Yes we know by the diary she kept about the books she read what she has read from 1000 to until 1021 in that time she had read almost 500 to books and of course the core of the books were was right the classical I mean classical literature and philosophy she read to such let's say difficult and demanding authors as need help and hire a kind she was really their intellectual in that respect what's interesting is also that she read some other kind of literature some women all says Hoover interesting for her because they demanded women's rights like Beatrice harridan she had a really wide scope of interest and she was really intellectually capacitated in that respect so her literature also shows that she stepped out of this noble lation or of an aristocratic girl or a young woman and that she really was in that way a self-made intellectual woman so to speak.
