生平
安内特·冯·德罗斯特-徽尔斯霍夫出生在明斯特附近的徽尔斯霍夫庄园，是一个信奉天主教的贵族家庭，家教严谨，性格内向。由于早产的原因童年时候体弱多病，1812年至1819年由德国作家安东·马蒂亚斯·施普里克曼（Anton Matthias Sprickmann，1749年9月7日—1833年11月22日）教授担任她的家庭教师。
安内特·冯·德罗斯特-徽尔斯霍夫从小就开始写作，但一直没有发表作品，直到她40岁。即便她的健康状况每况愈下，都从来没有考虑过想要通过写作来维持生计，她始终非常严肃地对待文学创作。她早年的写作主要受到她的堂兄、科隆大主教克莱门斯·奥古斯特·冯·德罗斯特-菲舍林（Clemens August von Droste-Vischering，1773年1月21日—1845年10月19日）的影响，他极端地支持教皇权力。安内特·冯·德罗斯特-徽尔斯霍夫受到了很好的文学教育，远远超过了当时妇女的一般水平。
Baroness Anna Elisabeth Franziska Adolphine Wilhelmine Louise Maria von Droste zu Hülshoff, known as Annette von Droste-Hülshoff (German: [aˈnɛtə fɔn ˈdʁɔstəˈhʏlshɔf] (About this soundlisten); 10 or 12 January 1797 – 24 May 1848), was a 19th-century German writer and composer. She was one of the most important German poets and author of the novella Die Judenbuche.
In an article for the 1913 Catholic Encyclopedia, Francis Joste wrote, "The fame of the poetess rests chiefly on her lyric poems, her pastorales, and her ballads. In the poetic representation of nature, few can equal her. The poetical works of Annette von Droste-Hülshoff are imperishable. What makes them so is their originality, the proof that they are the works of a genius. It is this too that gained for their author the well-earned title of "Germany's greatest poetess.'"
