Georg Hermann.
No full textThe internationally renowned author of numerous novels, essays, and articles, Georg Hermann, was born as Georg Borchardt in Berlin-Friedenau on October 7, 1871, the youngest of six children in a well-established Jewish family. Later in life he used his father’s first name Hermann as his surname when writing. Contrary to the expectations for a young man from a reputable family, Hermann did not pursue the Abitur exam in a Gymnasium (secondary school), but instead received a one-year certificate in 1890, leaving school to become an apprentice salesman at a tie company. From 1896 until 1899 he worked in the Statistical Office of Berlin, at the same time attending literature and art history lectures at the University of Berlin. Afterwards he worked as a freelance writer and art critic.His first book, 'Spielkinder', was published in 1896, but he did not become well-known until 1906, with the publication of 'Jettchen Gebert', followed by its sequel, 'Henriette Jacoby'. These novels told the story of the life of a young woman living in Jewish Berlin during the Biedermeier period of the 1820s and 1830s. Politically active, Georg Hermann was also a member of the Central-Verein deutscher Staatsbürger jüdischen Glaubens.Having become known for his pacifist tendencies through his writing, and because of his Jewish heritage, Georg Hermann and his family fled to Holland shortly after the burning of the Reichstag in 1933. Although the rest of his family was saved from the Nazis after their occupation of Holland in 1943, Georg Hermann was sent to the Dutch concentration camp of Westerbork. On November 16, 1943 he was transported to Auschwitz and either died during transport or shortly after his arrival.Digital ImageRecord added to DigiTool. Aleph record suppressed. J.

He is best known as a master etcher, lithographer and early Zionist. He studied for five years at the Berlin Academy and in 1908 wrote Die Kunst des Radierens (The Art of Etching), while mentoring artists such as Marc Chagall, Max Liebermann and Lesser Ury. His art was included in an exhibition at the Fifth Zionist Congress and he helped establish the religious Zionist movement called Mizrachi. Struck was an Orthodox Jew but believed that culture and religion could thrive cooperatively in Israel. He immigrated to Haifa where he created an artists' community and participated in the development of the Tel Aviv Museum and the Bezalel art school in Jerusalem. He died in 1944.digitizedDigital imag

A study of Georg Hermann's pre-First World War novels with a special reference to the presentation of the city of Berlin.
No full textPhDThe method of analysis employed in this thesis includes the comparative study of
Hermann's novels with contemporary aesthetic and sociological writings as well as with
works by other contemporary writers and visual artists. This approach places Hermann's
pre-First World War novels in a cultural historical context and helps to re-establish
Hermann as a writer whose works mirror in a representative way the developments of
turn-of-the-century aesthetics and of the contemporary depiction of Berlin.
For each novel in turn, I first show how Hermann adapts the formal aspects of his
writing to the thematic concern at hand: experimenting with the aesthetic principles of
Naturalism in the autobiographical Spielkinder (1897); with Realism in the tradition of
Fontane in the Biedermeier `Doppelroman' Jettchen Geberts Geschichte (Jettchen
Gebert (1906) and Henriette Jacoby (1908)); and with Impressionism in Kubinke
(1910); until, in Die Nacht des Doktor Herzfeld (1912), he largely abandons the
presentation of a plot-based narrative in favour of the Modernist concept of the novel as
reflecting the hero's consciousness.
The second strand of analysis for each novel follows the development of Hermann's
representations of the emerging metropolis of Berlin from 1897 to 1912. The detailed
description of physical and social reality is, over the years, increasingly complemented
by the depiction of atmosphere and by analysis of the new metropolitan society. A
critical attitude to the modem aspects of the city is expressed through direct social
criticism in Spielkinder and, in a less pronounced form, by the nostalgic mood of the
Jettchen novels. However, in the two following novels this makes way for a nonjudgemental
depiction of city society, expressed in a detached, aestheticising panorama
of the city (Kubinke) and in a psychological analysis of the metropolitan person's
mental make-up (Die Nacht des Doktor Herzfeld)
