Autorenporträt
Aloisia Kirschner was an Austrian novelist born in Prague who became well-known under the alias Ossip Schubin, which she based on Ivan Turgenev's work Helena. She was raised on her parents' estate in Lochkov and later spent several winters in Brussels, Paris, and Rome, where she surely drew inspiration for her witty depictions of creative Bohemianism and worldwide fashionable society, two of her favorite themes. An unusually astute observer, she has a great knack for striking characterization, often seasoned with sarcasm, which is notably evident in her delineations of Austria-Hungary's military and artistic circles. She died in 1934 in Kosatky Castle, Bohemia. Her works are of varying quality, with the earliest being the best.
