive letter exchange with the literary figure Sigmund von Birken, highlighting how their epistolary relationship reveals Greiffenberg’s daily writing scenes, creative process, and efforts to sustain her devotional mission, Deoglori ("glory to God"), amid social, religious, and personal challenges. The letters provide insight into her balancing of literary production, family duties, and religious activism, while also illustrating the collaborative and performative nature of early modern writing. This correspondence is presented as a valuable resource for understanding Greiffenberg’s unique style and the broader cultural context of women’s writing in the Baroque period. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Literary Criticism src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Feminist German Studies is the property of University of Nebraska Press and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
