Women in the life and work of Albert Schweitzer:
“Without her, none of my plans would have been successful.” Schweitzer spoke about his wife Hélène Bresslau, but there are many women who have inspired him since his youth and who collaborated on his work! Discover Schweitzer’s great femininity through these destinies of exceptional women: her piano teacher Marie Jaëll, her collaborators at Lambaréné, the Queen of Belgium or Antonia Brico, the first woman recognized as a conductor, Rachel Carson, the founder of the environmental movement in the Western world, and many others, world famous or unfortunately forgotten.
