Akif Pirinçci (2014)

Akif Pirinçci [ piˈɾint͡ʃd͡ʒi ] (born October 20, 1959 in Istanbul , Turkey ) is a German - Turkish writer who became internationally known for his cat crime novels , beginning with Felidae (1989). Since 2012 he has been a socio-political commentator and speaker at right-wing populist and Islamophobic events. Because of utterances in a speech on October 19, 2015 Pirinçci was from Dresden District Court for sedition sentenced.

Life

Pirinçci came to Germany in 1969 with his parents and older sister. The family initially lived in Ulmen (Eifel) and moved to Weißenthurm in 1970 . Among other things, the father worked as a truck driver, the mother as a factory worker. There Pirinçci attended secondary school after episodes at grammar school and secondary school, which he left with a degree. As a schoolboy, he began writing scripts and stories. In 1974 the Bavarian Broadcasting Corporation produced his short film Herbert K. or The Duty To Be Young . Two years later he won first prize in a competition organized by Hessischer Rundfunk with his science fiction radio play The Strange Disease, number 48971 . The radio play was sold abroad before Pirinçci made his debut as a writer in 1979 with the short story At the End of All Time , which was published in the anthology The Others by Heyne Verlag. In Vienna he studied film for a while. His scripts, written as commissioned work after graduation, were rarely made into films. With his second novel Felidae , which was a success of millions, he achieved his breakthrough and financial independence. Pirinçci lives in Bonn . His wife, with whom he has a son, separated from him in 2013.

Novels and film adaptations

Tears are always the end

In 1980 Pirinçci's first self- published novel , the love story Tears Are Always the End . After a provocative television appearance Pirinçcis in the ZDF telecast Litera tour one was in Goldmann Verlag aware of the young author and agreed to print 20,000 copies, without having obtained from the contents of the book knowledge. The novel, with references to the English Schauer romance , horror and Beat Generation is interspersed - the title goes to a verse Allen Ginsberg back - points to Pirinçcis later novels in which he is the serious literature served, without pretending itself, highly literary works to compose. According to Tom Cheesman, Pirinçci was already not recognizable as a Turkish-German author in his first novel, which in retrospect amounts to a manifesto of individual liberation from his former Turkish origin. “Anyone who hopes to find out something about the thinking and feeling of the second generation of foreigners in his book will be disappointed: he writes next to nothing about Turks and their problems,” said a newspaper report about the debut and the author.

Felidae

His breakthrough as a writer came in 1989 with Felidae , a detective novel in which a cat acts as the main character. The book has been translated into seventeen languages. With Francis (1993), Cave Canem (1999), Das Duell (2002), Salve Roma! (2004) and Schandtat (2007) were sequels of the cat crime series . In the course of this success, his first work, which had not been very successful until then, was reissued. In 1993 Felidae was made into a cartoon of the same name . Pirinçci wrote the script together with Martin Kluger . Under the direction of Michael Schaack , Mario Adorf , Klaus Maria Brandauer and Helge Schneider gave the cats their votes.

The appearance of animal investigators, not only as companions as in the Lassie or Kommissar Rex films, but within an animal society has a long tradition, but the stories are not primarily about crimes and their investigation. The novel, published in 1989, contributed to Pirinçci being referred to as the "inventor of modern animal crime". In 1990 Rita Mae Brown's Wish You Were Here appeared with a cat as an investigator. The first volume in the Mrs. Murphy series was translated into German in 1992. Felidae itself did not appear in English until 1993, which is why an influence cannot be excluded, but is rather unlikely. The sub-genre was included in German literature by subsequent writers such as Leonie Swann with Glennkill and Garou or Henning Ahrens (Tiertage) .

According to Volker Neuhaus , the role model can be found in the Hard-Boiled School : “Akif Pirinçci loots the arsenal of the American school without hesitation with grateful borrowings from British tradition, marked and unmarked: The smart Francis, modeled on Chandler's Phil Marlowe , meets the battle-hardened Loner à la John Wayne as well as the gangster king with his gorillas, the armchair detective Pascal or the blind beauty. "

The hull , yin , the back door

The novel Der Rumpf was published as early as 1992 , in which a man who was born without arms or legs plans and carries out the perfect murder in a home for the disabled. In a review, Der Spiegel points out that Pirinçci does not think about enlightenment when writing and that social criticism is a horror for him. Pirinçci thinks that politics “has no place in art”.

