Hrotsvit

**Hrotsvitha** (cca. 935 – cca. 1002), također poznata kao **Hroswitha**, **Hrotsvit**, **Hrosvit** i **Roswitha**, bila je njemačka svjetovna kanonikinja koja je živjela u opatiji Gandersheim, poznata kao dramatičarka i pjesnikinja. Pisala je na latinskom jeziku, a neki je historičari smatraju prvom osobom koja je pisala dramske tekstove na Zapadu od vremena kraja antike.

Rodila se u njemačkoj plemićkoj porodici, a ime joj znači "snažan glas." Obrazovala se pod paskom Rikkardis i Gerberg, kćeri njemačkog kralja Heinricha Ptičara. Gerbergin brat, budući car Oton I, postao je predmetom pjesme *Carmen de Gestis Oddonis Imperatoris*. Njeni tekstovi, koji često imaju religijske motive, ukazuju dobro poznavanje ne samo crkvenih otaca, nego i antičkih pisaca. Smatra se jednom od najznačajnijih ličnosti Otonijanske renesanse.
