Abstract

Abstract Rosika Schwimmer (1877, Budapest–1948, New York) was one of the best-known women’s rights leaders and peace activists in the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy and worldwide. Unfortunately, she has been mostly forgotten or treated superficially in Hungarian and international scholarship until recently.
