from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hans Hagel (born January 15, 1888 in Nagykárolyfalva ( German  Karlsdorf ), Kingdom of Hungary , Austria-Hungary ; † April 20, 1942 in Timișoara , Kingdom of Romania ) was a Romanian-German dialect researcher , folklorist , editor-in-chief and publicist from the ethnic group of the Banat Swabians .

Life

Hagel was the son of rural parents, whose ancestors immigrated to the southern Banat around 1720 . During his school days, Hagel belonged to the "German Conscious Circle" around Josef Reinhold Heegn , Eduard Rittinger , Ludwig Kremling and others. After completing secondary school in Versec (German Werschetz ) in 1908, Hagel first turned to studying theology in Temesvár , which he gave up after two semesters in order to study German and Romance languages at the Catholic Péter Pázmány University in Budapest . As a student of Jakob Bleyer and Gideon Petz , Hagel was already engaged in dialect research here. As a student in Budapest, Hagel founded the “German-conscious” round table “Erzschwaben” with K. Mixture and A. Bader, which was classified by the Hungarian authorities as “anti-Hungarian agitators”. From Budapest he moved to Paris , where he continued his studies at the Sorbonne from 1911 to 1912 . Until the outbreak of World War I , he initially taught as a supplement at a grammar school in Kecskemét .

During the war, Hagel did administrative service in Déva (German Diemrich ) in Transylvania . As a first lieutenant in the reserve, he finished his military service in 1918 and returned to the Banat. There he worked from 1918 to 1931 as a teacher at the German commercial school in Timișoara. As a staff member and from 1929 editor-in-chief of the "Banater Deutsche Kulturhefte" (1927–1931 there), Hagel endeavored to research the Banat people and the German mixed mouths of the Banat . From 1931 to 1942 he taught at the Banatia (Prinz Eugen School) in Timișoara. In 1942 he died as a result of a traffic accident.

Remarks

  1. ↑ The “Südostdeutsche Tageszeitung” reported: “Hagel ran to a tram stop and wanted to catch the train, although it had already started moving. Since it was overcrowded, hail could only swing onto the stairs and hold on. But then the accident happened. Hagel bumped his head on the iron girder of a catenary mast. The top of the skull was shattered by the impact. In spite of this, he did not immediately lose consciousness and was immediately admitted to the nearby German Hospital, where he hardly passed away after ten minutes despite medical help. "
