About Constanța Hodoș

Lived 1861 – 1934 (aged 72). Constanța Hodoș was a Romanian children's writer, writer, editor and novelist.

Constanța Hodoș (October 12, 1860–April 20, 1934) was an Austrian Empire-born Romanian novelist, playwright and opinion journalist.

Biography Born in Zimbru, Arad County, her parents were Constantin Tălaș, a notary, deputy prefect and supporter of the 1848 revolutionaries in the Țara Zarandului area; and his wife Amalia. Her childhood was spent at Aciua, Hălmagiu and Baia de Criș; a graduate of the Romanian girls' school in Hălmagiu, she also took private lessons. Nevertheless, Hodoș, a precocious and voracious reader of literature, was largely self-taught. She married writer Alexandru I. Hodoș, but the union proved a failure, prompting her to move to Bucharest, capital of the Romanian Old Kingdom, in 1886. There, she undertook sustained publishing activity, penning articles on patriotic, social and cultural themes. She edited Revista noastră from 1905 to 1916, and also contributed to Adevărul literar și artistic, Dacia Traiană, Luceafărul, Lumea ilustrată, Minerva, Revista scriitoarei, Sămănătorul, Sibiul literar, Telegraful român, Transilvania, Universul, Vieața and Viața literară.
