Verzweifelt suchte Lion Feuchtwanger einen Verlag für seinen Roman "Jud Süß". Erst durch die Übersetzung ins Englische wurde das Werk zum Bestseller. Im Mittelpunkt stehen philosophische Fragen von Handeln und Nichtstun nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg. Gerstenberg, Ralph www.deutschlandfunk.de, Kalenderblatt

Infolge des Klimawandels fallen immer öfter auch Kulturgüter Extremwetterlagen und ihren Folgen zum Opfer: Bei den verheerenden Bränden in Kalifornien sind Noten und Partituren des Komponisten Arnold Schönberg vernichtet worden. Auch die ehemaligen Wohnhäuser von Thomas Mann und Lion Feuchtwanger waren zeitweise stark bedroht. Wie es um den Schutz der Kulturgüter in Europa steht, darüber sprechen wir in unserem radio3-Klimagepräch mit Johanna Leissner, Vorsitzende der EU-Expertengruppe "Klimawandel und Kulturerbe“.

Berthold Brecht, Thomas Mann, Lion Feuchtwanger – das sind nur einige von vielen deutschsprachigen Schriftstellern, die sich in den 1930er Jahren im kleinen Sanary-sur-Mer an der Côte d’Azur vor den Nazis in Deutschland in Sicherheit brachten. Damals war es ein Fischerdorf. Heute ist es eine kleine Stadt, die sich ihren Charakter bewahrt hat. Und dazu gehört auch die Zeit, in der sie für die Deutschen ein Zufluchtsort war. Holger Beckmann war dort. Außerdem hat Stefanie Markert das Wohnhaus des großen französischen Romanciers Emile Zola besucht und ist einem alljährlichen Kult um Seeigel auf den Grund gegangen.

"Die Villa Aurora ist eine Zeitkapsel", sagt Claudia Gordon, und in unserem Gespräch mit ihr reisen wir tatsächlich kurz in die Vergangenheit. Denn die Villa Aurora ist nicht einfach nur ein hübsches Haus mit einem klangvollen Namen im Norden von Los Angeles: Es ist ein Ort der internationalen Begegnungen, stein gewordener Zeitzeuge eines Exils am Pazifik und heute auch ein Zuhause auf Zeit für Dutzende Künstler:innen, die dort an ihren Projekten arbeiten und sich dabei immer wieder mit der Geschichte des Hauses beschäftigen.

Bestseller-Autorin Tanja Kinkel und Lion Feuchtwanger haben nicht nur das Faible für historische Romane gemeinsam. Die Schriftstellerin ist heute Präsidentin der Feuchtwanger-Gesellschaft und erzählt, warum Feuchtwanger sie bis heute fasziniert. Sie ist Präsidentin der Internationalen Feuchtwanger-Gesellschaft und hat gemeinsam mit anderen erreicht, dass die Stadt München zum 140. Geburtstag des Schriftstellers im Juli 2024 einen Platz nach dem ihm benannte - über 90 Jahre nach seiner Flucht aus NS-Deutschland. Zum Gespräch mit Tanja Kinkel ein Ausschnitt aus Lion Feuchtwangers berühmtesten Roman, Erfolg, gelesen von Percy Adlon.

1976 promoviert der Regensburger Ludwig Max Fischer über Lion Feuchtwanger und lernt in Los Angeles dessen Witwe Marta kennen. Weil die Probleme mit den Füßen hat, stellt sie den 26-Jährigen als Chauffeur und Sekretär ein - inmitten der legendären Bibliothek, dem "Schatz von Pacific Palisades”.

