Sophie von Schardt (born Sophie von Bernstorff: 23 November 1755 - 30 July 1819) was a well connected member of the Weimar court circle during the "classic" period. Mme de Staƫl thought her among the most sympathetic women in Weimar while Goethe himself, who enjoyed her company, referred to her as the "little Schardt" (als den "kleinen Schardt"). She also wrote poems herself, which were mostly short lyric pieces, and produced translations from English and Italian (most of which remain unpublished).
