Paul Fechter (* 14. September 1880 in Elbing; † 9 January 1958 in Berlin) was a German theater and art critic, editor and writer.

Life: Paul Fechter was the son of a long-established bourgeois and artisan family in Elbing/West Prussia. His younger brother was the naval engineer Admiral (Ing.) Hans Fechter.

Fechter graduated from high school in 1899. This was followed by a degree in architecture, mathematics and physics. In 1905 he received his doctorate from the Friedrich-Alexander University of Erlangen-Nuremberg. phil.

From 1906 to 1910 Fechter was a feuilleton editor at the Dresden Latest News, from 1911 to 1915 at the Vossische Zeitung. He became known to a larger audience through his book Der Expressionismus, published in 1914, a style for which he continued to advocate later.

During World War I he worked in the Ober Ost press department in Wilna. There he met Arnold Zweig, Herbert Eulenberg, Richard Dehmel, Hildebrand Gurlitt, Oskar Kühl, Karl Schmidt-Rottluff, Magnus Zeller and Hermann Struck (painters). Here also began the relationship with Cornelia Gurlitt, Hildebrand Gurlitt's older sister, which ended in Cornelia Gurlitt's suicide in May 1919.

After the First World War, Fechter was again a feuilleton editor at the Deutsche Allgemeine Zeitung ( Daz ). In the 1920s he also worked for radio and contributed to literary topics for Deutsche Welle (present-day literature series, author hour and book hour), for the Berlin radio hour and for the Silesian radio hour.[2] He left the Daz in the fall of 1933 in the early days of National Socialism to found the weekly newspaper Deutsche Zukunft with Fritz Klein and Peter Bamm, of which he remained co-editor until 1940. From 1933 to 1942 Fechter also published the Deutsche Rundschau together with Rudolf Pechel. From 1937 to 1939 he was editor of the Berliner Tageblatt. In 1939 he returned to the feuilleton of the Daz .

Between 1937 and 1941 he wrote for the monthly magazine Weiße Blatter by Karl Ludwig Freiherr von und zu Guttenberg. From 1938 Fechter was a member of the Wednesday Society, a "learned and sociable circle for scientific entertainment" in which the key protagonists of Hitler's assassination attempt on April 20, 1939 had also been members. July 1944 came together, namely Ludwig Beck and Johannes Popitz, whereby the Wednesday society as a whole did not coincide with the group of conspirators. Fechter describes the Wednesday Society in his 1948 book People and Times. Encounters from five decades.

Fechter's three literary stories from the years 1932, 1941 and 1952 are particularly well known. In his literary history of 1941, he expressed himself in a manner conforming to the system and stylized Hitler's Mein Kampf into a literary work of art: "The book, which summarizes all the diverse aspirations and tendencies of the great National Socialist movements, which marks the transition to the new form of speaking to the reader most sharply executed and thus creates the foundations of literature, [...] is Adolf Hitler's confessional book Mein Kampf."

His comedy The Magician of God was due to open on April 2nd. November 1941 in Königsberg, the premiere was postponed to November 11. January 1942 postponed and banned after the dress rehearsal. According to Fechter's own statements, this happened on the instructions of the Reich Ministry of Propaganda and at the urging of the SS and SD. The premiere took place on April 23. October 1948 in the Deutsches Schauspielhaus Hamburg.

In September 1943, Fechter, as he describes it in his book, was summoned by the Reich Association of the German Press before the Berlin District Court on the charge of "being an enemy of the National Socialist world view". According to Fechter, the cause was his work on a book about Barlach in 1935, the comedy Der Zauberer Gottes, and the overall impression that had led to him being on the "party black list". However, Fechter was able to escape the process with the help of Minister Johannes Popitz and lawyer Carl Langbehn due to their connections to SS-Obergruppenfuhrer Müller.

After the Second World War, Fechter wrote, among other things, for the feature section of the weekly newspaper Die Zeit. In the German Democratic Republic, Fechter's history of German literature (Knaur, Berlin 1941) was placed on the list of discarded literature. In recent years he has been working on a biography of his friends from West Prussia, the Siewert sisters, the writer Elisabeth Siewert and the painter Clara Siewert. His unfinished fragment of the Siewert biography was published by Carl Lange in the 1964 West Prussia Yearbook after his death.

Fechter's estate is located in the German Literature Archive in Marbach am Neckar.

The Philo publishing house was a German publishing house that was founded in 1919 by the Central Association of German Citizens of Jewish Faith (CV) and was forcibly closed in Nazi Germany in 1938. The publisher's name was reactivated in 1996 without a substantive or legal successor being associated with it.

History: The Jewish interest group CV, founded in 1893, aimed for the complete emancipation of Jews without assimilation in German society. He tried to promote an understanding of Judaism in German society and opposed the anti-Semitism that was increasing not only in the German Reich during the founding period. The CV also differentiated itself in its publications from the Zionist movement, which published its writings in the Jüdischer Verlag founded in 1902. The CV published a growing number of typefaces that were placed with third-party publishers or commissioned from printers.

The own publishing house was founded after the general meeting of the CV in May 1919. The decisive factors were, on the one hand, economic reasons in the economic crisis after the First World War, in order to reduce the production and distribution costs for the company's own brochures, and on the other hand, the flood of anti-Semitic brochures and leaflets, which caused an unsettled population and its press in the initial political crisis of the Weimar Republic were offered as a panacea.