Bibliotheken haben bekanntlich keine Füße. Aber - Lion Feuchtwanger, der Meister des historischen Romans, musste schnell sein, auf der Flucht vor den Nazis. So baute er in seinem Leben drei Bibliotheken auf, mit jeweils mehr als 10.000 Büchern: In Berlin, im französischen und amerikanischen Exil. Diese Bibliotheken waren weit mehr als nur Bücher in Regalen - sie waren das immobile alter ego Lion Feuchtwangers. Von Michael Zametzer

"Marseille 1940" – Die große Flucht der Literatur – Uwe Kullnick spricht mit Uwe Wittstock über sein Buch – Hörbahn on Stage  Lesung von Uwe Wittstock + anschließendes Gespräch mit Moderator Uwe Kullnick (Hördauer ca. 84 min) Gesprächsbeginn (28:28)  Juni 1940: Hitlers Wehrmacht hat Frankreich besiegt. Die Gestapo fahndet nach Heinrich Mann und Franz Werfel, nach Hannah Arendt, Lion Feuchtwanger und unzähligen anderen, die seit 1933 in Frankreich Asyl gefunden haben. Derweil kommt der Amerikaner Varian Fry nach Marseille, um so viele von ihnen wie möglich zu retten. Uwe Wittstock erzählt die aufwühlende Geschichte ihrer Flucht unter tödlichen Gefahren. Es ist das dramatischste Jahr der deutschen Literaturgeschichte. In Nizza lauscht Heinrich Mann bei Bombenalarm den Nachrichten von Radio London. Anna Seghers flieht mit ihren Kindern zu Fuß aus Paris. Lion Feuchtwanger sitzt in einem französischen Internierungslager gefangen, während die SS-Einheiten näherrücken. Sie alle geraten schließlich nach Marseille, um von dort einen Weg in die Freiheit zu suchen. Hier übergibt Walter Benjamin seinen letzten Essay an Hannah Arendt, bevor er zur Flucht über die Pyrenäen aufbricht. Hier kreuzen sich die Wege zahlreicher deutscher und österreichischer Schriftsteller, Intellektueller, Künstler. Und hier riskieren Varian Fry und seine Mitstreiter Leib und Leben, um die Verfolgten außer Landes zu schmuggeln. Szenisch dicht und feinfühlig erzählt Uwe Wittstock von unfassbarem Mut und größter Verzweiflung, von trotziger Hoffnung und Mitmenschlichkeit in düsterer Zeit. "Lieber Feuchtwanger, wir brauchen Mut heute. Wie viel Prozent Hoffnung geben Sie uns?" "Wie viel Hoffnung? Fünf Prozent." Über die Flucht von Heinrich Mann, Anna Seghers, Franz Werfel, Hannah Arendt, Lion Feuchtwanger, Walter Benjamin und vielen anderen Eine szenisch dichte Chronik von Mut, Verzweiflung und Mitmenschlichkeit Marseille 1940: Wo sich die Wege zahlreicher Schriftsteller und Intellektueller kreuzten Uwe Wittstock ist Schriftsteller und Journalist und war bis 2018 Redakteur des Focus. Zuvor hat er als Literaturredakteur für die FAZ, als Lektor bei S. Fischer und als stellvertretender Feuilletonchef und Kulturkorrespondent für die Welt gearbeitet. Er wurde mit dem Theodor-Wolff-Preis für Journalismus ausgezeichnet. Bei C.H.Beck ist sein Bestseller "Februar 33. Der Winter der Literatur" (6. Auflage 2021) erschienen, übersetzt in neun Sprachen. "Das Buch erzählt von der Gewalt der Herrschenden, dem Überlebenskampf der Verfolgten und dem Mut der Helfer und Helferinnen - eine Lektüre, die in Zeiten weltweiter Flüchtlingsströme von besonderer Relevanz ist. Uwe Wittstock entführt die Leser mit dichterisch-empathischer Sprachkraft in finstere Zeiten, die zugleich eine Warnung und ein Lehrstück für die Gegenwart sind. Sein sorgfältige Recherche und fesselnder Erzählstil machen dieses Buch zu einem Meisterwerk, das auch heute noch wichtige Fragen zur Demokratie und Menschlichkeit aufwirft. In einer Zeit der Abschottung und Konflikte ist "Marseille 1940" ein beeindruckendes und eindringliches Werk, dem der Erfolg gewünscht ist, den es verdient. Lassen sie mich noch hinzufügen: Wir führen dieses Gespräch unmittelbar nach der Europawahl mit ihrem, wie ich finde, katastrophalen Rechtsruck, ausgerechnet in den Ländern von denen entweder schon einmal Unglück und Verzweiflung, Kulturmord und Zerstörung der Menschlichkeit ausging bzw. erlitten werden musste. Vielleicht nehmen wir dieses Buch und das was es schildert zu Anlass um wach zu werden oder zu bleiben, Vorzubeugen, damit solche Schicksale wie Uwe Wittstock sie uns geschildert hat nicht wiederkommen. Vor der Tür stehen sie schon. ."   U. Kullnick, The Fortnightly 23  Wenn Ihnen dieser Beitrag gefallen hat, hören Sie doch auch einmal hier hinein oder vielleicht in diese Sendung Kommen Sie doch auch einfach mal zu unseren Live-Aufzeichnungen ins Pixel (Gasteig) oder nach Schwabing Redaktion und Realisation Uwe Kullnick

