Lisa Barthel-Winkler

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lisa Barthel-Winkler (born January 2, 1893 , † 1966 ) was a German writer.

Live and act

Lisa Barthel-Winkler was one of the first female authors of German-language crime novels . She understood herself to be in the narrative tradition of Karl May and wrote numerous novels, the plot of which was as in The Sleeping Hell. A mystical novel from India (1935) or Drums from Africa (1929) set in distant lands. Barthel-Winkler also worked as an editor for Karl-May-Verlag , for which she edited the 35-volume edition of the works of Hermann Ottomar Friedrich Goedsche, who called himself John Retcliffe as the author . In this role, Barthel-Winkler took great liberties and invented numerous additional episodes for the existing material, "in order to close gaps that have arisen from the fragmentary nature of the work as a whole or from breaking out individual parts."

With her husband Friedrich Barthel she published successful novels under the pseudonym FL Barwin, which consisted of the initials of both first names and the first syllables of their last names. Issues 103 to 126 of the Alaska-Jim series , whose hero is a Canadian policeman, emerged under the name Barwin from 1937 . From 1938 the two authors wrote the books 46 to 111 of the series Bob Hunter playing among Indians in the Wild West and from 1939 the books 1 to 81 of the series The Petrels . Many parallels to Karl May's motifs and writing techniques can be seen in her booklets.

Lisa Barthel-Winkler and Friedrich Barthel were among the founders of the Düsseldorf “Gesellschaft der Freunde Karl Mays eV”. They were involved in the creation of the text books for the Karl May Games at the Blauer See natural stage in Ratingen , based on preliminary work by Martin Raschke resorted to.

The novel Das doppelte Lottchen (1949) by Erich Kästner could be influenced by a book by Barthel-Winkler. "Kästner's conflict resolution is reminiscent of the 1936 title I get my father from Lisa Barthel-Winkler, where the author puts the reunification of the parents in the hands of 14-year-old Friedel after years of separation."
