Louise-Victorine Ackermann

Louise-Victorine Ackermann (née Choquet) (30 November 1813 – 2 August 1890) was a French Parnassian poet.

Ackermann was born in Paris, but spent her younger days in more rural surroundings near Montdidier, south-east of Amiens.

In 1838, Victorine Choquet went to Berlin to study German, and there married Paul Ackermann, an Alsatian philologist, in 1843.

After little more than two years of happy married life her husband died, and Madame Ackermann went to live in Nice with a favorite sister.

The volume was enthusiastically reviewed in the Revue des deux mondes for May 1871 by Elme Marie Caro, who, though he deprecated the impiété désespérée of the verses, did full justice to their vigour and the excellence of their form.