Gerstenberg, Ralph

Der jüdische Schriftsteller Lion Feuchtwanger gelangte mit Romanen wie „Jud Süß“ und „Der falsche Nero“ zu Weltruhm. Als die Nationalsozialisten an die Macht kamen, ging er nach Frankreich und in die USA. Deutschland hat er nie wiedergesehen. Gerstenberg, Ralph www.deutschlandfunk.de, Kalenderblatt

Heute vor 140 Jahren wurde der Philologe und Dramatiker Lion Feuchtwanger geboren.

“The twelve-year-old Margarete, Princess of Carinthia and Tyrol, was travelling from her seat near Meran to Innsbruck for her wedding with the ten-year old Prince Johann of Bohemia. [..]Still and serious she sat, in ceremonial pomp. Her bodice was so tight that she had had to be laced into it; her sleeves of heavy green satin, in the very extreme of fashion, fell to her feet ; she wore one of the new jeweled hair-nets which an express courier had had to bring from Flanders, where they had recently appeared. A heavy necklace sparkled on her bosom, and large rings on her fingers. So she sat, serious and perspiring, weighed down with magnificence, between the peevish, grumbling women. She looked older than her twelve years. Her thick-set body with its short limbs supported a massive misshapen head. The forehead, indeed, was clear and candid, the eyes quick and shrewd, penetrating and sagacious ; but below the small flat nose an ape-like mouth thrust forward its enormous jaws and pendulous underlip. Her copper colored hair was coarse, wiry and dull, her skin patchy and of a dull greyish pallor.”That is how the author Lion Feuchtwanger described Margarete, the countess of Tirol who is better known as Margarete Maultasch, the ugly duchess. This historic novel that became a huge bestseller in the 1920s describes how a bright and ambitious, but monstrously ugly woman is crushed by society's habit to judge the inside of a person by its appearance. I still have a copy of this book from the 1980s when I first read it, and on its cover is the same image I used for this episode's artwork. The picture was painted by Quentin Matsys in 1513 and according to the National Gallery's catalogue is called a Grotesque Old Woman. It is not a portrait of Margarete Maultasch who had died 150 years earlier. The identification of the sitter as Margarete Maultasch goes back the idea of a postcard seller in Meran in the 1920s. Matsys picture also made its way into the depiction of the Duchess in Alice in Wonderland. But it is all hokum. Chroniclers who knew Margarete personally, like Johann von Viktring either do not mention her appearance at all, or call her beautiful, if not extremely beautiful. So, as much as I love Lion Feuchtwanger's novel, which btw. is available in an English translation, its premise is simply false. The truth is much more interesting. Her actions to defend her inherited county of Tyrol were the changes that tilted the complex equilibrium between the Habsburgs, the Wittelsbachs and the House of Luxemburg out of kilter with unpredictable, violent results. So, let's find out why and how and what…The music for the show is Flute Sonata in E-flat major, H.545 by Carl Phillip Emmanuel Bach (or some claim it as BWV 1031 Johann Sebastian Bach) performed and arranged by Michel Rondeau under Common Creative Licence 3.0.As always:Homepage with maps, photos, transcripts and blog: www.historyofthegermans.comFacebook: @HOTGPod Twitter: @germanshistoryInstagram: history_of_the_germansReddit: u/historyofthegermansPatreon:

