Table of contents

Life

Bruno Brehm was born in 1916 (due to the regulations on systemic nobility ) ennobled officer Josef Joachim von Brehm [1] in the Carniola . Brehm spent his childhood and youth in the garrison towns of Pilsen , Prague , Cheb and Znojmo . After graduating , Brehm studied German for a semester in Vienna .

When the First World War broke out , he volunteered and initially did his one-year military service with the field artillery in Vienna. During the war he was promoted to officer and in September 1914 he was taken prisoner by the Russians , where he met the later writer Edwin Erich Dwinger , who was severely wounded. In 1916 he was exchanged for Russian prisoners and shortly thereafter seriously injured again at Asiago . [2]
Degree and freelance writer

Returning from the war as a captain , Brehm studied art history at the University of Vienna, and later art and prehistory in Gothenburg and Stockholm . Brehm successfully completed his studies in Vienna with the dissertation `The origin of Germanic animal ornamentation`. After receiving his doctorate , he became a bookseller in Vienna in 1922 and was also briefly employed as an assistant at the University of Vienna. [3]

In 1928 Brehm settled in Vienna as a freelance writer . Under the pseudonym `Bruno Clemens` he had his first success in 1931 with his story `The Yellow Maple Leaf`. [4] He first became known for his partly nostalgic, partly cheerful examination of the end of the monarchy. Several titles were created in quick succession, which were very popular at the time and justified his success. The books `Apis and Este` (1931), `That was the end` (1932) and `Neither Kaiser nor King` (1933) form a trilogy from this thematic environment. The trilogy was published during the Nazi era with a total circulation of around 400,000 copies. [5]
`Annexation` of Austria and Second World War

After the annexation of Austria in 1938 to the German Reich , which Brehm had celebrated in verses in the Confessional Book of Austrian Poets (published by the Association of German Writers in Austria ) [6] , he applied for admission to the NSDAP on March 25, 1939 , was retrospectively banned from January 1, 1939. May 1938 (membership number 6,290,074) [7] [8] [9] and became a councilor of the city of Vienna. In the same year he took over the monthly `Der faithful Eckart`, which he published until 1942. In 1939 Brehm received the `Trilogy` (`Apis and Este`, `That was the end`, `Neither Kaiser nor King`)National Book Prize . In 1941 he became president of the Vienna Cultural Association . [10]

During World War II, Brehm was an orderly officer in Greece , Russia and North Africa . Brehm`s anti-Semitic attitude corresponded to the diction of the National Socialists. In 1941 he took part in the Weimar poets` meeting and spoke of `Jewish agitators` who prevented peace. [11] In 1942 he wrote: `When the Jews complain about their fate before the whole world, then we must tell them that it was they themselves who conjured up this fate.` In August 1944, in the final phase of the war , Brehm was put on the God-gifted list by Hitlerof the most important writers, which saved him from further military service and deployment at the front. [10] He then gave poetry readings, with a “morning celebration” planned for January 14, 1945 in occupied Poland, the so-called General Government . [10]
post war period

In 1945, Brehm was arrested for his political involvement, but released a short time later. Leo Perutz , who had emigrated to Palestine, supported Brehm`s denazification process . Perutz wrote about this in a 1947 letter to his friend Hugo Lifczis:

`In June 1938, when such a visit could be dangerous for an Aryan, Bruno Brehm appeared in my apartment and offered me his help. I can completely forget a person`s slovenliness, but I cannot simply erase a brave, decent and friendly attitude from my memory. [...] dr Brehm was a real friend and that`s why I won`t let him down today when he`s in a bad way. [12] ”

In the Soviet occupation zone, many of his writings were placed on the list of literature to be discarded , [13] [14] followed by The Border Right Through the Heart (1938) in the German Democratic Republic . [15]

From 1953 to 1955, Brehm took part in the Pürgger Poetry Weeks , which were initiated by the then Styrian ÖVP member of parliament, Alfred Rainer . There Brehm is said to have answered the journalist Friedrich Torberg , who had introduced himself with the words `Friedrich Torberg, from the New Age `: `Bruno Brehm, from the old days.` [16]

From 1960 Brehm was a member of the right-wing extremist Society for Free Journalism . He tried in the trilogy (1960-1961) The Twelve Years Reich to work through the Second World War. When dealing with Adolf Hitler, Brehm failed both formally and with his arguments.

Bruno Brehm died on June 5, 1974 in Altaussee at the age of 82.

His estate is privately owned.
