Still, a remarkable survival of a crucial piece of transgender literary history. Man into Woman is the autobiography of Lili Ilse Elvenes, better known as Lili Elbe (1882 - 1931), the Danish painter who, in 1930, became one of the first people to receive gender affirming surgery. The work, which was written by Elbe and edited by her friend Ernst Jacobson under the pseudonym Niels Hoyer, records Elbe's personal reflections on her gender identity and the story of her medical transition at Magnus Hirschfeld's Institute for Sexual Science, a groundbreaking transition medicine clinic. Man into Woman is "the first popular full-length (auto)biographical narrative of a subject who undergoes genital transformation surgery" and one of the earliest published personal accounts of transgender life (Bloomsbury). Elbe began presenting as a woman in the 1920s, both as a model for her wife, the painter Gerda Gottlieb (1885 - 1940), and among her social circle. In 1930, Elbe became a patient of the Institute for Sexual Science, and went through a series of gender affirming surgeries over the course of the next two years. During the course of her transition, Elbe was able to legally change her name and gender and live as a woman: "That I, Lili, am vital and have a right to life, I have proved it," she wrote in her autobiography. She lived in Dresden, where she met the French art dealer Claude Lejeune, and dreamed of having children. Unfortunately, following complications from her fourth surgery, Elbe passed away in September 1931. She has since been immortalized by this autobiography, and by the extraordinary portraits painted by Gottlieb, which capture an image of Elbe as the modern woman, a symbol of independence and self-determination. Elbe's transition was also depicted in the widely acclaimed film The Danish Girl (2015), which was adapted from the 2000 novel of the same name. Man into Woman is also a crucial record of Hirschfeld's work and the blossoming trans community that existed around his clinic. In the words of Susan Stryker, "Hirschfeld was the linchpin, and his institute the hub, of the international network of transgender people and progressive medical experts who set the stage for the post-World War II transgender movement" (Transgender History, p. 39). Hirschfeld coined the term "transvestite" (a predecessor of later terms like "transsexual" and, eventually, "transgender"); published "the first book-length treatment of transgender phenomena" in 1910; and, through his Institute for Sexual Science, provided healthcare, legal resources, social support, and even employment opportunities to a blossoming community of trans people in Europe (ibid). Tragically, the Institute for Sexual Science was dismantled by the Nazis in 1933 in a series of raids, book burnings, and arrests and attacks of clinic staff; Hirschfeld was out of the country at the time and escaped arrest, but many of his records were destroyed. Elbe's biography, then, is a crucial record of trans life and community - an aspect of history that has been (and continues to be) intentionally erased by far-right governments around the world. Note: Though it is difficult to trace the early history of trans biography and memoir, the first published personal account of medical gender transition may have been Memoirs of a Man's Maiden Years (1907), a semi-autobiographical account by Karl M. Baer, an early patient of Hirschfeld. Baer's work was followed by Jennie June's publications Autobiography of an Androgyne (1918) and The Female Impersonators (1922), which record the writer's personal experiences of gender and involvement with the Cercle Hermaphroditos, one of the earliest examples of trans community organizing. Therefore, Man into Woman might be the fourth published trans memoir. Importantly, all of these publications long predate more popular midcentury memoirs published in the wake of Christine Jorgensen's highly publicized transition in 1951, including her own Personal Autobiography (1967). Trans memoirs became much more common throughout the 1970s and beyond; any work predating World War II is notably early and is likely quite scarce. Stryker, Susan. Transgender History (2008).

First Edition. [LGBTQ][Transgender] Elbe, Lili. Man into Woman: An Authentic Record of a Change of Sex, 1933, a central text of transgender history and early twentieth century sexology, and one of the first published autobiographical accounts of gender transition. Based on the life and writings of Lili Elbe, born Einar Wegener, a Danish painter who underwent a series of pioneering gender affirming surgeries in Germany. The work documents the medical, psychological, and social aspects of transition in interwar Europe. Issued shortly after Elbe's death in 1931, the narrative brought unprecedented public attention to questions of gender identity, embodiment, and surgical intervention at a moment when the study of sexology was actively redefining concepts of sex, intersexuality, and gender identity. Elbe, Lili. Man into Woman: An Authentic Record of a Change of Sex. Edited by Niels Hoyer [pseudonym of Ernst Harthern]. Translated by H. J. Stenning. Introduction by Norman Haire. New York: E. P. Dutton & Co., Inc., 1933. First American edition. The text was compiled by journalist Ernst Harthern under the pseudonym Niels Hoyer from Elbe's diaries, letters, and oral testimony, tracing her emergence from Einar to Lili and recounting multiple surgical procedures performed in Dresden under the direction of physician Kurt Warnekros. The edition includes an extensive introduction by British sexologist Norman Haire, situating Elbe's case within contemporary medical discourse on sexual pathology and intersexuality. Eighteen plates reproduce photographs of Elbe before and after surgery as well as artwork by Elbe and her wife, the illustrator Gerda Wegener, whose portraits contributed to Lili's public image. One volume; illustrated with 18 plates; original light blue cloth with gilt spine titles; no dust jacket; octavo. Published at a time when public discussion of gender transition remained medically framed and socially contentious, Man into Woman became an early touchstone for subsequent generations seeking narrative precedent for gender affirmation. Elbe's story reached worldwide recognition in 2000 with David Ebershoff's novel "The Danish Girl", and again in 2015 when the book was adapted into an Academy Award winning film of the same name. The 1933 American edition remains the foundational vehicle through which her story entered Anglophone discourse. Spine gilt dulled; cloth sunned with noticeable fading to spine; minor wear to spine ends; corners lightly bumped; binding sound; pages clean with expected age toning; overall very good. A landmark publication in transgender history and early modern gender affirmation narrative.…
