| Summary | "Memoirs of Bertha von Suttner: The Records of an Eventful Life (Vol. 2 of 2)" is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This memoir reflects on the life and experiences of Bertha von Suttner, an influential peace activist and the first woman to receive the Nobel Peace Prize. The narrative likely chronicles her involvement in peace movements and important international congresses, detailing her thoughts on war, peace, and societal progress. The opening of the memoir highlights von Suttner's reflections on her life's endeavors amidst a growing peace movement in Europe. She shares her observations of the formation of peace societies in Germany and recounts her disappointment at not attending the Chicago World’s Fair and Peace Congress, entrusting her representation to a friend. As she pens these memories, she underscores the emotional complexities of childlessness, a theme she addresses with contentment derived from literary achievements and her intimate relationship with her husband. The narrative emphasizes the progress of the peace idea, foreshadowing her engagements with notable figures, passions for social progress, and a commitment to advocating for international arbitration.
