Georg Mannheimer
Georg Mannheimer (born May 10, 1887 in Vienna , † April 22, 1942 in Dachau concentration camp ) was an Austrian - Czechoslovak journalist and writer .
Life
Georg Mannheimer studied law and received his doctorate. He moved to Prague , which became the capital of Czechoslovakia in 1918 , and worked there as a journalist for various newspapers and magazines. In the daily newspaper Bohemia he was responsible for the political reporting from the parliament of the Czechoslovak Republic. As a court reporter, he became friends with the rival newspaper Prager Tagblatt writing Ernst Feigl . When the Nazi influence on this newspaper threatened to increase after the handover of power to the Nazis in the German Reich in 1933, Mannheimer founded the magazine Die Truth , in which he led a journalistic fight against fascism in Europe without any political consideration. In Germany his writings came on the list of harmful and undesirable literature . Mannheimer was arrested in September 1940 and deported to the Dachau concentration camp , where he died in 1942 of "exhaustion" as the cause of death, which bureaucratically describes the abuse.
