List of known people related to the Free School Community of Wickersdorf

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This list contains well-known people from the former educational reform school free school community Wickersdorf (1906-1991) near Saalfeld in the Thuringian Forest . On the basis of the characters who acted very differently and their life paths, it allows a differentiated historical classification and assignment of this school pilot project, which in the first decades was distinguished by its musical focus, but especially by the " Performing Game " initiated by Martin Luserke most other school projects differed. For many contemporaries interested in art and education in Germany, Austria and other countries, the FSG Wickersdorf became a “free” private boarding school project worth discussing - cross-party.

Free School Community of Wickersdorf near Saalfeld in the Thuringian Forest that were taken over from a domain that had been fallow before 1906 - two village ponds in front right, which were later connected for a swimming pond used all year round

The extreme polarization that persisted over the first decades, strong fluctuation within the student body and the teaching staff as well as fierce disputes with the school authorities, parents and courts as well as media attention ensured in particular Gustav Wyneken , whose ideas of an "educational eros" also other teachers to sexual Encouraged contacts with young pupils.

During the time of National Socialism , a “free” boarding school was over very quickly; From March 27, 1933, it was only allowed to call itself the Wickersdorf school community , a compromise that, for contradicting reasons, did not please the actors at the school or the Nazi authorities. As of February 7, 1943, the school community was renamed by the National Socialists in Deutsche Heimschule Wickersdorf .

In the Soviet occupation zone and later in the GDR , the school, which was temporarily allowed to call itself again the Free School Community of Wickersdorf , was successively “swapped” the mostly very well-off clientele for a proletarian student body in line with the socialist state doctrine. From 1964 it became a specialized secondary school ( Extended Oberschule ), which was supposed to prepare students for studying in order to train Russian teachers. Up until the 1980s, only fragments of the earlier reform-pedagogical approaches were found.

From 1918 he was married to the teacher Helene Pahl (1893–1987), who had been teaching English there since 1915, and from 1925 also at the school by the sea . From October 1924 Aeschlimann was a member of the board of trustees of the Schule am Meer foundation . In 1925, the teacher couple, together with Fritz Hafner , Martin Luserke and Paul Reiner, belonged to the group of secessionists who left the FSG Wickersdorf in order to found the school by the sea in Loog on the East Frisian North Sea island of Juist . From 1917 to 1924 managing director of the Free School Community , Aeschlimann was also the administrator and “farmer” of the school by the sea . He is said to have felt particularly happy there and to have made particular efforts to attend to the more difficult students.
  • Hans Alfken from Bremen grew up with the youth movement ( Bündische Jugend ) and was involved as a group leader. He was politicized by the First World War , in which he participated from 1917, and the November Revolution , but also by encounters such as with Heinrich Vogeler or the Barkenhoff municipality in the artist village of Worpswede . In retrospect he summed up: "The Romantics became political". In 1920 he appeared as a representative of the Free German youth at the Reichsschulkonferenz and demanded the right of young people to share responsibility and to help shape the future education system. After studying English, German and philosophy at the Friedrich Schiller University in Jena, the University of Greifswald and the Philipps University in Marburg, he taught from 1924 to 1925 as an assistant teacher for German, English and philosophy in the Free School Community and was influenced there by Martin Luserke's concept of a directly experience-oriented didactics . In 1926 he followed an offer made by Fritz Karsen during the Reichsschulkonferenz in 1920 to attend the Kaiser-Friedrich-Realgymnasium in Berlin-Neukölln , which was renamed the Karl Marx School in 1929 and is considered the forerunner of today's comprehensive schools . Alfken saw their new naming as counterproductive, as polarizing. There he directed the courses for high school graduates. In 1927 he joined the KPD , worked on a newspaper project and visited the Soviet Union , whose school system he judged positively. In 1933 he was dismissed from school by the National Socialists , arrested several times for resistance activity and imprisoned for fifteen months. Immediately afterwards he was drafted into the Wehrmacht "on probation" and participated in the Second World War as a soldier from 1940 to 1945 . In the summer of 1945 he advocated cooperation between communists and social democrats, then broke with the KPD and in 1946 became a member of the SPD through the mediation of Adolf Grimme . As a result, he became the latter's personal advisor in the Lower Saxony Ministry of Culture . Until 1965 he worked there as head of the adult education, library, sport and (from 1949) youth care departments.

