Ernst Rudolf Neubauer

Ernst Rudolf Neubauer (born April 17, 1828 in Iglau , Moravia ; † May 4, 1890 in Radautz , Bukowina ) was an Austrian poet.

Life

Ernst Rudolf Neubauer attended grammar school in Iglau and studied law at the Karl Ferdinand University in Prague and philosophy at the University of Vienna . There he was seized by the revolution of 1848/1849 in the Austrian Empire . He published the radical newspaper Der Freie Wiener . As a member of the Academic Legion , he was wounded in street fighting in March 1848. During the siege of Vienna he served as a corps adjutant to commandant Wenzel Messenhauser , who was later shot when the government army conquered Vienna. Neubauer escaped this fate by a hair's breadth. He later described the experiences in his cycle of poems The Legionnaire .

After the revolution he turned to the subject. In 1850 he was sent to the outermost periphery of the Danube Monarchy, to the "educational penal colony" of Bukovina. As a high school teacher at the Imperial and Royal High School in Chernivtsi , he developed a lively educational activity, teaching literature and history for over 25 years . He promoted literarily gifted students such as Karl Emil Franzos and Mihai Eminescu .

In addition, Neubauer devoted himself to journalism . In 1862 he founded his own printing company and published the first German-language newspaper, the state and official newspaper Bukowina , which he edited until 1869. Their supplement Sunday newspaper of Bukovina became a literary forum for young Bukovinian authors. Neubauer's employees included Ludwig Adolf Staufe-Simiginowicz , Moritz Amster and Jurij Fedkowytsch . With money not on good terms, Neubauer had to sell the print shop and his house after seven years in order to be able to pay off the debts.

In 1872 he was appointed director of the high school in Radautz. Honored as a school councilor (title) , he retired in 1884. He devoted himself entirely to his poetic activity. After his death he was buried in the city cemetery of Radautz. The community set up an honorary gravestone.

“The grandiose poetic work Die Ideonen has unfortunately hardly been explored in literary studies until today. Neubauer's dramatic works, which were performed in Chernivtsi at the time, have also been forgotten today: "The girl from Kaliczanka" (1865), "The trade for the soul" and others. "

- Peter Rychlo and Oleg Liubkivskyj

Neubauer was also an excellent impromptu poet who used the most difficult forms in his improvisations , for example ancient stanzas, stanzas , sonnets and terzins . In many cities in the German-speaking area (Dresden, Vienna, Leipzig) he performed with great success.
