Biography
Hedwig Dransfeld was born in Hacheney (now Dortmund), Germany, to the Romberg family (German aristocrats). Her father, Clemens Dransfeld, was a senior forester, and her mother, Elise Fleischhauer, was a doctor's daughter and a Catholic. Dransfeld's father died when she was three, and her mother died five years later. She was brought up by her maternal grandmother until she, too, died, at which point Dransfeld was placed in an orphanage.Шаблон:Citation needed
At the age of sixteen she began to train at the Königlichen Katholischen Lehrerinnen-Seminar ("German Catholic Teachers' Seminar") in Paderborn. During her training, she contracted a form of tuberculosis that entered her bones, and lost her left arm and a heel. Despite this she passed her exams with distinction in 1890 and began a teaching career that culminated in her appointment as headmistress of the Ursuline School in Werl.Шаблон:Citation needed
She began to write and published books of poetry. Later she wrote for Die christliche Frau ("the Christian Woman"), a German newspaper, and in 1905 took over the editorship of that journal and made it an organ of the Katholischen Deutschen Frauenbunds ("Catholic German Women's Federation", abbreviated KDF).[2]
After women were admitted to universities in Germany, in 1908, Dransfield studied Kulturwissenschaft ("Cultural Studies") in Münster and, later, Bonn.Шаблон:Citation needed
In January 1912, she made a noted speech on women in the church and religious life at the first German Women's Congress at the Reichstag in Berlin. The Berlin Vorwärts (a Social-Democratic newspaper) described her as "the most important woman alive today", and in October 1912 she gave up her work as a teacher to become full-time chairman of the KDF.Шаблон:Citation needed
After the November revolution, Dransfeld was nominated for Zentrum für die Weimarer Nationalversammlung ("Centre for the Weimar Republic National Assembly") and Preußischen Landesversammlung ("Prussian National Assembly"). She played a major part of the new social legislation, and from 1920 until her death was a senior member of the Rheinischen Zentrumspartei ("Rhenish Centre Party"). She was also appointed Chairman of the Reich Women's advisory board of that party. In 1922 she retired from chairing the KDF on health grounds, but remained a member of the Reichstag.Шаблон:Citation needed