In 1997, Yin , a detective novel with transitions to dystopia , was published: the novel tells how a virus wipes out the male population and thus enables women to found a new society without patriarchy and gender struggle. The failure of this utopia then makes people themselves appear as their real virus.

The novel Die Damalstür , first published in 2001 , is about a painter who looks back on a failed life. In a frenzy, he stumbles through the eponymous "Back then", which takes him ten years back in life. This is how he meets the man he was himself ten years ago. The protagonist decides to get himself out of the way so that he can start over with his wife. Based on this novel, Jan Berger wrote the script for the film Die Tür .

Reception as a writer

Author role

Akif Pirinçci, particularly with his Felidae novels, has long been one of the most internationally successful contemporary German-language authors. Despite his Turkish origins, he avoided being hastily categorized as an author of migrant literature. "An exception is Akif Pirincci, who tries to write interesting novels as a millionaire in his villa in Bad Godesberg , but does not see himself as a migrant author anyway," said the Turkish Germanist Yüksel Kocadoru. Metin Buz counts Pirinçci, along with Zafer Şenocak, to those representatives of the second generation of immigrants whose topics are no longer dictated by the world of guest workers. Tom Cheesman saw a clear positioning as a German author in Pirinçci's debut, while with subsequent works, similar to Chuck Palahniuk , Lilian Jackson Braun or Joanne K. Rowling, he managed to reach a large readership by addressing fears across national borders that are peculiar to highly developed, western consumer societies.

In retrospect, Akif Pirinçci can be regarded as a member of a Turkish generation of authors who had their socialization in Germany, with which their integration had progressed further in contrast to the parents' generation, and who no longer wanted to be tied to their origins or to categories such as guest worker literature or migrant literature. In addition to Pirinçci and Şenocak, Joanna Flinik names the poet Zehra Çırak and states: “Many literary scholars point out that younger migrant authors in particular tend to devote themselves to the eternal subject of literature - love and death - rather than simply defining themselves through the prism of their origin let (want) ”. The Turkish Germanist Nuran Özyer pointed out that numerous Turkish authors of the first generation had their works translated into German, while the authors of the next generation of Turkish writers could neither translate German texts into Turkish nor write a text in Turkish. According to Marilya Veteto-Conrad, Pirinçci deliberately opposed his categorization as an author of foreign literature. In fact, at the beginning of his writing career, he disappointed the expectations of many journalists, whom he later accused of harboring cultural prejudices against Turks: “That you can only trust a Turkish writer to constantly write stories about Hassan who comes to Germany and something about neo-fascists here on the hat ”. In 1985 he deliberately declined to work on an edition of the magazine for cultural exchange .

Literary meaning

The literary criticism ignored Pirinçci's work. The debut was received euphorically by a few representatives of young pop literature in the scene papers, but otherwise largely punished with disregard or classified as trivial literature . In terms of literary sociology, Pirinçci can be seen as a representative of the second generation of migrant authors who emancipated themselves from their origins as authors: “The great Turkish migrant literature , however, is still a long time coming, or it may never come, because the youngsters don't just write German - like the very young Akif Pirincci, whose debut is often dismissed as trivial, but is still worth reading as the first small success of the second generation - but also because they stop thinking, feeling and, let's hope, being discriminated against as non-Germans. "

In 1994 Pirinçci attacked the literary critic Marcel Reich-Ranicki several times on the NDR Talk Show . He reproached him with the fact that literary criticism was reviewing a literature that was aloof from the readership; nor does he know why one should read Goethe . He did not worry that he was not reviewed, since literary criticism also ignored the most successful contemporary writer, Stephen King . In 2011 he again pointed out his commercial and international success, which was not noticed by German literary critics, and regretted the lack of reviews: “In ten years I have sold three million books in Germany, have been translated into 35 languages, and the British one occupied and Japanese bestseller list, a doctoral thesis and 12 master's theses were written on my books, but you will not find a review of my work that goes beyond 20 lines. My sixth book, Cave Canem , came out 20 days ago and has sold 30,000 copies to date. "

