Karl Bosek-Kienast

Karl Bosek-Kienast is the pseudonym Karl Bosek based on his mother's maiden name (born August 20, 1895 in Vienna ; † February 23, 1983 ibid). He was an Austrian writer and teacher.

Life

Karl Bosek-Kienast studied at the teacher training college in Vienna- Währing , a. a. with Josef Neumair . Neumair, a great admirer of Joseph Misson and Ottokar Kernstock , brought these two dialect poets closer to Bosek-Kienast. Bosek-Kienast was qualified to teach elementary and secondary schools , and after a short period of service in Putzig near Danzig , he spent the rest of his teaching at schools in Vienna. In addition to his work as a teacher, Bosek-Kienast devoted himself to the dissemination and preservation above all of the works of Kernstock and is therefore referred to as the “pioneer for the work of O. Kernstock and J. Missons”. He published at least three books in connection with Kernstock.

In particular, the organization and implementation of numerous so-called 'core stick evenings' was a main concern of Bosek-Kienast. He advertised them on thousands of advertising cards, which he had printed and distributed in postcard format at his own expense, and which were passed on from hand to hand. One of these cards from January 13, 1935 advertised a "slide show [...] compiled by Kernstock researcher Karl-Bosek-Kienast [...] and [...] presented by him in all German-Aryan circles [...]." Bosek-Kienast carried out evenings for many years after the end of the National Socialist dictatorship. B. 1959 on the occasion of the Christmas party of the Viennese association 'Mutterssprache' .

Bosek-Kienast was a member of the board of directors of the Viennese association “Mutterssprache” for several years. He also donated several hundred of his greeting cards to the association.

Karl Bosek-Kienast was buried on March 3, 1983 in group 7, row 10, number 30 of the Neustift cemetery.

National Socialism and Right-Wing Extremism

At the time of the National Socialist dictatorship, Bosek-Kienast's lectures were addressed to "all [...] German-Aryan circles [...]."

Bosek-Kienast's 'Volksdeutsches Werbewerk' issued a slogan card for the ' Anschluss' in 1938, the front of which adorns Kernstock's so-called 'swastika song', while on the back, in addition to an address field for mailing, Kernstock's life data can be found, as well as a large swastika and the The slogan “One people, one empire, one Führer!” As well as the stamp “On April 10th, your 'Ja' to the Führer”.

Bosek-Kienast's 'Volksdeutsches Werbewerk' supported a call by the FPÖ for a new 'Anschluss' in 1962 . Other supporters of this call were a. also the Austrian Gymnastics Federation , the Eckartbote and the nation of Europe .

Bosek-Kienast's publication Treudeutscher aber schlong kein Sängerherz was published in 1968 by the far-right Arndt-Verlag , whose publishing program focuses on historical revisionism. The volume was published as episode 3a in the series Offenhausener Baussteine , supported by the right-wing extremist association Dichterstein Offenhausen .

Thanks to Bosek-Kienast, there has been a 'Dr. Ottokar Kernstock Memorial '.
