Hans Giebisch (born September 23, 1888 in Brno , † August 24, 1966 in Vienna ) was an Austrian poet , high school professor and literary historian .

Life

During his studies, Giebisch became a member of the Alania Vienna fraternity . The fraternity song comes from him: "I like to sit by the tankard ..."

Because of his ancestors he was very closely connected to the Waldviertel and became a secondary school teacher in Waidhofen and in 1934 published his first volume of poetry "When the day will tend to decline". This was followed by poems that covered the theme of the Waldviertel, the landscape, farmers, castles and customs. Giebisch was a friend of Josef Weinheber and was venerated as a Waldviertel local poet during his lifetime.

Giebisch was a member of the NSDAP from 1933 to 1939. He was also a member of the Association of German Writers Austria BdSÖ, which worked energetically towards the 'Anschluss of Austria' to the German Reich in 1938 and joyfully welcomed the Anschluss in a contribution to the confessional book of Austrian poets published by the BdSÖ .

After the end of the Second World War , Giebisch worked as a publishing editor. At this time he began work on his "Little Austrian Literature Lexicon". This was followed by the three-volume edition “Weltliteratur” and, together with Gustav Gugitz , a “Bio-Bibliographisches Literaturlexikon Austria”. He also published extensively in the Eckartbote . In 1964 he was awarded the poet's stone shield from the Dichterstein Offenhausen association, which was banned in 1999 because of being re- employed by the National Socialists .

Hans Giebisch was buried on August 31, 1966 in the Vienna Central Cemetery.
