1813-1890.
Louise-Victorine Choquet, who became Mme. Paul Ackermann by her
marriage in 1844 and was left a widow
in 1846, lived a life of great retirement and seclusion. Her work,
the fruit of long solitude, bears the impress of a strong, reflective
mind. It is deeply linged with pessimism.
Works: _Contes et poésies_, 1863; _Poésies philosophiques_, 1874;
collected in one volume, _Poésies_, 1877.
For reference: Comte d'Haussonville, _Mme. Ackermann, d'après des
lettres et des papiers inédits_, 1891.
