Franz Schrönghamer-Heimdal , also Franz Schrönghamer or Franz Schrönghammer (born July 12, 1881 in Marbach near Eppenschlag , Lower Bavaria ; † September 3, 1962 in Passau ), was a local poet and painter.

Life

Franz Schrönghamer was born in Marbach in 1881 as the first child of the Wagner Michael Schrönghamer and his wife Maria, née Parzer. He attended the Humanist High School in Passau from 1893 and, after abandoning his theology studies, studied architecture at the Technical University of Munich from 1903 . He was the student editor of the third Munich " Musen-Almanach deutscher Hochschüler " (1904). After graduating in 1908, he became editor of the Fliegende Blätter for the next three years .

As early as 1900 he took on the artist name "Heimdal", since 1912 he was only active as a freelance writer. He wrote numerous popular poems and narratives that focused on the people of the Bavarian Forest. During the First World War he came out with "war essays " and anti-Semitic writings, which are withheld in later appraisals. Reinhard Haller about taking him against the charge of anti-Semitism in protection and claims to have the collection of his work by the Nazis opposed. In his 1919 book Judas, the World Enemy , Schrönghamer-Heimdal claimed that the Jews were the inventors of interest lending , "the unemployed income through machinations that the 'unbelievers' call usury and fraud". Long before the National Socialist racial laws, Schrönghamer spoke out in favor of a “recovery of the ethnic group”. The Jews should be excluded from politics, art and culture and he demanded a clearly visible identification mark that Jews should wear in public.

From 1933 to 1941 he was editor-in-chief of the Altöttinger Liebfrauenbote . Schrönghamer was drafted into the Wehrmacht in 1941 as a reserve officer . He published over 30 books with a total circulation of more than 100,000 copies.

After the end of the war, his writings Judas, the World Enemy and The Coming Empire were placed on the list of literature to be sorted out in the Soviet occupation zone . In the German Democratic Republic this list was followed by Vom Antichrist .

On September 9, 1919, he married Cäcila Parseval, the daughter of August von Parseval, in Dommelstadl near Neuburg am Inn .

The local poet received honorary citizenship of the city of Passau in 1951 , became an honorary citizen of the Eppenschlag community in the same year and was awarded the Federal Cross of Merit 1st Class in 1956 and the East Bavarian Culture Prize in 1959.
