Karl Ludwig Sand

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Carl Ludwig Sand

Karl Ludwig Sand , also Carl Ludwig Sand , (born October 5, 1795 in Wunsiedel , † May 20, 1820 in Mannheim ) was a radical German fraternity and the murderer August von Kotzebues .

Life

family

Karl Ludwig Sand came from an old Coburg family , originally aristocratic , which can be traced back to Thuringia since the 14th century . In Erlangen -born father Gottfried Christoph Sand (1753-1823) was in 1785 to the town judge and bailiff of the Principality of Bayreuth appointed lying Wunsiedel. In 1791 the principality fell to the Kingdom of Prussia . In 1797, Gottfried Christoph Sand became a legal advisor .

Gottfried Christoph Sand married Dorothea Johanna Wilhelmina Schöpf (1766–1826), the youngest daughter of Chamber Councilor Johann Martin Schöpf (1718–1778), the founder of the Brandenburg-Schöpfschen cotton factory, an early industrial company of regional importance. The family was one of the local notables.

youth

Karl Ludwig Sand was born in 1795 as the youngest of eight siblings, three of whom died early. From 1804 Sand attended the Latin school in Wunsiedel. He was considered a student with slow comprehension and persistent diligence. Determining influences of his childhood were on the one hand the culturally enlightened Protestantism and Prussian patriotism of his parents' home, on the other hand the experience of the French occupation. In the autumn of 1806 the Bayreuth area (and thus Wunsiedel) was occupied by French troops in the course of the coalition wars and ceded to France in 1807 with the Peace of Tilsit . The billeting and contributions meant a considerable economic burden for the region. Sand's family was also directly affected by the accompanying changes, since the French occupiers canceled his father's pension. In addition, there was the political and military uncertainty on the periphery of French rule.

From Easter 1810, Sand attended the gymnasium in Hof . He lived with the rector Georg Heinrich Saalfrank, who was on friendly terms with the Sand family. After the closure of the Hof high school as a result of the Montgelas reforms, he followed his teacher to the high school in Regensburg , which he graduated in September 1814.

At that time he was shaped by the enlightened Protestantism of his parents' house, who affirmed the justification of an act solely by conscience, by reading the German folkism of the "gymnastics father" and nationalist Friedrich Ludwig Jahn and the fall of Napoleon in 1814 and the beginning of Vienna Congress , which initially promised the realization of German national ideas. After graduating from high school, he went on a trip to Switzerland , but unfortunately found no replicas of Schiller's Tell in the country's residents .

Studied in Tübingen and Erlangen

On November 27, 1814, Sand enrolled at the University of Tübingen . A few days earlier, on November 19, 1814, the Corps Teutonia was founded there. Sand first became a fox ( Renonce ), then on April 22, 1815 a full member of Teutonia. When the rule of the Hundred Days began with Napoleon's return from exile on Elba , Sand volunteered and marched against France as a cadet of the Rezat district volunteer hunter corps. Before there was any contact with the enemy, the Battle of Waterloo ended Napoleon's brief reign. Sand's association remained for some time as an occupying force in Auxerre , in December 1815 the march home and the dissolution of the association took place.

After his return, Sand continued his studies in Protestant theology at the University of Erlangen , where, in contrast to Tübingen, the traditionalist, country-based student bodies still dominated. In June 1816, Sand became a member of the Franconia Landsmannschaft , which he wanted to reform from the inside and bring it to fraternity. When this plan failed, he resigned and was discredited by Franconia on August 18, 1816 . He then campaigned intensively for fraternity ideas in Erlangen and gathered a group of like-minded people. With them he founded the Erlangen fraternity on August 27, 1816 at their meeting place, a garden called Rütli on the Erlanger Burgberg . Because of her old German costume she was nicknamed Teutonia by her opponents. In December 1817 it merged with the general Erlangen fraternity, which today bears the name Burschenschaft der Bubenreuther .

