Biography
Fabianová was born 11 February 1872[1] in Železné Brod into the family of Václav Fabián, the chief engineer of the Austrian Northwestern Railway, and his wife Juliena, née Haklová. She had two siblings. After graduating from a bourgeois school, she began studying in Prague at the newly opened (1890) first private girls' grammar school in Central Europe, Minerva.[2]
After graduating from grammar school in 1895, she began to study mathematics at the Faculty of Philosophy of Charles-Ferdinand University in Prague under Professor František Josef Studnička.[2] Until 1900, girls attended lectures for residential studies (without the status of regular students); in 1900, a new law enabled girls to take exams for the entire period of their studies. Fabianová graduated in November 1901 with a thesis in analytical mathematics becoming the first, or one of the first women, to earn a PhD in mathematics in the country.[2][3][4] In 1902, Anna Honzáková, a classmate of Fabianová from Minerva, became the first graduate of the Faculty of Medicine of Charles-Ferdinand University.[2]
After that, Fabianová started teaching mathematics, physics and German at the Minerva gymnasium.[2] At that time, the teaching profession was associated with a promise of celibacy, so Fabianová never married. She lived with her sister Juliana Fabiánová.
In 1923, she separated from Minerva and became the director of the Second Czech Girls' Real Municipal Gymnasium (from 1930 until its abolition in 1949 the Real Gymnásium of Charlotte Masaryková). She held the position until she retired in 1929.
In retirement, she began to participate in Czech social activities: she was a member of the Union of Czechoslovak Mathematicians and Physicists, the Association of Academically Educated Women and the Minerva Association.[2]
Marie Fabianová died on 7 April 1943 after a long illness in the General Faculty Hospital in Prague at the age of 70.
