| | Elisabeth von Arnim - LoveToKnow 1911 |
 | | ELISABETH (BETTINA) VON ARNIM (1785-18J9), German authoress, sister of Klemens Brentano, was born at Frankforton-Main on the 4th of April 1785. |
 | | After being educated at a convent school in Fritzlar, she lived for a while with her grandmother, the novelist, Sophie Laroche (1731-1807), at Offenbach, and from 1803 to 1806 with her brother-in-law, Friedrich von Savigny, the famous jurist, at Marburg. |
 | | Equally fantastic is her correspondence Die Giinderode (1840), with her unhappy friend, the poet, Karoline von Giinderode (1780-1806), who committed suicide, and that with her brother Klemens Brentano, under the title Klemens Brentanos Friihlingskranz (1844). |
