Anton Neuhäusler
Anton Neuhäusler (born February 20, 1919 in Munich ; † January 15, 1997 there ) was a German philosopher and dialect poet.
life and work
Anton Neuhäusler was the son of Anton Neuhäusler sen. and Anna Neuhäusler, née Sturm. Both were teachers, and the father was already active as a writer as an editor of a magazine and publisher of a youth magazine. His uncle was the Munich auxiliary bishop Johannes Neuhäusler . Anton Neuhäusler attended the primary school on Schwindstrasse and the Oberrealschule on Elisabethenplatz in Munich , and he graduated from high school in 1938. Then he joined the labor service, and in November 1938 he was drafted into military service and trained as a radio operator. During the Second World War he came to France as a non-commissioned officer on the Western Front. In 1942, while on leave from the front, he married his wife Maria Sailer from Hausham . His wife brought their two-year-old daughter Christa into the marriage, and they had two children, Rainer Neuhäusler (* 1944) and Monika Neuhäusler (* 1952). In April 1944 Neuhäusler was taken prisoner by the Americans, after the end of the war in 1945 he returned to his family in Hausham.
Studies and first literary work
Neuhäusler studied physics , psychology , philosophy and newspaper studies in Munich . He received his doctorate in 1950 under the Munich philosopher Aloys Wenzl on the subject of psyche and matter (1950). In his dissertation he tried to show what later became his main theme: that matter and psyche are only apparently alien to one another; the great denominator of the world, the origin of all things, is most likely an “incomprehensible and comprehensive consciousness”. In the early years of his studies he wrote newspaper articles and gave lectures at adult education centers. In 1952 he published his first volume of poetry, We Wonderful Wanderer, under the pseudonym Anton Hauser.
Scientific way
From 1950 to 1954 he worked as a research assistant. In 1954 he qualified as a professor on the subject of time and being (published in Munich 1955). 1954 to 1958 he was a private lecturer. In 1958 he became an associate professor at the Ludwig Maximilians University in Munich . From 1959 to 1969 he was a board member at the Pädagogische Hochschule München-Pasing and continued to be an associate professor at the University of Munich. In 1961 he became a full professor at the University of Education. In 1972 he was appointed full professor at the Ludwig Maximilians University, and he taught there until his retirement in 1981. He is the author of numerous publications. Since the sixties he was one of the editors of the papers for German and international politics .
Philosopher of peace and unity
Influenced by his experiences in the war, Neuhäusler was close to the peace movement. The main concerns of his scientific work can be found above all in his late work We are all one . The core statements: Human reason and the rules of strict thinking confirm the statement of the mystical core of the religions: All being comes from a common “primal being”. That is why the sentence: “We are all one.” This knowledge and feeling makes us spiritual brothers and sisters and is the basis for a cosmic religiosity without boundaries and limitations. It opens the door to an “immaterial” and “otherworldly” reality “beyond our realm of experience”. Neuhäusler comes to the conclusion: “The risk of believing in immortality is justified.” He pleads for a “mysticism of reason”: the knowledge of the re-connection to one's origin, “one's home in absolute being”, leads the People to the re-ligio of a free, critical, loving, lustful and lively human being.
The poet-philosopher Franz Ringseis
From 1958 Neuhäusler lived with his family in Munich-Schwabing . The pulsating life of the artistic scene fascinated and inspired the writer, outstanding singer and pianist. He spent his vacations in his former place of residence Hausham near Schliersee in the Bavarian mountains. It was there that he wrote his first poem in 1965 with the title A Wassafoi mechat i sei in Bavarian dialect .
He published this little poem under the pseudonym Franz Ringseis . It made him known all at once. From then on he wrote more dialect poems than Franz Ringseis , because he wanted to separate his two identities, university professor and dialect poet. In 1968 his first volume of poetry was published in Bavarian with the title of the same name, his "Wassafoi". Many more poems and volumes of poetry followed.
Franz Ringseis is still one of the most popular and most cited dialect poets in Bavaria. He died in January 1997 and is buried in the Munich North Cemetery.
The "Franz Ringseis Culture Prize" is named after him. Its first prize-winner is the film director Marcus H. Rosenmüller . In 2012, the cabaret artist, author and composer Tobias Öller was awarded this prize as the second in a row. Neuhäusler's literary legacy is preserved by his daughter Monika Neuhäusler alias Monika Ringseis.