The publishing house and the bookshop, which was set up at the same time, initially had their business premises at the headquarters of the CV at Lindenstraße 13 in Berlin-Kreuzberg. In 1930 the publishing house and bookshop moved into larger rooms at Emser Straße 42 and thus became somewhat more independent in their work due to the spatial distance. In June 1933, the bookshop was relocated to Pariser Strasse 44 in Wilmersdorf for security reasons due to National Socialist attacks.

The syndic of the CV, Ludwig Holländer, became head of the publishing house. The publishing house was named after the Jewish politician Gabriel Riesser (1806-1863) Gabriel Riesser Verlag. By the end of 1919, one publication each by Holländer, Benno Jacob, Alfred Wiener and Hans Goslar, as well as one reported anonymously. A legal dispute with the nephew of the namesake, Jacob Riesser, who had renounced Judaism, then led to the renaming to Philo Verlag, and the namesake was now Philo von Alexandria.

In the Philo-Verlag the club magazine Im deutscher Reich (IdR) (1895-1922) was now also published, replaced by the weekly CV-Zeitung (1922-1938), whose editor-in-chief Alfred Hirschberg (1901-1971) became. Lucia Jacoby (1889-1944) had already worked as a secretary at CV and then headed the magazine IdR as editorial secretary. In 1922 she replaced Holländer in the publishing management of Philo-Verlag. The lawyer Alfred Wiener, who also worked as an editor for the weekly newspaper, became the deputy director of the publishing house.

From 1925 the publishing house published the bimonthly Der Morgen (1925-1938), which was initially supervised by Julius Goldstein (1873-1929), and from 1929 also a "New Series" of the journal for the history of Jews in Germany (1929- 1937), which was scientifically supervised by Ismar Elbogen, Aron Freimann and Max Freudenthal.

In the 20 years of the publishing house's existence, around 200 brochures and books by Jewish and non-Jewish authors were published, around 160 of them before 1933. The loose-leaf collection Anti-Anti, first printed in 1924, was outstanding with seven editions and 40,000 printed copies. Facts about the Jewish question for discussion speakers.

Period of National Socialism: After the transfer of power to the National Socialists in 1933, the political living conditions of the Jews in Germany changed and with them the conditions for the work of associations and publishing houses.

From then on, the publishing house was forbidden to publish books by non-Jewish authors and to sell its writings to non-Jews. The publishers of Jewish publishing houses tried to avoid the conflict with the party rule of the NSDAP and the compliant and equally anti-Semitic state bureaucracy. Instead of enlightening writings about the anti-Semitic tendencies in society, books were published to provide orientation on the situation of the Jews, books to instruct and books for entertainment. In the children's literature program, too, the titles that were problematic due to the foreseeable conflict with Nazi censorship were removed from the program. The reading clientele could only be helped with cautious moral support; emigration now also became part of reality for the Jews organized in the CV. The writings of the Kleine Philo-Bücherei, the Philo-Lexikon first published in 1935. Handbook of Jewish Knowledge, the Philo-Zitaten-Lexikon (1936) were such titles with a practical use. In 1938 the Philo-Atlas was published by the publishing house of the Jewish Cultural Association. Handbook for Jewish Emigration by Ernst G. Löwenthal, it was the last new publication of a Jewish book until 1945.

After the Reich pogrom night the publishing house was closed on 10. Closed by the German government in November 1938. The Jewish Cultural Association had to take over the remaining stocks of all closed Jewish publishing houses. The activities of the Kulturbund were forcibly terminated in 1941 and the German Jews who had not been expelled were deported to concentration camps.

Philo-Verlag from 1996: In the Federal Republic of Germany, the Philo-Lexikon was reprinted in 1982 by the newly founded Jewish publishing house. A PHILO publishing house was founded in 1996; apart from the name, little connects the publisher with its predecessor. In 1999 the Philo Atlas was reprinted there with an additional, extensive scientific commentary by Susanne Urban-Fahr.

 

Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn (* 15. July 1606 in Leiden; † 4 October 1669 in Amsterdam), known by his first name Rembrandt, is considered one of the most important and well-known Dutch artists of the Baroque period. His work fell into the epoch of the Golden Age, when the Netherlands experienced a political, economic and artistic heyday. Rembrandt studied with Pieter Lastman, opened his first studio in Leiden in 1625 and soon attracted attention. In 1631 he moved to Amsterdam, where he became a celebrated artist. Despite this, he suffered at times from considerable financial problems, went bankrupt in 1656 and died in poverty.

Rembrandt worked as a painter, etcher and draftsman, ran a workshop and trained artists. His oeuvre includes portraits, landscapes as well as biblical and mythological subjects. His most famous works include The Blinding Samson, The Night Watch, The Anatomy of Dr. Tulp and The Hundred Guilder Leaf. In his depictions of history, Rembrandt took up numerous motifs that had not previously been artistically processed, or he looked for new ways of depicting traditional motifs. Many of these works are characterized by strong light-dark contrasts, which is why he is considered a master of chiaroscuro.

Rembrandt was already well received during his lifetime through engravings and copies of his pictures. After his death, his coloristic style of painting was rated negatively in art criticism and art literature of classicism, while his works were very popular with collectors and fetched high prices. in the 18th In the 19th century Rembrandt found followers among German and English artists. During this time his life was mystified and embellished with legends. Only in the middle of the 19 At the end of the 19th century, his real biography was extracted from this Rembrandt picture through source research. The Rembrandt Research Project has been researching Rembrandt's works and examining their authenticity since the 1970s. Of the more than 700 pictures once attributed to Rembrandt, today only about 350 are actually works by his hand.

February 1677 in The Hague) was a Dutch Danish philosopher. He was the son of Sephardic immigrants from Portugal and his first language was Portuguese.