Clara Ervedosa recognizes in Pirinçci's novels a "tendency towards unusual topics and narrative constructions as well as apocalyptic visions and social criticism". Felidae sparked a fashion for animal crime fiction within crime fiction . While Leonie Swann achieved a similar success, numerous authors of the subgenre subsequently made use of the subgenre with more or less great success, such as Andrea Schacht and Moritz Matthies.

filming

The cartoon Felidae was released in 1994 and The Door in 2009 . While Pirinçci was involved in the script for the first film, the script for the second film was written by Jan Berger .

Journalistic and political activity

In 2009, Pirinçci gave an interview to the Islamophobic Internet portal Politically Incorrect , in which he stated that he was “every fiber of German”. Since 2012, he has been making increasing use of socio-political comments in conservative to right-wing populist contexts, including in the national-conservative weekly newspaper Junge Freiheit , in the magazine peculiarly free and in the online portal of the Sezession , the in-house magazine of the New Right . Since 2014 he has also appeared in fraternities and right-wing populist organizations such as Pegida and parties such as the AfD and the party Die Freiheit at readings. At the end of 2014, Pirinçci was defeated in a civil law dispute over offensive, anti-gay attacks on Facebook and accepted a penalty warrant for insulting in the same matter at the beginning of 2015 . Anti-Islamic inflammatory comments earned him a 30-day ban on the social network in autumn 2015 .

Blog axis of good

From 2012 to 2013 Pirinçci was a regular author of the blog The Axis of Good . In his contribution The slaughter has begun , Pirinçci claimed that the death of Daniel S. was part of a “series of more and more bestialities that are mostly committed by young men of Muslim faith on German men”. The number of victims of this, according to Pirinçci, "creeping genocide [s] " is deliberately kept secret. Tobias Kaufmann then sharply contradicted Pirinçci on the same blog. He compared him to conspiracy theorists and accused him of using NPD rhetoric. Pirinçci also received harsh criticism from Deniz Yücel (then taz ), who rated Pirinçci's style as right-wing extremist in terms of form and content . Jochen Grabler saw in Pirinçci "a seducer of the people , inspired by Goebbelsian perfidy". He constructs a genocidal gang out of a violent minority of a minority religious group. He did not have any evidence, however, because the number of acts of violence committed by young people had actually decreased in recent years.

Journal strangely free

In January 2014, Pirinçci published an abusive letter to a former Danish prostitute , who had published an open letter to her former customers in the daily newspapers Aftenposten and Die Welt as well as the news portal news.au.com on Facebook and at peculiarly free . In it Pirinçci confessed himself to be a frequent suitor. Emma then accused him of feeling “sensitive in the cat's soul” with the Felidae novels, but that he lacked empathy for women.

Journalists watch

Pirinçci also publishes on Journalistenwatch , a platform of the New Right .

Germany out of her mind

The bestseller Deutschland von Sinnen is a polemical non-fiction book published in March 2014 in which Pirinçci attacks what he considers to be the privileged position of homosexuals , migrants and women in the political debate in the Federal Republic of Germany. In it, he agitates against minorities who reject offers of cooperation and undemocratically have a lot of influence and blocking power. The work is characterized by a coarse, polemical language, which caused numerous reactions and critical reviews. The Brockhaus sums up that the book is described by critics as "inhuman and hateful". At the beginning of 2014, it was consistently among the top 10 paperback books in the non-fiction category on the Spiegel bestseller lists . It was in that of André F. Lichtschlag laid Edition special way as imprint in Manuscriptum-Verlag Thomas Hoofs released.

Readings

Pirinçci has been invited to readings by members of the Burschenschaftliche Gemeinschaft several times . In May 2014 he read from his senses for the Frankonia fraternity in Erlangen . Among the guests were the NPD state manager Axel Michaelis , the neo-Nazi journalist Jürgen Schwab , the right-wing extremist scene lawyer Frank Miksch and other activists from the right-wing extremist scene. The Juso-HSG organized a protest event. In the course of the year Pirinçci also read at the fraternity Danubia Munich and the Hamburg fraternity Germania .