“This Teutonia lived entirely on the will and the spirit of Sand, who tolerated no other will besides himself. Already his goal was the Christian-German fraternity, but his ideas were exaggerated, his words bombastic. He began and closed even the simplest events of Teutonia with prayer [...] With narrow-mindedness, even obstinacy, he championed his ideas. He had no eye for reality and he lacked the youthful freshness [...] "

Florian Clöter, co-founder of the Erlangen fraternity, Sand's close friend and housemate, describes him:

“The scientific work became very difficult for him, his comprehension was limited, his memory accepted only with difficulty, it was difficult or impossible to get at what he thought he had grasped with reasons, and he could become very agitated and bitter in the process; but his disposition was extremely noble, he was decidedly averse to everything common and unclean, ready to make sacrifices for everything genuine and good, loyal and devoted to friends. "

The professors considered him a hardworking and exemplary student and a deeply devout Christian. In a report by the academic senate of Erlangen University, which the Bavarian state government had requested on December 15, 1817 because of the "dangerous revolutionary spirit" of the newly founded fraternity, the Erlangen professors ruled on sand:

“We owe Carl Sand the creditable testimony that, during his stay in Erlangen, he was one of the most moral and exemplary students, and had the courage not to be misled by the persecution of the country teams. This is the unanimous view and conviction to which we jointly acknowledge by handwritten signature and Ew. Kgl. Lay majesty openly at your feet according to duty and conscience. "

On June 17, 1817, he gave his trial sermon in the Erlangen Neustädter Church . On June 18, he attended a celebration to commemorate the Battle of Waterloo. Four days later, Sand's friend Georg Friedrich Christoph Dittmar (1795–1817) drowned in front of his eyes, which resulted in a psychological crisis in Sand.

Wartburg Festival

From October 18 to 19, 1817, Sand took part in the Wartburg Festival in Eisenach . He was a member of the festival committee and attendant on the train to the Wartburg. At the festival, Sand distributed his little-noticed pamphlet on the establishment of a “general free fraternity”, which only had greater impact in 1818. Sand was involved in the symbolic book burning on the Wartenberg , in which, among other things, August von Kotzebue's story of the German Empire was burned. After the publication of a condescending report stolen from him to the Russian tsar about the patriotic newspaper Nemesis at the end of 1817, the fraternities assumed that Kotzebue was acting as a Russian spy against Germany. The historian Wolfgang Behringer sees widespread anti-Semitism in the Turner movement and among the advocates of the German national unity idea - he calls Sand's teacher Fries - an additional reason for the hatefulness of Kotzebues and the later murder of him, as von Kotzebue always a proponent of the complete Had been equality of the Jews .

Studied in Jena

After the Wartburg Festival, Sand continued his studies at Jena University - he studied with Jakob Friedrich Fries , Heinrich Luden and Lorenz Oken . He became a member of the original fraternity founded in Jena in 1815 and its committee, and in the summer semester of 1818 also of the inner circle, the "closer association" and the board of directors. Shortly after his arrival in Jena, Sand went to Johann Wolfgang von Goethe with the request to be allowed to use the old ballroom , which was about to be demolished, for the fraternity members' gymnastics exercises, but without success. With Heinrich von Gagern , Heinrich Leo , August Daniel von Binzer , Uwe Jens Lornsen and other fraternity members, he founded a scientific association within the fraternity. Under the influence of Karl Follens , Sand developed into a supporter of the “Unconditional”, a wing of the fraternity that did not rule out political murder .

Sands found the leaflet Teutsche Jugend to the Teutsche crowd, which was distributed on the second Burschentag in Jena , on October 18, 1818, with an excerpt from Follen's Great Song , in which this fraternity and people called for political action for German unity and freedom and against the princes no response. Sand was considered a good fencer who is said to have struck 25 lengths , for which he always prepared with prayers. In the fall of 1818, Sand traveled to Berlin , where he visited Friedrich Ludwig Jahn and distributed his leaflet among the students.

The assassination

According to oral tradition, the murder weapon

Kotzebue's death (contemporary colored copper engraving)
Sands End on the Scaffold (Contemporary Colored Engraving)

Sand already considered the murder of Kotzebue on May 5, 1818 in his diary. He called him a “traitor to the country” and a “seducer of the youth”, understood him as an enemy of the fraternity and their struggle for Germany's unification and freedom. After the formal exit from the fraternity in February 1819, Sand traveled to Mannheim. He rested at the Wartburg, in whose guest book he wrote a quote from Theodor Körner , whose poems he always carried with him: “Push the spear into your loyal heart, | An alley for German freedom! "

On the morning of March 23, 1819, Sand sought out August von Kotzebue in his Mannheim apartment, square A 2, 5, using a Kurland alias ("Heinrichs from Mitau") . He was initially turned away and asked to come back that afternoon. Around five o'clock, Sand appeared a second time and was immediately let in. After only a few words had been exchanged, Sand drew the hidden dagger and thrust it into Kotzebue's chest several times with the words “Here, you traitor of the fatherland!”. As a result of these injuries, Kotzebue died after a few minutes. Kotzebue's four-year-old son, Alexander von Kotzebue , happened to witness the murder from the nursery, which upset Sand. Instead of fleeing, he stabbed a second dagger in his chest, rushed to the front door and handed over to a servant at the door the writing he had brought with him Death Strike to August von Kotzebue , to which he also confessed in his trial. Once on the street, he stabbed himself again and passed out.

