Английская Википедия:Ernestine von Fürth
Ernestine von Fürth, née Kisch (5 October 1877, Prague – 31 October 1946, Washington, D.C.)[1] was an Austrian-Jewish women's activist, a founding member of the "Neuen Wiener Frauenklub" (New Vienna Women's Club), chairwoman of the Austrian women's suffrage committee, and editor for the "Шаблон:Ill" (Journal for Women's Suffrage) in Austria.[2]
Life
Although she was an important activist in Austrian history, relatively little is known about Ernestine von Fürth's private life. Born Ernestine Kisch to a wealthy Prague family, she married the court lawyer Шаблон:Ill,[3] who was at that time a member of the Viennese Sozialpolitische Partei (Social-Political Party). Both converted from Judaism in 1905. in 1906, Ernestine von Fürth founded the Austrian women's suffrage committee alongside Leopoldine Glöckel. The establishment of a legal women's suffrage association was not initially possible because the law prohibited women from membership in legal associations. In March 1912, Fürth was also a leading participant in the convening of the first Austrian women's suffrage conference in Vienna, which was intended to unite the Cisleithanien women's suffrage associations under one umbrella organization.
Her son was the lawyer and economist Herbert Furth,[3] a member of the same circle as Ludwig von Mises and Friedrich August von Hayek. The mother and son fled together to the United States in 1938 to avoid persecution under the rise of National Socialism and the Nazi regime.
Ernestine von Fürth passed away on 31 October, 1946, in Washington D.C.[4]
