ABSTRACT During the nineteenth century the role of women was very much restricted. In the geosciences, women were not able to study and thus even less able to publish. Here the work of one female writer is presented who, due to her upbringing in an intellectual family with close connections to the most celebrated scientists in Prussia/Germany, such as Alexander von Humboldt, the mineralogist Christian Samuel Weiss, Ernst Haeckel and many others, was aware of scientific progress and the discussions of the times. Based on her unusual education by teachers and scientists and her intellectual abilities, and knowledge acquired through marriage to a well-established geoscientist, she wrote popular juvenile literature that included geological and palaeontological content. This scientific content was typically woven into fairy tales or novels for adolescent girls and served as a way to spread geoscientific knowledge to a large audience.

CLEMENTINE HELM BEYRICH (1825–1896),19 世纪中欧地球科学女性传播者的不寻常案例

摘要在十九世纪,女性的角色受到了很大的限制。在地球科学领域,女性无法学习,因此更无法发表论文。这里展示了一位女作家的作品,由于她成长于一个知识分子家庭,与普鲁士/德国最著名的科学家有着密切的联系,如亚历山大·冯·洪堡、矿物学家克里斯蒂安·塞缪尔·韦斯、恩斯特·海克尔和许多其他人,了解科学进步和时代讨论。基于她在教师和科学家的不同寻常的教育以及她的智力,以及通过与一位知名的地球科学家结婚获得的知识,她撰写了包括地质和古生物学内容的流行少年文学。