Von wegen Speer und Mammutjagd: Die schwedische Wissenschaftsjournalistin Karin Bojs hat ein Buch über Frauen in der Frühgeschichte geschrieben. Und es ging damals weiblicher zu, als wir heute denken. Mit Netzen gingen Frauen auf die Jagd, und vielleicht betete man sogar zu einer Göttin. Frauen waren auch damals oft die stärkere Hälfte, ebenso wie ihre vergessenen Erforscherinnen – wie das unterhaltsame Buch "Mütter Europas" zeigt. Ein dramatisches Kapitel der deutschen Geschichte präsentiert in seinem spannenden Buch "Marseille 1940" der Journalist Uwe Wittstock: Nachdem die deutsche Wehrmacht im Zweiten Weltkrieg Frankreich besiegt hatte, mussten zahlreiche Emigranten in Frankreich plötzlich fliehen, darunter etwa Heinrich Mann, Hannah Arendt, Lion Feuchtwanger. Sie versuchten, unter lebensbedrohlichen Umständen nach Amerika zu kommen. Der Autor erzählt von ergreifenden Schicksalen und von der Geheimmission des amerikanischen Journalisten Varian Fry, der für die Flüchtlinge in Marseille Pässe und Auswege organisierte. In der Rubrik "Der erste Satz" geht es diesmal um ein verrücktes, schreckliches Phänomen: die frei zugänglichen Schusswaffen in Amerika – und ihre alltäglichen Opfer. Der Schriftsteller Paul Auster hat über diesen Wahnsinn einen ergreifenden, die Hintergründe erklärenden Essay geschrieben, ergänzt um Fotos zahlreicher Tatorte. Der aktuelle Klassiker hat hingegen Verständnis für eines der ältesten Laster der Welt: Das Buch "Betrunkenes Betragen" hat schon 1968 gezeigt, dass es beim Alkohol in vielen Kulturen nur auf das Vorbild ankommt – wenn alles richtig läuft, dann klappt der wilde Rausch auch ohne schlimme Enthemmung.   Sie erreichen das Team von "Was liest du gerade?" unter buecher@zeit.de.

Der russische Überfall auf die Ukraine jährt sich in diesen Tagen zum zweiten Mal. Die deutsch-amerikanische Autorin und Illustratorin Nora Krug hat eine ukrainische Journalistin und einen russischen Künstler im ersten Kriegsjahr jede Woche nach ihren Erlebnissen und Gedanken befragt und daraus ein illustriertes Tagebuch gemacht: „Im Krieg“. Dagmar Fulle spricht mit ihr darüber, warum es zu kurz greift, die Betroffenen in Kategorien wie „Täter“ und „Opfer“ einzuteilen, über die Dinge, die die Ukrainerin und der Russe am meisten vermissen und über die Frage nach Gehen oder Bleiben. Außerdem: „Marseille 1940“ - die nahezu unbekannte Geschichte des jungen New Yorker Journalisten Varian Fry, der mit seinem Netzwerk rund 2000 Menschen im damals von Deutschland besetzten Frankreich das Leben rettete, darunter Hannah Arendt, Lion Feuchtwanger, Max Ernst, Marc Chagall oder Anna Seghers. Der Journalist und Autor Uwe Wittstock erzählt sie in seinem neuen Buch. Bild: © Nora Krug/Penguin Verlag

