Beschreibung:
this article examines the ways in which the scientific work, life and death of sofia Kovalevskaia, the first female professor of mathematics in modern Europe, were represented in approaches to women's role in scholarship and culture in Germany at the turn of the twentieth century. Kovalevskaia's greatest scholarly successes and early death coinceded with the period of most intense debate on women's admission to higher education Germany, and her example came to be extensively discussed by supporters and opponents alike. the various ways in which the story of the woman methematician was portrayed were symptomatic of what was at stake in the question of women's entry to university in the German Empire
