Madame de Staël
Germaine de Staël (1766–1817) was a French-Swiss writer and intellectual, known for her influential works on Romanticism and her outspoken political views during the tumultuous times of the French Revolution and the Napoleonic era. A prominent salonnière, she hosted a literary salon that became a hub for the exchange of ideas among leading thinkers, writers, and politicians of her time. Her novels, such as "Delphine" and "Corinne," explored themes of individualism and the role of women in society, challenging the conventions of her day. An ardent critic of Napoleon, she was exiled from France for her opposition to his regime, which only added to her notoriety. Madame de Staël's legacy endures through her contributions to literature, philosophy, and the promotion of Romantic ideals across Europe.
