August Julius Naundorff

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

August Julius Naundorff (born January 13, 1820 in Dresden ; † March 11, 1907 there ) was a Saxon officer and writer . He used the pseudonym Julius Dornau.

Life

During the revolution of 1848 Naundorff was considered a democratic officer. In 1848 he and Friedrich von Wilucki co-founded the German Warrior Newspaper , which defended the achievements of the March Revolution , but withdrew before the first edition was published because only Wilucki's name was mentioned in the headline.

Naundorff was in the 1870s lieutenant colonel in the Saxon army , head of the fortress prison and the garrison hospital in Dresden and secretary of the Albert Association , the regional women's association of the Red Cross founded in 1867. In 1886 he was given the character of a colonel . He was a knight of the first class of the Order of Civil Merit , holder of the Commander's Second Class of the Albrecht Order and the Order of the Red Eagle III. Class and the Order of the Crown II. Class.

His depiction, Unter dem rothen Kreuz, from 1867 dealt with military nursing . The magazine Der Collector ruled: “The book does the greatest honor to the heart and the scientific education of its author and is in the initially involved circles of physicians, Johanniter and all Others who devote themselves to charitable works have been recognized as the best work of its kind. ”The pacifist Bertha von Suttner described it as a“ harrowing book ”.

He wrote his works anonymously, under a pseudonym or under his name.