Pirinçci often appeared at the invitation of AfD events, for example in May 2014 in the Meistersingerhalle in Nuremberg , where Verena Brüdigam moderated. According to the Nürnberger Nachrichten, Pirinçci said: "I don't care if they call me a Nazi, I don't give a shit". In September 2014, the AfD Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania sponsored a reading in Stralsund . The district association of AfD Osnabrück invited him to an event at the end of October 2014. A reading planned for June in Stuttgart at the invitation of the AfD youth organization Junge Alternative was canceled , allegedly also due to pressure from the mother party.

The magazine peculiarly free organized a reading with Pirinçci in Bonn's bridge center. In June he read at the invitation of the Witikobund at the Sudeten German Day in Augsburg. The mayor of the city distanced himself.

In November 2014 Pirinçci read from his book in Dresden , insulted politicians, gays and women and promoted the AfD. The invitation from the FDP-affiliated Wilhelm Külz Foundation led to a minor scandal, and the Goethe Institute withdrew its room approval. The chairman of the board of directors of the foundation and member of the FDP state parliament Thomas Felsner defended the reading. The moderator was the Saxon FDP press spokesman Michael Deutschmann . The event was moved to a hotel owned by a local FDP politician. A number of Pegida functionaries and Pegida supporters were also present at this reading.

At a rally organized by the Bonn-based Pegida offshoot Bogida in December 2014, he read a short passage from his book.

In January 2015, Pirinçci was supposed to read Die Freiheit in Oberhausen for the Islamophobic party . The hotel canceled the premises. In November 2015, an event with Pirinçci in a Herford hotel had to be canceled and relocated to another location because, according to a spokesman for the AfD youth organization Junge Alternative , which acted as the organizer, there were massive threats. However, the hotel's manager disagreed with this account and said she had received no threats.

Dispute sex education

In July 2014, Pirinçci published an insulting criticism of the social scientist Elisabeth Tuider on Facebook . He was referring to an interview conducted by the HNA with Tuider on June 30, 2014 , in which Tuider takes the view that, within the framework of contemporary sex education , questions from students about sexual practices should also be included in a corresponding teaching concept . As a result, threats of violence and further abuse were posted against Tuider. When asked by the taz , Pirinçci justified his choice of words by stating that otherwise the media would “not notice” his criticism. When the social scientist Heinz-Jürgen Voss then initiated a support campaign for Tuider, Pirinçci attacked him with anti-gay demeaning. In private law way procured Voss an injunction . Accordingly, Pirinçci is not allowed to repeat the statements when threatened with a fine of 250,000 euros. In January 2015, Pirinçci also accepted a penalty order and paid a fine of 8,000 euros for insulting . In March 2017, the Bonn Regional Court tried him.

Appearance for the Pegida anniversary in October 2015

After a first appearance in December 2014 at the Bonn-based Pegida offshoot Bogida , organized by right-wing extremists , in which he read a short passage from his book Deutschland von Sinnen , Pirinçci appeared on the anniversary of the Pegida demonstrations on October 19, 2015 in Dresden as the announced "Star guest" on. The day before, he had already announced a text on his blog , addressed expressly to the "Mr. [n] Public Prosecutor", "which will set standards in terms of angry speech in this country". Pirinçci said he accepted an invitation from the then Pegida activist Tatjana Festerling , a "good friend" whom he met on Facebook.

speech

In his half-hour speech, Pirinçci used the controversial formulation that later became known in the media as “KZ-Passage”:

"Obviously one seems to have put aside the fear and respect for one's own people in the power [this term specifically referred to the Hessian District President Walter Lübcke, who was named immediately before and who was responsible for refugee accommodation ], so completely that they recommend leaving the country with a shrug can, if he kindly doesn't parry. ”- pause, applause from the audience,“ resistance ”shouts “ Of course there are other alternatives. But unfortunately the concentration camps are currently out of order. ”- Applause from the audience

