Marie Luise Kaschnitz (born Marie Luise von Holzing-Berslett; 31 January 1901 – October 10, 1974) was a German short story writer, novelist, essayist, and poet.
She is regarded as one of Germany's top postwar poets.
In 1925, she married archaeologist Guido Freiherr Von Kaschnitz-Weinberg (the author of The Mediterranean Foundations of Ancient Art) and traveled with him on archaeological expeditions. She has been lauded for her short stories, many of which were influenced by events in her life, and her personal reminiscences.
These stories were collected in books such as Orte and Engelsbrücke.
She loved traveling and her books make use of many settings.
They are often reflective in character rather than eventful, and they are often concerned with specific stages in a woman's life or a marriage.
Lange Schatten ("Long Shadows") is her main collection.
"Das dicke Kind" by 1961, her all favorite tale. Menschen und Dinge 1945, her postwar essay collection, established her name in Germany.
Her poems were about the war and the early postwar period, often expressing a yearning for a quiet past but also hope for the future.
Mein Stimme in the volume Dein Schweigen - meine Stimme she dealt with her husband's death.
Pablo Neruda influenced her after 1960. She briefly taught poetics at the University of Frankfurt.
She was a member of PEN.
She has received numerous awards, including the Georg Büchner Award in 1955 and the Roswitha Prize in 1973.
She had been nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1967.
She died in Rome, aged 73.
In her honour, the Marie Luise Kaschnitz Prize was named.
