Ferdinand Chaloupek

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ferdinand Chaloupek (born April 21, 1900 in Fichtau near Neubistritz , Bohemia ; † April 6, 1988 in Krems an der Donau , Lower Austria ) was an Austrian teacher and politician ( SPÖ ).

Ferdinand Chaloupek attended elementary and public school in Fichtau, Teplice and Gmund , the German teacher training school in Budweis and worked in various places in Lower Austria as elementary and secondary school teachers. Chaloupek's commemorative volume "Teacher's life in the country", published in 1986, reports on this time. The staunch social democrat became principal school director in 1950, member of the Krems municipal council in 1955 and city councilor in 1957. He was a member of the Austrian National Council from June 9, 1959 to March 30, 1966. Chaloupek's special concern was the spelling reform in the sense of the moderate lower case. He left two volume memories. A youthful verse drama, "Die Knechte", about a strike on the Schönerer estates has not been published.