The concentration camp statement referred to a statement by the CDU politician Lübcke, who had defended the establishment of an initial reception center with the argument that anyone who did not represent these values ​​could leave Germany at any time. In addition, in his speech Pirinçci described politicians as " Gauleiter against their own people", today's Germany as a "shitty state" and asylum seekers as "fleeing sluts". Muslims would “pump unbelievers full of their Muslim juice”, there was a threat of a “Muslim rubbish dump” in Germany. He described (primarily Muslim) refugees as “invaders”, “useless and cultureless”, “colonialists” and “refugees”. With regard to Muslims, he spoke of a “highly pathological preoccupation with anything that smells of fucking and violence, with a certain Allah showing them the way”. Alliance 90 / The Greens he called a "children Ficker Party" and the speaker of the Erfurt mosque a "Muslim Fritzen with Taliban beard" which have so much in common with the German culture "as my asshole with perfumery".

Representation of the "concentration camp passage" by the media

Many German media initially falsely reported that Pirinçci had related the concentration camp statement to refugees. This sparked a debate about errors in the media handling of Pirinçci's speech. According to Stefan Niggemeier in the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung , it is unsettling in and of itself that the majority of the major German media fail to correctly reproduce a decisive, easily verifiable fact. In view of the suspicion and the "lying press" accusations of media critics, it is all the more devastating how this mistake dominates reporting across all media genres and journalists refuse to take note of the facts. Pirinçci's lawyer Joachim Steinhöfel obtained injunctions against the BZ and the WDR. According to Matthias Kamann , Pirinçci accepted to bring the term “concentration camp” close to the refugee issue. For Patrick Gensing , the interpretation of the controversial passage was “by no means so clear-cut”, since many people who would have listened to the speech would also have understood that Pirinçci was referring to refugees. It is “astonishing” that “a writer knows how to express himself so imprecisely” who is “well aware” that “the German public is listening to the term KZ”. Martin Niewendick wrote that Pirinçci had “made the new Jews out of the so-called asylum critics and the new Nazis out of politicians and officials from the Federal Republic of Germany”.

Reactions

Due to several criminal charges , the Dresden public prosecutor's office opened an investigation into sedition the day after the speech .

The right-wing populist Pegida founder Lutz Bachmann apologized the following day for Pirinçci's "impossible appearance" and said he should have switched off the microphone immediately. This failure was a "serious mistake". The webmaster of his blog Little Akif resigned after Pirinçci's Pegida speech and left a farewell letter. In it he describes that he was ashamed of Pirinçci and that he pointed out that "95% of your readers come from right-wing and ultra-right referring websites, and that you are fueling their hatred of prejudices and fears". The International Auschwitz Committee called Pirinçci's remarks a “disgusting signal of shamelessness”.

boycott

The Random House publishing group distanced itself from Pirinçcis utterances and stopped selling his fiction titles. The Manuscriptum-Verlag, which specializes in right-wing readership, which had published Pirinçci's new book Die große Verschwulung , and the Kopp Verlag - according to information from the Manuscriptum-Verlag - ended their collaboration with the writer before the Pegida appearance. The book wholesalers KNV , Umbreit and Libri as well as the retailers Amazon , Mayersche Buchhandlung and Thalia removed the Pirinçcis titles from their program a few days after the appearance; at Thalia, orders are only possible in the bookstores upon explicit customer request. Because of this boycott, the Manuscriptum-Verlag has only been delivering Pirinçci's new book, Die große Verschwulung, in a print run of 20,000 copies , directly to end customers by post since November 2015 . In the meantime (as of 2020) it is available again along with other books by Pirinçci on Amazon Germany.

Heribert Seifert criticized Pirinçci's boycott by the German book trade in the Neue Zürcher Zeitung . This aims not only at the exclusion of vulgarly aggressive journalism, but at the complete eradication of a writer from public perception. In addition, in the same media world that has just shown solidarity with Je suis Charlie with a magazine that can keep up with Pirinçci's political statements in “resentment-laden vulgarity”, there is hardly any opposition to “such purgatory furor”.

The Junge Alternative showed solidarity with Pirinçci and announced the termination of an existing "partner program" with Amazon. One could “not work with people who would undermine freedom of expression in Germany out of cheap opportunism”. A member of the AfD federal board praised the action as the “right step”.

