The Virginal Mother in German Culture: From Sophie von La Roche and Goethe to Metropolis

Presents an analysis of the contradictory obsession with female virginity and idealization of maternal nature in Germany from the late eighteenth to the early twentieth centuries. Lauren Nossett explores how the ideal of woman as both a sexless and maternal being led to the creation of a unique figure in German literature: the virginal mother.
