Biographical/Historical Heinrich Mann (1871-1950), one of the foremost German writers of the twentieth century, lived almost penniless and seemingly forgotten in Los Angeles for nearly a decade before his death in 1950. Heinrich Mann was the elder brother of Nobel Prize winning novelist Thomas Mann. Despite his name and literary stature, Heinrich Mann remained virtually unknown in this country. By contrast, in pre-Hitler Germany, Heinrich had been both respected by fellow writers and popular with readers, perhaps even more so than his brother. Heinrich Mann began actively pursuing a career in writing in the 1890s after failing as a publisher's apprentice. He first began as a critic and editor, then turned his talents to short stories and novels. The novel Im Schlaraffenland (In the Land of Cockaigne), published in 1901, proved his literary skill. Although he had achieved a degree of literary success in the period before World War I, his works were not widely read. Not until Der Untertan (The Patrioteer) appeared in 1918 did he experience popular success. In the United States, Mann never gained wide recognition as a writer; and he is still best known for the 1930 film "The Blue Angel," which was adapted from his novel Professor Unrat (Small Town Tyrant). As the Nazis assumed power in February 1933, Mann was one of the first intellectuals to flee Germany. His close ties to France made his exile in Southern France relatively easy and allowed him to continue writing for an appreciative audience. Mann remained in France until the country fell to German occupation, whereupon he and his wife, Nelly, fled Europe. For Mann, then nearly seventy years old, the escape across the Pyrenees on foot was extremely arduous. Like most German exiles during World War II, Mann faced great financial difficulties in the United States. Away from European soil, he lost much of his sympathetic French audience, not to mention his larger readership in Germany. Luckily, his first year in Los Angeles was free of hardship because of a one-year contract with Warner Brothers Pictures previously arranged for Mann by fellow exiles. However, after the completion of this contract, and until his death in 1950, Mann was without a regular salary and was dependent on assistance from his family and friends. Heinrich Mann lived in several locations during his decade in Southern California. He and his wife lived first in Beverly Hills at 264 S. Doheny Drive and between 1942 and 1948 at 301 S. Swall Drive. It is in this home that his wife, Nelly, committed suicide in 1944. For his final two years, Mann lived in Santa Monica at 2145 Montana Avenue. Mann died in March 1950 shortly before his scheduled return to Europe. He was buried in Santa Monica at Woodlawn Cemetery. However, in 1961 his remains were removed and relocated to former East Berlin. In spite of the difficulties which he faced, Mann wrote some of his greatest works during his years in exile, including Die Jugend des Koenigs Henri Quatre (1935; Young Henry of Navarre), Der Atem (1949; The Breath) and his autobiographical Ein Zeitalter wird besichtigt (1945; An Age is Examined). Heinrich Mann's years in Southern California: 1940-1950.

  • Mitteilungen Für Die Presse
    Read the speech online: www.bundespraesident.de Page 1 of 4 Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier in a video message for the digital ceremony “Thinker, Poet, Democrat. Heinrich Mann on his 150th Birthday” in Berlin on 25 March 2021 Good evening from Schloss Bellevue, wherever you are tuning in from. This is not the first time that Berlin’s Academy of the Arts is hosting a ceremony in Heinrich Mann’s honour. In March 1931, invitations were issued for an event on the premises of the Prussian Academy of Arts to congratulate the newly elected Chairman of its Literature Section on his 60th birthday. The guests at the time included Ricarda Huch and Alfred Döblin, and the speakers were Max Liebermann, Adolf Grimme and Thomas Mann. They hailed the great man as a modern artist and “clandestine politician”, as a “grand écrivain” and “European moralist”. That was how the writer Heinrich Mann was feted at the time, in the Weimar Republic. What a wonderful, illustrious gathering to mark his birthday. Today, the Academy of the Arts has issued another invitation to honour Heinrich Mann, this time on his 150th birthday. The setting is, for various reasons, slightly different than it was back then, with a livestream as opposed to a gala reception, a video message as opposed to a speech, and the Federal President in attendance as opposed to the great man’s brother and Nobel Laureate. Nevertheless, I am delighted that we want to try this evening to revive the spirit of Heinrich Mann and his age. We want to take a closer look at a writer, who after his death in 1950 was co opted by the GDR for its own political ends, who was eclipsed in West Germany by his renowned younger brother, and who is not forgotten yet whose works are seldom read today.

