Summary/Abstract: The article provides an insight into the life and career of the almost forgotten Breslau-based writer Bianca Bobertag (née Marbach). It outlines the topics most frequently discussed in her work, especially the relations in intellectual circles of an academic city, in this case the city of Breslau, which is given a literary identity by the author; as well as women's rights, especially equality in the areas of education and marriage. The article also presents some new traces of Bianca Bobertag's family, whose members all pursued an academic or literary career.