In 1944 he published the Harvard Dictionary of Music , the first scientifically and historically conceived US-American music lexicon. It immediately became a bestseller and became a standard work for students of several generations. In the 1940s, Apel became one of the most famous and respected musicologists in the United States, even though he did not have a permanent position. Together with Archibald Thompson Davison , he published the two-volume Historical Anthology of Music in 1949/50 , a musical history in examples. The School of Music at Indiana University in Bloomington , Indiana , offered him a professorship in 1950, which he held until 1963, when he retired there in the same year .

After the cession of power to the National Socialists , the couple left Germany and founded the Ecole d'Humanité in Hasliberg in the Swiss canton of Bern in 1934 , which still exists today. Geheeb had studied theology at the Friedrich Wilhelms University in Berlin and at the Friedrich Schiller University in Jena, but also devoted himself to medicine, psychology, education and linguistics. In 1891 he was noticed by criticism of the treatment of women. He described it as sad and dangerous, “[...] when the German sons of the Muses call woman the most wretched and wretched of all creatures, call the female sex the merely passive one, and more and more pay homage to the view that woman has no higher purpose than that it serves the man to satisfy his sensual desires and as a machine for human reproduction ”.

The Odenwaldschule was considered Geheeb's actual life's work, one of the most uncompromising free schools in Germany. Otto Friedrich Bollnow characterized Geheeb as a leader figure who, in contrast to other educators of the time, was not actively carried away. Instead, he developed an atmosphere of trust and awe for the uniqueness of each individual, in which children and young people could develop according to their individuality, rather quietly and almost imperceptibly.

