	glbtq >> arts >> Elbe, Lili
		Lili Elbe was "born" one day while filling in for Gerda's absentee model; Gerda asked Einar to wear stockings and heels so that she could substitute Einar's legs for those of her model.
		After Elbe's series of surgeries--she traveled from Copenhagen to Berlin and Dresden for four operations--she was able to obtain a passport issued under her female name and to have her marriage annulled by the King of Denmark himself.
		Elbe had intended to get married after undergoing a final operation to complete her transition; she hoped to become a mother at some point, and it appears that her doctor believed this was biologically possible through surgery.

	Lili Elbe - Transsexual
		It’s highly probable that Lili Elbe was an intersexed transsexual woman, for it’s certain that a hypogonadisn was present, together with a hormonal imbalance towards the female range (as her medical examinations proved), and her body-type was also feminine, allowing her to pass quite easily.
		Lili Elbe was under the care of Dr. Warnekros (in the Dresden Women's Clinic), who was a pioner in the field of gynaecology of that time.
		Lili Elbe is undoubtedly one of the most favourite and lovable personalities of the early 20th century transsexual community.

		The river Elbe was running dark and fast, and the city, a ghost of its former self, sat sternly beneath a sky sagging with a late snow.
		He was dead but unburied, and Lili, who very much believed she was a different soul than Einar, had to live with a history that was and was not her own.
		It was a big story at the time, but when Lili Elbe died in 1931, even the most sympathetic newspapers in Copenhagen reported it as more of a footnote than as a summary of a remarkable event.

	Providentia: Becoming Lili
		Einar so relished the feeling of dressing as a woman that he invented a whole new identity, "Lili Elbe" (often introduced as Gerda's sister) who was frequently seen during Carnival in Paris in the years that followed.
		It was even said that Lili turned down a marriage proposal from one of her many admirers (a nobleman no less).
		Not only would Lili be an anatomical woman, but ovaries and a uterus would be transplanted to enable her to bear children (the ovaries were quickly removed due to transplant rejection and other medical complications).

	[No title]
		Lili Elbe faints at the sight of blood.[17] Jan Morris, a world-class journalist who has been around the block a few times, still describes her sense of herself in relation to makeup and dress, of being on display, and is pleased when men open doors for her: I feel small, and neat.
		Hitherto Lili has been like clay which others had prepared and to which the Professor has given form and life...by a single glance the Professor awoke her heart to life, a life with all the instincts of woman.[25] The female is immanent, the female is bone-deep, the female is instinct.
		But there are more than sufficient problems with Lili Elbe's True Story, not the least of which is the scene in which Elbe finally "becomes a woman" by virtue of her physician's implanting into her abdominal cavity a set of human ovaries.

	BOOKS OF THE TIMES; Radical Change and Enduring Love - New York Times
		The historical fact is that in 1931 a Danish painter named Einar Wegener became the first man ever to be transformed surgically into a woman, changing her name to Lili Elbe and eventually leaking her story to the press.
		Lili's belief that she possesses an individual will separate from Einar's and her early experiences of sexual awareness are presented with a wonderful, believable intimacy.
		There is a moment near the end of the novel when Lili, her transformation nearly complete, says something that for the first time brings Greta face to face with the fullness of her loss.

		After it was over, Lili was a reality; however, another reality was the end of the couple's marriage.
		Gerda married an Italian diplomat and moved to Morocco, and Lili began pursuing an affair with her doctor.
		Lili also had two more operations and by 1931 she felt complete, but for one detail: she felt that it was necessary that she have ovaries to be a real woman.

		When his wife, also a painter and his former student, asks him to pose for the legs of a portrait she is painting of a female subject, Einar begins the transition to becoming Lili Elbe, both psychically and physically.
		I also came across Lili Elbe’s diaries, which were published right after her death in 1933 and those were very, very important to writing this book.
		I went to the Royal Academy of Art in Copenhagen where Einar and his wife were students, and that’s when I first saw some of the images of the paintings of Lili by Einar’s wife, who in reality was [Danish and] named Gerda, but I [made her an American from Pasadena, and] named her Greta.

		Einar agrees and as he pulls on her stockings, slips into her yellow shoes and finally draws over his head the soprano's dress, he stirs up in himself a remote sensation that he might be in part be a woman.
		Einar dresses more and more as Lili - the name given to her by Greta - and what started off as a game becomes a way of life for Greta and Einar.
		Lili is liberated too and increasingly becomes Greta's companion.

		Little remained to remind one of Dresden circa 1930, the view from the terrace only spoke of the air raids of February 1945; of the quartering of the German nation a few months later; of the long haul through the Soviet reign; of the wall a few hours to the north crumbling in November 1989.
		The wind was sharp and I sealed my eyes against its bite, and there, in the half-instant of a blink, lay the old Dresden where Einar arrived one cold day in 1930 in order to transform himself once and for all into a pretty shy girl named Lili.
		For Lili Elbe, that young Danish woman whom Greta Waud first brought into daylight, had a history and a memory that belonged to Einar--but did it really?

		Most of our readers will have heard mention of the Danish artist Einar Wegener, who became Lily Elbe, in what is said to have been the first sex-role reassignment in the 1930's.
		This book, on the other hand, is Lili's own story, prepared by Neils Hoyer from the papers that Lili left behind at her death and at her request.
		It describes Lili's progress, her doubts and fears, and the support of good friends, and especially her wife, Grete.

		For a very real drama it is. Einar struggles with his inclinations to become the woman he and his wife, Greta, refer to as Lili, seemingly more agonized about what the change would mean than Greta, who is deeply loving and amazingly supportive throughout Einar's long ordeal.
		Right through the early stages of Einar's transformation into Lili, it almost seems like Greta is coaxing Lili out of Einar's closet without a thought for the implications of their relationship.
		But Ebershoff took his time to get it right--making sure that that the time and place were thoroughly integrated into the reflections and actions of the husband and wife who rose to a such an enormous challenge in their marriage.

		Unfortunately, Lili Elbe's life as a surgically transformed woman ended in 1931 with her death.
		The author expertly weaves these facts, which were the inspiration for this novel, into a lyrically written, haunting narrative about two people who were bound to each other by an unconditional love that would transcend the conventional.
		The author leads the reader through Lili's gradual metamorphosis, her poignant self-realization, and the final denouement of the marriage.

		Greta's only consolation is to be a footnote in the history of sex-change surgery, as the first woman who loved a man who became a woman.
		And to this male reviewer, his characterisation of both Greta and the Lili component of Einar's psyche is persuasive.
		However, Greta - who indulges her husband's split existence and loves Lili as much as she does Einar - accepts that he can only be truly happy as a "she".