Das Theaterstück "Exil" nach dem gleichnamigen Roman von Lion Feuchtwanger wird am Berliner Ensemble gezeigt. Es kommt ohne Audiodeskription aus - diese audiodeskriptive Einführung ist dazu gedacht, sie sich vor dem Theaterbesuch anzuhören. Sprecherin: Irene Baumann

Feuchtwangers Romanfigur Sepp Trautwein kämpft mit dem Exil in Paris - der Schriftsteller selbst erlebte viele Arten von "Fremde", seine Heimat wurde die Sprache. Interview aus dem BR-Archiv und Lesung mit Axel Milberg.

I recently read a book review in The Atlantic entitled “What It Feels Like When Fascism Start.” The book was written in the late 1930's by Lion Feuchtwanger, one of Germany's best-known historical fiction writers. The book recounts a family's time during the Nazi's ascent just before World War II. The book, The Oppermanns, has just been translated anew, and, apparently, the new translation being released during our world's current geopolitical climate merits fresh consideration in The Atlantic and otherwise. Like the story's Oppermanns, many an exile and immigrant, like, say, Ukranian and Central American families nowadays, have a set of tough choices many of us can only imagine. Should they leave their homes, all they know and have, and flee to a new country with nothing but the shirts on their backs? Or should they stay and hope things get better before they get worse. The central choice could be cheekily surmised by the Clash's ‘Should I Stay or Should I Go?' but, for the sake of this episode we'll go ahead and quote the book review by saying “Identifying the point at which all is lost is not that easy.” Neither is identifying the right time to leave, if leaving is what one wants to do. This episode recounts the story of my mother's stepbrother, Tomas Honan - otherwise known by me and my sister as “Tío Junior” Tio Junior had come to the U.S. well before Castro's revolution took hold, but he decided that life in New York City did not suit him so he returned…just in time to watch many of his friends and relatives head the way he came from, leaving Cuba for the U.S. because Fidel's revolution did not seem all that it had been cracked up to be during its triumphant early days. Junior eventually managed to get himself out of Cuba in one of craziest ways possible: by way of Newfoundland and on the Cuban Communist Party's dime. Now let Rita go ahead and tell you more.

Oskar Maria Graf, Ricarda Huch, Hugo Ball, Lion Feuchtwanger, Heinrich Mann, Thomas Mann, Rainer Maria Rilke, Ernst Toller oder Karl Valentin – nur ein Bruchteil der Künstlerscharen, die zumindest Zeitweise in München-Schwabing gelebt haben und damit am Image des Stadtviertels als Kristallisationspunkt der Künstler-Bohème mitgewirkt haben. Das frühere Dorf Schwabing, urkundlich bereits 782 erwähnt, also älter als München selbst, wurde, längst zum Stadtteil Münchens geworden, nach der Neugründung der Kunstakademie im Jahre 1885, zum Künstlerviertel. Ob der Künstlerglanz auch 1922 noch strahlte, beurteilte das 8Uhr-Abendblatt am 20. September. Paula Leu war für uns vor Ort.

Wie entwickelte sich die Berliner Kultur nach der Machtergreifung der Nationalsozialisten? Welche Signalwirkung hatte die Bücherverbrennung weltweit? Wie reaktionär war das Kunstverständnis der Nazis? Hatte die sog. "Entartete Kunst" nach 1933 noch einen Wert? Welchen Schaden fügte der Nationalsozialismus der Kulturmetropole Berlin zu? Und welche Rolle spielte die verhasste "neue Frau" im NS-Staat? Diese und weitere Fragen beantwortet der Historiker Kai-Uwe Merz in seinem Buch "Monster Berlin".

