Friederike Mayröcker

Friederike Mayröcker (2015)

Friederike Mayröcker (born December 20, 1924 in Vienna ; † June 4, 2021 there ) was an Austrian writer . From the 1950s until her death, she steadily published poetry , prose and radio plays and is one of the most important authors of her generation in German-speaking countries.

life and work

As a child, Mayröcker received formative impressions for her lifelong literary work during her summer stays in Deinzendorf (near Retz). In 1939, when she was fifteen, she wrote her first literary texts. From 1946 on she worked as an English teacher at various Viennese secondary schools, in the meantime she made up her Matura in 1950 . Mayröcker met Otto Basil in 1946 , the editor of the avant-garde post-war magazine Plan , in which Paul Celan and Erich Fried also published. A few years later the influential critic Hans Weigel published her poems. Andreas Okopenko discovered her for the magazine Neue Wege and brought her into contact with the Viennese group around HC Artmann and Gerhard Rühm .

Ernst Jandl and Friederike Mayröcker, on the occasion of a reading, Vienna 1974

In 1954 she met Ernst Jandl . Both were obsessed with word and language, but still had to rely on the job of teacher, which they both continued to do. The first publications received little attention from the public; they were assigned to the experimental Viennese group, which, like Dada, frightened the citizens and made publishers shy. Jandl therefore went to the Federal Republic of Germany in 1963 and also took Mayröcker's work with him. In Stuttgart he won Max Bense for her texts, in Berlin Walter Höllerer with the Berlin Literary Colloquium . In 1965 her volume of poetry was published metaphorically. Gerald Bisinger brokered them to Rowohlt Verlag , where Death by Muses appeared in 1966 with an afterword by Eugen Gomringer , which emphasized the novel nature of Mayröcker's assembly technology . Mayröcker and Jandl became known to a wider public through their jointly written radio play Fünf Mann Menschen , for which they received the radio play award of the war blind . Working for the radio made a modest life possible without teaching. 1969 Mayröcker was as a teacher karen grace and could devote undivided major prose works and other radio plays now. In 1977 she took early retirement.

Friederike Mayröcker, Vienna 1974

Friederike Mayröcker was considered one of the most important contemporary writers in the German-speaking area. She owed this position primarily to her poetry, but she was also successful with prose and radio plays . She wrote four of them together with Ernst Jandl , with whom she lived from 1954 until his death in 2000. Parts of her work have been translated into numerous languages.

Mayröcker described her way of working as follows: “I live in pictures. I see everything in pictures, all of my past, memories are pictures. I turn the pictures into language by stepping right into the picture. I get in until it becomes language. "

Mayröcker's prose work has often been described as autofictional . The prominent first-person narrators mostly report on everyday and everyday occurrences, often classic autobiographical elements such as citations from private conversations, letters and diary entries are incorporated into the prose. Paradoxically, Mayröcker repeatedly insisted on her “lack of biography” in interviews. Because most of the information about her life comes from the author's work, Inge Arteel concludes about Mayröcker's writing: “The work is not autobiographical, but there is no life outside the work, life is therefore the work.” This reflects Mayröcker's autofictional prose the possibilities and limits of autobiographical referentiality always with.

At FemBio she was rated as follows: "Her texts defy rational access, are a poetic, often melancholy web, are dreams that enchant us - and liberate." Jörg Drews writes about her book Paloma in the Süddeutsche Zeitung : "... die The author says quite uncolouredly that she is 84 years old. But Friederike Mayröcker writes in her 'pneumatic tattered language', breathing everything in a melancholy haste, in the tone of a delightful lyre, plaintive and at the same time happy in writing and only in writing. "

In 2008, the "BioPic" documentary The writing and silence about the writer was published. For the volume of poetry fleurs published in 2016, which marks the end of a trilogy after études (2013) and cahier (2014), Mayröcker won the first Austrian Book Prize in the same year . 2019 acquired the literary archive of the Austrian National Library a Teilvorlass . In 2021 she was chosen for her prose volume da ich m Morgen und Mossgrün. Step up to the window nominated for the Leipzig Book Fair Prize in the fiction category.

In 1973, Friederike Mayröcker was a founding member of the Graz Authors' Convention and took part in their meetings and events. She lived in Vienna, where she died in June 2021 at the age of 96.
