The Eisbrecher (spelling: der Eisbrecher ) is a magazine of the German youth movement . The first issue appeared in October 1932. After the Second World War , the magazine was reopened in 1960; to this day the magazine appears up to three times a year in the publishing house of the youth movement .

In the 1930s, Der Eisbrecher conveyed the style and content of dj.1.11 to a larger audience from other leagues and thus had a formative effect on the final phase of the Bündische Jugend .

In the post-war period, there were several attempts to build on the young people's publications from the pre-war period. One of these attempts in 1960 was the publication Der Eisbrecher , which is still published today and which - with its sister magazine Keyword (formerly Team ) and the common supplement Buschtrommel - is considered the most important forum for the groups and associations shaped by the youth movement.

Establishment and prohibition

In July 1930, Eberhard Koebel published the magazine Das Lagerfeuer , which was based on the Bauhaus movement and the associated lower case . She had to be stopped because of financial problems.

In the Günther Wolff publishing house in Plauen , he then founded the “Monthly of the Young” with the title The Icebreaker . The first edition appeared in October 1932, the official editors were alternately Günther Wolff and Jochen Hene. Eberhard Koebel himself could not act as editor, as he had recently publicly confessed to communism . From the beginning of 1933 to the beginning of 1934, Eberhard Koebel was the editor; this was ended when he was arrested. After his emigration he published articles under a pseudonym. In June 1935 the icebreaker was banned by the Gestapo in connection with the persecution of the Bündische Jugend , Günther Wolff, Jochen Hene and others were arrested.

Appeared after 1960

Since 1951 the magazine Das Kohtenkreuz has appeared in the Südmarkverlag in Heidenheim an der Brenz as a publication of the Deutsche Freischar . Over time, it gained numerous readers from other leagues and associations and was therefore renamed Der Eisbrecher in 1960 in order to document its growing importance as the most important newspaper in the youth scene.

With the renaming, numerous prominent authors could be won for the magazine, among them Alexej Stachowitsch , Werner Helwig , Walter Scherf , Hein and Oss Kröher , Max Himmelheber , Erik Martin , Lothar Sauer and Walter Sauer .

present

The icebreaker is published three times a year by the youth movement publishing house. The editors, like all employees at this publishing house, work on a voluntary basis and are even active in the groups and federations of the current Bündische Jugend. The bush drum with the latest news from the Bündische Jugend and the scout movement appears as a supplement .