  • 'Stimulating Our Literature and Deepening Our Culture'
    Quærendo 47 (2017) 222-251 brill.com/qua ‘Stimulating our Literature and Deepening our Culture’ Translated Books as Book-of-the-Month Club Selections, 1926 to 1973 Corinna Norrick-Rühl Gutenberg-Institut für Weltliteratur und schriftorientierte Medien Johannes Gutenberg-University Mainz, Germany [email protected] Abstract One of the most prominent book clubs in the US was the Book-of-the-Month Club, established in 1926. The Book-of-the-Month Club marketed books as commodities for consumption, promoting leisurely reading among the growing middle class. But the Book-of-the-Month Club also claimed to be ‘stimulating our literature and deepening our culture’, and in fact, dozens of selected authors went on to receive the Pulitzer Prize or the Nobel Prize for Literature. The body of research on the Book-of-the-Month Club includes Janice A. Radway’s well-known multi-method study A Feeling for Books (1997). But translations among Book-of-the-Month Club selections have not yet been considered. Focusing in particular on books translated into English from German, this paper will present new data on originally foreign-language books that were selected by the Book-of-the-Month Club judges, thereby guaranteeing European authors maximum visibility and exorbitant sales in the US market, which was (and is) usually considered difficult to tap into for non-Anglophone writers. Keywords book sales clubs – Book-of-the-Month Club – translation(s) – German literature Worldwide, millions of readers have accessed their reading material and enter- tainment media through mail-order book sales clubs like Círculo de Lectores, the Nederlandse Boekenclub, Bertelsmann Club or the Book-of-the-Month © koninklijke brill nv, leiden, 2017 | doi 10.1163/15700690-12341383Downloaded from Brill.com09/25/2021 08:08:03PM via free access ‘Stimulating our literature and deepening our culture’ 223 Club.

  • Syllabus German Karl May Films This Course Is Designed for Advanced
    Syllabus German Karl May Films This course is designed for advanced students of German and fluent speakers. The language of all films and conversation is in German. Classic Karl May films produced in the 1960’s will be shown. Subtitles in German (Deutsch für Hörgeschädigte) assist those who do not understand the entire spoken dialog in order to both improve their listening comprehension and follow the action of the film. The films available for the course are: Der Schatz im Silbersee 1962 106 min Winnetou 1 1963 97 min Winneout 2 1964 91 min Unter Geiern 1964 99 min Winnetou 3 1965 89 min Der Ölprinz 1965 87 min Winnetou und das Halbblut Apanatschi 1966 87 min Winnetou and sein Freund Old Firehand 1966 91 min Old Surehand 1965 89 min Because of the length of the films several class periods will be devoted to each and class members will decide which films to watch. Time will be alloted for discussion and sharing of memories. Every boy and many girls growing up during the twentieth century in Germany and elsewhere in Europe assiduously devoured the Karl May adventure novels. Karl Friedrich May (pronounced „My“ was born February 25, 1842 and died March 30, 1912. He is one of the best selling German writers of all time, noted mainly for books set in the American Old West and similar books set in the Orient and Middle East. With the advent of the 1960’s films children and adults of all ages enjoyed Karl May in the film versions and the series soon became classics in Germany much as the Humphrey Bogart films did in the US.

  • Integration and Name Changing Among Jewish Refugees from Central Europe in the United States
    Reprinted from NAMES VOLUME VI • NUMBER 3 • SEPTEMBER 1958 Integration and Name Changing among Jewish Refugees from Central Europe in the United States ERNEST MAASS Acknowledgements The idea of writing this study came to me a number of years ago. However, it was not until I received a fellowship for this purpose from the Jewish Conference on Material Claims against Germany, Inc., which I gratefully acknowledge, that I was able to give the subject the time and attention I felt it deserved. In furthering the progress of the work several persons were particularly helpful. They gave me freely of their time, encouraged me in various ways, offered welcome critical advice, or commented on the draft manus- cript. Special thanks for such help are due to Abraham Aidenoff, William R. Gaede, Kurt R. Grossmann, Erwin G. Gudde, Hugo Hahn, Ernest Hamburger, Alfred L. Lehmann, Adolf Leschnitzer, Martin Sobotker, Arieh Tartakower and Fred S. Weissman. Among those who throughout the years brought name changes to my attention I am especially indebted to my mother. I also wish to thank the many other persons from whose active interest in the project I have profited and whom I may have failed to mention. Background, Immigration, Integration SE TERM "JEWISH REFUGEE FROM CENTRAL EUROPE", in this paper, refers to Jews from Germany and Austria who left their native lands in 1933 or later as a result of persecution by the Na- tional Socialist regime. It also includes Jews from Czechoslovakia whose mother tongue was German and. who escaped after the annexation by Germany of the Sudetenland in 1938 and the esta- blishment of a German Protectorate in 1939.

  • Heinrich Mann's Small Town Tyrant: the Grammar School Novel As A
    Heinrich Mann’s Small Town Tyrant... 63 ACTA NEOPHILOLOGICA UDK: 821.112.2.09-31Mann H. DOI: 10.4312/an.49.1-2.63-71 Heinrich Mann’s Small Town Tyrant: The Grammar School Novel as a German Prototype of Academic Fiction Dieter Fuchs Abstract This article considers the German Grammar School Novel from the first half of the twen- tieth century an all but forgotten Germanophone prototype of campus fiction. Whereas the Anglo-American campus novel of the 1970s, 80s and 90s features university profes- sors as future-related agents of Western counterculture and free thought, the Grammar School Novel satirizes the German grammar school teacher known as Gymnasialprofessor as a representative of the past-related order of the autocratic German state apparatus from the beginning of the twentieth century. As Heinrich Mann’s 1905 novel Professor Unrat / Small Town Tyrant (the source text of Marlene Dietrich’s debut movie The Blue Angel) may be considered a foundational work of the German Grammar School Novel corpus, the main part of the article offers a sample analysis of this text.
