Magdalena Heymair

[edit]
  • ... that Lutheran children's educator Magdalena Heymair was the first woman to have her works listed as heretical in the Index Librorum Prohibitorum (1569)? Source: "The first woman whose writings were prohibited was Magdalena Heymairin..."; see Encyclopedia for discussion of her as a Lutheran children's educator.
    • ALT1:... that the publication of educational books for children by Magdalena Heymair was so unprecedented that an admiring colleague wrote "This must be the end of time, when also women are publishing books”? Source: Quote, then "Thus exclaims an admiring Josua Opitz in his preface to Magdalena Heymair's second work... Heymair's entry into this hitherto male domain..." also indicates that she wrote adaptations of the Bible for use in Lutheran schools.

  • - Length, Date, Cite, QPQ, and Earwigs check. I personally prefer the origional hook as I feel ALT1 does not have enough context to understand her history. Mifter (talk) 03:11, 10 March 2017 (UTC)