His attempt at suicide failed, however, and he was resuscitated on the street and taken to the hospital, where he soon recovered enough to be questioned. The second stab in the back, however, had caused a deep injury to the lungs and subsequent infection prevented the wound from closing. For this reason, among other things, Sand enjoyed numerous privileges during his more than one year pre-trial detention in the Mannheim prison: he did not have to wear chains, had a spacious two-window cell, and the other prisoners were even ordered to hold onto their chains while walking around the courtyard so that their clinking would not disturb the calm Sick bothered. He was always extremely polite to the guards and did not cause any difficulties. He did not regret what he did. He saw Kotzebue as a traitor to the idea of ​​the moral, right and true, which deserved death. Consequently, even political murder appeared to him to be a moral and justified act. He put them on a par with historical murders of tyrants . That is why he decided not to apply for a pardon to the Grand Duke. The court court of Mannheim sentenced Sand to death by the sword on May 5, 1820 . He did not name any of his - presumed - helpers, in particular he covered the highly suspected follen.

Grave Sands in Mannheim

After his execution, Sand was buried in the Lutheran Cemetery in Mannheim. When this was to be abandoned around 1869, his bones were transferred to an honorary grave donated by the town council in the main cemetery .

effect

Sand had already become a symbol of unity and freedom when he was executed at the Heidelberger Tor in Mannheim, the crowd present "sobbed" and was "extremely moved" and brought flowers and weeping willows with them. Handkerchiefs were dipped in sand's blood, curls cut from his head, shavings broken off the scaffold (originals in the archive of the German fraternity). The executioner built a house out of this wood in his Heidelberg garden, where the secret fraternity preferred to meet. The remains had to be torn down after a short time, as relic hunters had hardly left anything behind. Sand's grave became a place of political pilgrimage, the leaves and flowers grown there were extremely popular. In the pre- March period , Sand received the quality of a political saint, rose to become an idealized champion and a figure of identification, especially in the radical democratic and national wing of the fraternity.

Together with the riots and the attempted strike by Göttingen students in the previous year, the horror at Sand's act sparked a broad debate among the conservative bourgeoisie and nobility about the decline in discipline and morality at German universities. Metternich used this mood to enforce the Karlsbad resolutions within the Federal Assembly , with which he aimed, among other things, with the results of the Aachen Congress in 1818, to suppress the liberal and national movement at the universities. This was followed by the dissolution of the fraternities, the establishment of the Mainz Central Investigation Commission and the first major persecution of demagogues, whereby the reference to sand often served to justify the criminalization of broad circles of the liberal bourgeoisie. The dismissal of the Berlin theology professor Wilhelm Martin Leberecht de Wette (1780–1849), who had written a letter of consolation to Sand's mother, can be seen as characteristic of this .

On the other hand, Metternich's instrumentalization of the crime for the purposes of the Restoration must not hide its scope, since it was one of the first politically and ideologically motivated assassinations in Germany. Within the German national movement and its environment, a large number of glorifying essays, poems, pamphlets, plays, novels and graphic representations have been dedicated to the "killer from love for the father" ( Karl Alexander von Müller ) up to the present day. Three more extensive sand novels of völkisch tendency (among others by Enrica v. Handel-Mazzetti ) appeared in the age of the Empire and the Weimar Republic; Karl Hans Strobl dedicated a play to him. But also by liberal-minded authors like Max Ring or Ernst Penzoldt , Sand's figure was repeatedly processed in literary terms; The sand novel by the writer Tilman Röhrig , published in 1993, should be placed in this tradition . In 2018, Karen Duve interweaves the political events of 1819 and 1820 in her Droste novel and also describes the execution of Sands.

Outside the German-speaking area, Sand was set up significant literary monuments by Alexander Pushkin (poem Der Dolch , 1821) and Alexandre Dumas (novella Karl Ludwig Sand in the Crimes célèbres collection , 1839–1841).
