DEROCHE Élise 22. 8. 1882 - 18. 7. 1919
Francoska pilotka je prva ženska s dovoljenjem za letenje. Kot mlado dekle je bila igralka. Car Nikolaj II ji je podelil medaljo reda Saint Anne in naslov baronica. Bila je že izkušena balonarka, ko ji je oktobra 1909, letalec Charles Voisin predlagal da jo naučiti leteti z letali. 8. marca 1910 je tako de Laroche kot prva ženska na svetu prejela pilotsko dovoljenje s številko 36. Med prvo svetovno vojno, ko so smatrali da je letenje za ženske prenevarno je razvažala vojaške oficirje na fronto in iz nje. Junija 1919 je dosegla dva ženska rekorda, višinskega z 4800 metri in dolžinskega s 323 kilometri. 18. julija 1919 je bila na letališču v Le Crotoy ker je želela postati prva ženska poklicna testna pilotka. Poletela je na poskusnem letalu (ne ve se ali ga je pilotirala ali je bila samo potnica), ki je pri pristanku strmoglavilo. Oba potnika letalu sta se ubila.

She was a French aviatrix and the first woman in the world to receive an airplane pilot's licence. As a young woman she became an actress. The Tsar Nicolas II awarded her the medal of the order of Saint Anne and the title of Baroness. She was already an experienced balloonist when, in October 1909, aviator Charles Voisin suggested she could learn to fly a fixed-wing aircraft. On 8 March 1910, de Laroche became the first woman in the world to receive a pilot licence when the Aero-Club of France issued her license #36 of the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale (International Aeronautics Federation or F.A.I.). During World War I, as flying was considered too dangerous for women, she served as a military driver, chauffeuring officers from the rear zones to the front under fire. In June 1919 de Laroche set two women's altitude records, one at 15,700 feet (4,800 m); and also the women's distance record, at 201 miles (323 km). On 18 July 1919 de Laroche, who was a talented engineer, went to the airfield at Le Crotoy as part of her plan to become the first professional woman test pilot. She co-piloted an experimental aircraft (whether she flew this plane or was simply a passenger at the time is not known) but on its landing approach the aeroplane went into a dive and crashed killing both the pilot and de Laroche.

DROSTE-HULSHOFF Annette von 12. 1. 1797 - 24. 5. 1848
Ena največjih nemških pesnic 19. stoletja je živela navzven varno in idilično plemiško življenje, ki pa je skrivalo eksistencialne verske dvome in notranje strasti do svojega 17 let mlajšega varovanca Levina Schuckinga. Borbe in odpovedi so bile navdih za njene odlične pesmi objavljene v letih 1838, 1844, 1851 in 1860. V njih lirična moč, metrični svoboda, realizem in simbolika nakazujejo novejše trende. Die Judenbuche iz leta 1842, ki je njeno edino kompletno prozno delo, predstavlja mejnik v zgodovini novele, saj združuje skrivnost, simboliko, realizem, regionalizem in večkraten vidik pripovedi.

Annette von Droste-Hulshoff was one of the great German poets of her century. She lived an outwardly secure and idyllic, aristocratic life that concealed existential religious doubts and inner passion, especially for her protege, Levin Schucking, her first biographer (1862) and 17 years her junior. Struggling and renunciation inspired great poems (published in 1838, 1844, 1851, 1860) in which lyrical strength, metrical freedom, realism, bold imagery, and symbolism anticipate later trends. Die Judenbuche (1842; The Jews' Beech Tree), her only completed prose work, is a landmark in the history of the novella, combining mystery, symbolism, realism, regionalism, and multiple narrative perspectives.

DUSE Eleonora 3. 10. 1858 - 21. 4. 1924
Italijanska igralka je na odrske deske stopila s štirimi leti, s 14 je že nastopila kot Julija v tragediji Romeo in Julija. Zaslovela je leta 1878 z vlogo Terese Raquin v Neaplju. Nastopala je po celi Evropi, kasneje pa tudi v ZDA. Zavzemala se je za uveljavitev dramskih del D`Annunzia s katerim je nekaj let živela. V nasprotju z večkrat izumetničeno in pretirano čustvenostjo Sarah Bernhardt je bila njena igra naravna pa vendar polna energije in zanosa. Leta 1909 je prenehala nastopati, vendar se je 1921 vrnila na oder. Zadnjič je nastopila malo pred smrtjo na gostovanju v Pittsburgu (ZDA).

The Italian tragedienne Eleonora Duse was known internationally as one of the greatest actresses of her time. Born into a theatrical family, Duse had her first popular success in Emile Augier's The House of Fourchambault (1878). In 1878 she joined a touring company and became a star. Duse's outstanding roles included performances in plays by Victorien Sardou, Henrik Ibsen, and Alexandre Dumas fils. In 1893 she scored notable successes in Carlo Goldoni's La Locandiera and as Magda in Hermann Sudermann's Heimatt. Her role as Magda, performed in London in 1895 at the same time as Sarah Bernhardt's performance, prompted comparisons of the two actresses. She supported and acted in the dramas La Gioconda (1898) and Francesca da Rimini (1902) of Gabriele D'Annunzio, with whom she had a long and tempestuous love affair, recounted in his novel The Flame of Life (1900). She retired in 1909, returned to the stage in 1921, and died while on a tour of the United States.
