Klara Stroebe

Klara Agnes Stroebe (7 February 1887 – 16 October 1932) was a German scholar and folklorist associated with collections of fairy tales and traditional stories. Library and author records identify her as a German anthologist and translator, and list her life dates as 1887 to 1932.

She is especially remembered for gathering and translating Scandinavian folklore. Her work includes collections such as Nordische Volksmärchen as well as English-language volumes like The Swedish Fairy Book and The Norwegian Fairy Book, which helped introduce Nordic tales to a wider audience.

Some catalog and library sources also describe her as a Germanist, which fits the scholarly side of her career. A readily verifiable portrait was not found on the pages reviewed, so no profile image is included here.