David Berger , former editor-in-chief of the gay magazine Männer , who had been dismissed for a text that relativized the Holocaust, criticized a "relapse of the German book trade into barbarism" through boycotts and announced shredding campaigns. It is made almost impossible for the reader to get an idea for himself. This approach even goes beyond the censorship abolished by the Catholic Inquisition , the decisions of which were only dependent on the content of the specific book. This means a farewell to the thinking for which Voltaire and the other great philosophers of Europe stand.

Pirinçci's opinion

Pirinçci considered leaving Germany based on the reactions to his Pegida appearance. He described his speech to the Stern as a “huge mistake” because he had given it to the “wrong audience”, and “that about the concentration camp, this neurotic German word, [...] was an even bigger mistake. It was an invitation to misinterpretation. ”Pirinçci emphasized his gratitude towards Germany and his aversion to a“ Muslim society ”. He is neither a "Nazi", nor has he anything "with rights to the hat", but is "a controlled lunatic". The Pegida activist Festerling scanned his text before the event and found it "funny". In the Junge Freiheit , Pirinçci said that “an incredible amount of pressure had been built up by other authors of all people, that is, colleagues”. That is "really unbelievable". “Our instruments as authors” are “freedom of expression, freedom of the press, freedom of art”. Instead, writers demanded "that another writer be banned". To the Express , Pirinçci reiterated his Islamophobia, defended and sometimes repeated verbatim his abuse of refugees and refused an apology for his Pegida speech.

Publications since 2016

Since 2016, Pirinçci has been publishing, beginning with the book Umvolkung : How Germans Are Quietly and Quietly Exchanged , in the neureecht publishing house Antaios by Götz Kubitschek . In this work, Pirinçci polemicized against politicians, journalists and “refugees” and demanded that a “state that still deserves this name” should “not be allowed to enforce a humanism that is far from reality by blackmailing media hippies ”. In a message from Antaios Verlag, it was stated that Pirinçci was “the last author to date whose work in Germany was to be“ destroyed ”completely.

Criminal proceedings and convictions

Pegida criminal case

The Dresden District Court issued a penalty order against Pirinçci at the request of the Dresden Public Prosecutor to pay a fine of 180 daily rates of 65 euros each. The court saw the offense of sedition in his Pegida appearance; the penalty order was served on February 1, 2017. Pirinçci appealed against this. In the main hearing that followed the appeal, Pirinçci stated that he was “broke” and asked for a less severe sentence than that stated in the penalty warrant. An understanding was reached in criminal proceedings ; in the event of a confession, a lower sentence was promised than in the penalty order. Pirinçci made a confession through his lawyer: Although a number of passages in his speech were “covered by freedom of expression”, “two passages” would be “overly generalized”. With this the author was "overshot". The public prosecutor's office now requested a fine of 120 daily rates of 30 euros each, the court followed the defense's request and sentenced Pirinçci to a fine of 90 daily rates of 30 euros on 25 September 2017. The court is convinced that two passages of his speech exceeded the limits of freedom of expression: the description of refugees and their families as “Muslim rubbish dumps” and the general description of refugees as rapists. In his favor, the fact that he admitted the act and had to bear significant economic consequences and that he had not been suspicious for two years. After the trial, he told reporters, "I'm so sorry."

Proceedings at the Bonn District Court

On March 14, 2017, Pirinçci was sentenced to a fine of 5,100 euros (170 daily rates of 30 euros) at the Bonn District Court for sedition and insult. The reason was a hate speech entitled “Release of the Fickviehs” and a Facebook post from August 1, 2014, in which he insulted a sex researcher from Kassel as a “sex-obsessed straitjacket candidate”. On March 20, 2018, he withdrew the appeal lodged against this on advice from the court. The decision of the Bonn District Court is thus final.

Proceedings at the Bonn Regional Court and the Cologne Higher Regional Court

In another criminal case, Pirinçci was sentenced at the Bonn Regional Court for insulting at 120 daily rates of 30 euros each. The Bonn public prosecutor appealed against a partial acquittal to the Cologne Higher Regional Court . The OLG overturned this partial acquittal in December 2019, it saw the comparison of a journalist with “gas taps” as an insult of considerable weight and referred the matter back to the LG Bonn.