At around 11am on Thursday 18 February 1943 two students in Munich were arrested for distributing anti-Nazi pamphlets. By Monday they had been interrogated, tried, and executed along with another member of the resistance circle. Further arrests followed. From 15-27 February 2021 the White Rose Project will be following the events as they happened in real time through daily posts on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. This year marks the 78th anniversary of the first White Rose trials. It's also a year when the dates and days of the week coincide. Imagine going about your normal routine on Monday, being arrested on Thursday, being interrogated over the weekend, and going to trial the following Monday morning. At the heart of our week is a live reading of the White Rose's resistance pamphlets, translated from German into English by student members of the White Rose Project. Dr Alex Lloyd (Fellow by Special Election in German, St Edmund Hall) will give a short introduction to the pamphlets. The readers are current and former students and academics, mirroring the membership of the original group: Sophie Caws, Eve Mason, Adam Rebick, Elba Slamecka, Sam Thompson, Amy Wilkinson, and Taylor Professor Emeritus of German Language and Literature, T.J. (Jim) Reed, FBA. The event will open and close with music by the award-winning vocal ensemble SANSARA, recorded on 22 February 2020. This event is supported by The Oxford Research Centre in the Humanities (TORCH) and the University of Oxford's Public Engagement with Research Seed Fund. It is part of the White Rose Project, a research and public engagement initiative bringing the story of the White Rose resistance circle to English-speaking audiences. Dr Alexandra Lloyd is Fellow by Special Election in German at St Edmund Hall, Oxford. She has published widely on post-war Germany, most recently in her book Childhood, Memory, and the Nation: Young Lives under Nazism in Contemporary German Culture (Legenda, 2020). She is currently a Knowledge Exchange Fellow at TORCH working with the White Rose Foundation in Munich, and is Project Lead on a Public Engagement with Research Seed Fund project, ‘Resistance: The Story of the White Rose', in collaboration with the award-winning vocal ensemble SANSARA. Eve Mason is a final-year student of English and German at the Queen's College, Oxford. Her passion for translation led her to the White Rose Project, where she was one of the original translators of the pamphlets for The White Rose: Reading, Writing, Resistance. She was awarded a prize for German in the Warwick Prize in Undergraduate Translation in 2019 and has gone on to self-publish A String of Pearls: A Collection of Five German Fairy Tales by Women Writers, for which she won the LIDL Year Abroad Project Prize 2019–20. Sophie Caws is a final year student of French and German at St Edmund Hall, Oxford. After taking German as a beginner's language, she now studies modern German literature with Dr Lloyd, with a particular interest in Freudian psychology and the literature of the former GDR. She spent 9 months living in Leipzig, Germany, where she worked as an English Language Assistant with the British Council and a teacher of English as a Second Language. She was also involved in English-language community theatre with English Theatre Leipzig, with the aim of promoting intercultural linguistic and artistic exchange within the Leipzig community and beyond. Sam Thompson is a fourth-year PhD student at King's College London, where he is completing a thesis on Classical Reception in German-language exile literature, 1933-45. Sam previously studied Classics and German at Magdalen College, Oxford, where he also received an MSt in German (with a dissertation on Austrian memory literature). His recent research interests include the work of Bertolt Brecht, Lion Feuchtwanger and Anna Seghers, and Interbellum literature more broadly.

Begin jaren negentig rekenen Felix en zijn vriend af met Duitsland om in Amsterdam een café voor knappe intellectuele homo's te beginnen.

During the Nazi regime, many German artists, scientists, and other intellectuals found refuge in Southern California. The authors Lion Feuchtwanger and Thomas Mann were two of the most prominent "exiles in paradise." Producer Kerstin Zilm takes us on a trip to their former homes in Los Angeles – the Villa Aurora and the Thomas House – both of which have been rededicated to transatlantic dialogue.

1976 wandert der Regensburger Ludwig Max Fischer in die USA aus. Dort will er über den Exil-Schriftsteller Lion Feuchtwanger promovieren. In Los Angeles lernt er dessen Witwe Marta kennen und lässt sich von ihr als Chauffeur engagieren. Hörstück zum 60. Todestag von Lion Feuchtwanger am 21. Dezember 2018.

