Paula Dehmel

Paula Dehmel (born Paula Oppenheimer: 31 December 1862 – 9 July 1918) was a German writer. She wrote tales and poems for children. Between 1889 and 1900 she was married, under increasingly unconventional circumstances, to Richard Dehmel, who was among the country's best known and most popular poets during the first part of the twentieth century. She was also a sister of the polymath-sociologist Franz Oppenheimer (1864–1943).