This is Part 1 of our episode about the Salem Witch Trials. Episode 4, The Salem Witch Trials: This Actually What A Witch Hunt Looks Like. Welcome back to the CGS blog. This is another big episode for us. So big in fact that we had to make it a two part series. We originally decided on the idea for this show in mid-October because it was Halloween and we were feeling spooky. What’s spookier than archaic beliefs leading to mob mentalities and the death of innocent men and women based on ignorance and superstition? This, my friends, is a witch hunt. The word witch hunt has been thrown around a lot in the last two years. It’s not the first time in American history that this has happened. Many people saw similarities between the 1692 Massachusetts Bay colonies Witch Trials and the “Red Scare” of the late 1940 into the mid 1950s. The similarities were so great, in fact that legendary playwright, Arthur Miller took a cue from a German contemporary named Lion Feuchtwanger, who also drew correlations between the European Red Scare and the Salem Witch Trials (look up the play “The Devil In Boston”) and wrote his own allegory, titled “The Crucible”. For those of you who aren’t familiar, the Red Scare was period in American history when the fear of Communists infiltrating our government was at a fever pitch. This collective fear, led to notable Shitbag Joseph McCarthy claiming he had a list of 205 communist party member within the US Department of State. What he actually had was a blank piece of paper and a dream. More Recently, in the 1980s through the 1990s, we had another version of a witch hunt. This has been dubbed “The Satanic Panic”. Kicked off by the largely discredited book, “Michelle Remembers”, law enforcement agencies across the US took criminal activity and viewed it through a lens of “satanic ritual abuse”. This nonsense led to false witness statements coerced out of young children and false confessions forced out of people without the means to protect themselves from the onslaught of allegations, ruined reputations, and the weight of the federal, state, and local governments. You don’t have to take my word for it. Look up The West Memphis Three and the McMartin Trial for a glimpse into the lasting damage of religious fervor coupled with conmen and shear ignorance. This is not a political podcast. Naturally, we all have political leanings based on our own personal opinions. Speaking for myself, anyone who has heard me talk knows I am not an authority on any subject, especially with respect to the affairs of state. However, the term “witch hunt” inspires feelings of baseless accusations, ruined reputations, ruined lives, and even death. I think it’s important that we are careful when we use the phrase “witch hunt”. When we apply it to legitimate investigations that result in evidence based convictions, we dilute the meaning of the term and that is a disservice to the memory of everyone who has suffered as a result of these insidious, historical examples. Thank you for checking us out and I hope you enjoy the show.

Bertolt Brecht war ein bekannter deutscher Dramatiker. Geboren wurde er 1898 in Augsburg, also in Bayern. Schon als Kind begann er zu dichten. Mit 15 Jahren gründete er mit einem Freund eine Schülerzeitung. Sie schrieben selber Texte und ließen diese dann drucken. Brecht schrieb viel, und einiges davon wurde sogar schon in frühen Jahren in Zeitungen abgedruckt. Es waren „Augsburger Kriegsbriefe“, patriotische Texte zu Zeiten des Ersten Weltkriegs. Bertolt Brecht fand Freunde, die ebenso kreativ waren wie er. Gemeinsam arbeiteten sie an Liedern oder Theaterstücken. Dann studierte Bertolt Brecht in München Medizin und Philosophie – allerdings ging er kaum in die Vorlesungen, sondern hörte sich lieber an, was im Literaturseminar erzählt wurde. Da ging es um zeitgenössische Literatur, also um das, was gerade zu der Zeit und in den Jahren zuvor geschrieben worden war. Kurz war er im Militärdienst, arbeitete in einem Lazarett, also einer Krankenstation für Soldaten. Mit 21 Jahren wurde er Vater – seine 17-jährige Freundin war schwanger geworden. Brecht schrieb weiter und schickte seine Werke an bekannte Menschen seiner Zeit – zum Beispiel an Lion Feuchtwanger. Der mochte Brechts Werke und unterstützte ihn. Brecht reiste mehrmals nach Berlin und knüpfte neue Kontakte, und zwar zu Verlegern, Lektoren, Schauspielern und Autoren. 1922, da war Brecht gerade mal 24 Jahre alt, wurde sein erstes Stück auf einer Münchner Theaterbühne aufgeführt. Sein erstes Buch erschien in einem Berliner Verlag, er drehte mit Karl Valentin einen Film und 1923 kam sein zweites Kind zur Welt – von einer anderen Frau, mit der Brecht mittlerweile verheiratet war. 1924 war eine dritte Frau von Brecht schwanger – er ließ sich also scheiden und heiratete diese Frau, Helene Weigel, die 1930 noch eine Tochter bekam. 1928 schrieb Brecht seinen größten Erfolg, die „Dreigroschenoper“. Ihr kennt vielleicht auch „Mutter Courage“ oder „Der gute Mensch von Sezuan“. Brecht zog nach Berlin, wurde Kommunist, arbeitete als Regisseur und arbeitete mit Kurt Weil zusammen – sie verbanden Theater und Musik. Als die Nationalsozialisten stärker wurden und Brecht bedrohten, flüchtete er ins Ausland. Seine Bücher wurden von den Nationalsozialisten verbrannt und seine Werke verboten. Brecht war in Paris und arbeitete weiter. 1941 reiste er mit seiner Familie nach Kalifornien, er wollte dort als Drehbuchautor in Hollywood arbeiten. Weil man ihn hier nach Kriegsbeginn für einen Kommunisten hielt, reiste er in die Schweiz – nach Kriegsende wieder nach Berlin, diesmal nach der Teilung in den Ost-Teil der Stadt, also Teil der DDR. Er gründete 1949 das Berliner Ensemble – das ist heute eines der bekanntesten Theater in Berlin. 1956 starb Brecht. Über 16,5 Millionen Bücher von Bertolt Brecht hat allein der Suhrkamp-Verlag bislang verkauft – jedes Jahr werden nochmal 300.000 Bücher verkauft.

I samband med Förintelsens minnesdag (27/1) har Nils läst historien om den judiska familjen Oppermanns upplevelser i Berlin i början på 30-talet. Författaren Lion Feuchtwanger flydde själv från Tyskland i ett tidigt skede och skrev boken som landsflykting i Frankrike 1933. En tid när koncentrationslägrena byggs. När trakasserier mot oliktänkande, antisemitiska plakat och bojkotter hör till vardagen. Det är en samtidsroman som både är fascinerande, skrämmande och till viss del synsk.

Bertolt Brecht, Lion Feuchtwanger, Fritz Lang, Thomas Mann, Arnold Schoenberg - names which heavily contributed to Germany's 20th century intellectual history. What unites these cultural giants is their choice of exile during the rise of Adolph Hitler - Los Angeles.   The Soul of California is pleased to have UCLA Professor Dr. Ehrhard Bahr on the programme, author of Weimar on the Pacific - German Exile Culture and the Crisis of Modernism. In this 35+ minute interview, Dr. Bahr covers a range of topics including the circumstances in which these writers, artists and musicians came to the United States, their reception once they arrived and the ups an downs of being in exile while their own country Germany was being led into hell.   Dr. Bahr discusses the role of Los Angeles in German cultural history, from the salons which were an extension of life in Berlin to the strained relationships between some of these pivotal figures and their difficulties in representing Germany in their adopted land.

21.12.1958 starb Lion Feuchtwanger, dem als Autor der Durchbruch mit dem historischen Roman "Jud Süß" gelungen war, die Lebensgeschichte eines Hofjuden, die später von den Nazis für einen Propagandafilm missbraucht wurde. Im Ostblock wurde er als "progressiver" Schriftsteller verehrt, in seiner Wahlheimat USA hingegen schlug ihm während des Kalten Krieges großes Misstrauen entgegen...