Jaap Kool , 1933
  • The Amsterdam- born Jacob "Jaap" Hendrik Willem Kool grew up mainly in the East Frisian Emden . He enjoyed a permissive upbringing; the mother came from a naturist family. In 1905 he rebelled against the military drill at the Emden Wilhelmsgymnasium , which he attended. After a short boarding school at the German Landerziehungsheim (DLEH) in Haubinda, his parents made it possible for him to move to the newly opened Free School Community in Wickersdorf, where he was one of their first students and stayed from 1906 to 1909. There he became close friends with Alexander "Sascha" Gerhardi (1889–1967). Both felt closely connected with Wyneken and Wickersdorf throughout their lives. From 1911 he studied chemistry and musicology at the University of Zurich . In the Zurich nightlife, where he tended to debauchery with his friend Gerhardi, he contracted a sexually transmitted disease. He had to break off his studies there after the preliminary diploma examination . The beginning of the war and the lack of teachers caused by the large number of euphoric volunteers offered him the opportunity to work as an assistant teacher for music education in his former country school in Wickersdorf from October 1915 . At the end of the war he moved to Berlin to study music at the Stern Conservatory . As jazz - saxophonist headed it an occurring under his name orchestra in the capital. His unconventional compositions with borrowings from African rhythms made him well-known in the Berlin music scene. In the contemporary tabloid press he was described as the “bird of paradise of the Berlin scene”. There he worked for example with Anita Berber , Ellen Cleve-Petz (1890–1977), Karl Gustav Vollmoeller , Lena Amsel , Jutta Klamt and Leni Riefenstahl . With Riefenstahl, Kool went on a study trip to New York City in 1924 . The founder of the Vox record and speaking machine stock corporation , August Stauch , brought him to the Berlin Vox-Haus in 1923 as program director and artistic director , where he stayed until 1925. The stock market crash on October 24, 1929 marked a hard turning point. The free school community in Wickersdorf has now once again become the rescue center for Kools, who taught chemistry and music there from 1929 to 1940 and was headmaster from 1930 to 1933. From 1930 to 1932 the former FSG pupil Vlasta “Asta” Libusche Josephine Hájek (* 1909 in Breslau) from Gustav Wyneken's comradeship worked there as an auxiliary teacher for French, with whom Jaap Kool entered a liaison. Forced to resign by the National Socialists in 1933 , he remained managing director of Internat GmbH. For the cabaret program of the emigrated UFA actor Kurt Gerron at the Hollandsche Schouwburg in Amsterdam, Kool composed a large number of pieces of music, as well as film music for Gerron's directorial work. Then the Wickersdorf school community , where he had meanwhile been elected to the supervisory board, urgently called him back to the Thuringian Forest . Kool composed a musical pantomime for the German National Theater Weimar . This gave him the contract for an opera, financed by the cultural fund of the Nazi leisure organization Kraft durch Freude (KdF). When the German Wehrmacht occupied the Netherlands in 1940, Kool was forced to withdraw from the board of directors of the school community and moved to the Netherlands. The Nederlandsch-Duitsche Kultuurgemeenschap , active from 1941 to 1944, offered him the management of a new opera house in 1942. In this role he commissioned Leo Justinus Kauffmann to compose an opera. From autumn 1945 back in Wickersdorf, he tried to get the boarding school back on track and tried to win Gustav Wyneken again as headmaster despite his repeated abuse. In the post-war period, Kool had to make ends meet as a bar musician, worked in the timber trade and was able to open a small music shop in The Hague in the early 1950s . In 1945/46 his son Stefan Kool (* 1933) was a student of the FSG , daughter Sibylle Kool (* 1938) attended the village school.
  • Walter Kühne (1875–1956), a painter, draftsman and graphic artist from Jamlitz in Niederlausitz, taught as a drawing teacher in the Free School Community in 1915/16 . He later placed the daughter of the Berlin painter Franz Lippisch , Bianca Commichau-Lippisch , as a teacher at the FSG and financed his own son Walter Georg Kühne 's boarding school stay, and from Easter 1925 also a visit to the school by the sea on Juist .
Ernst Kurth , around 1928
  • After his doctorate in 1908, the Austrian Ernst Kurth taught music in the Free School Community from February 1911 to April 1912 and from April 1914 onwards . Kurth founded the choir work of the FSG , the large choir of children, young people and adults as well as a smaller choir with musically gifted people in the sense of a Collegium musicum , which developed a completely different repertoire than the large FSG choir. For example, Kurth held courses on music theory or stylistics at the FSG , organized up to three music evenings per week and gave private piano and cello lessons . He completed his habilitation in Bern, was appointed associate professor in 1920 and full professor in 1927. As a result, he worked mainly in Switzerland. With his works he exerted a great influence on musicology . From 1925 he worked as a sponsor of the school by the sea in Juist and was one of their confidants.
Wilhelm Lehmann , around 1905
  • Wilhelm Lehmann was a Venezuela-born educator and writer with a doctorate . From 1912 to 1920 he was a teacher in the Free School Community , where he met Martin Luserke , whom he saw as headmaster until the start of the war in 1914. In the FSG he was the leader of the "Lehmänner" comradeship named after him. He made it possible for his son Berthold (1908–1996) to visit the FSG from 1916 to 1920 . Just like Luserke, Lehmann also got into pedagogical conflict with school founder Gustav Wyneken and followed Bernhard Hell together with his colleague Hans-Windekilde Jannasch to the Landschulheim am Solling . Lehmann took part in World War I from 1917 , but deliberately deserted into British captivity in September 1918. This is the theme of Lehmann's 1925 to 1927 novel Der Überläufer , which, however, could not be published until 1962. Alfred Döblin , father of a student at the Schule am Meer , awarded Lehmann the Kleist Prize in 1923 , at the same time as Robert Musil . Lehmann joined the NSDAP on May 1, 1933 out of concern for his profession and his official status - “against his innermost convictions”.
  • The Rome- born Bianca Mathilde Helene Agnes Lippisch , called "Bice", daughter of the Berlin painter Franz August Gotthelf Lippisch and admirer of the poet Stefan George , taught drawing in the Free School Community from 1917 to 1919 during her training in Weimar . She headed one of the comradeships there and got involved in Luserke's “movement game” ( performing game ), for which she designed costumes and sets, but also wrote scripts and staged plays. During her teaching career in Wickersdorf for example, portrayed one from Mongolia originating FSG -Schülerin in their traditional clothing, a painting that has been preserved. From 1920 she was mainly involved as a portrait painter in the Spreewalddorf Jamlitz in the project of the arts and crafts workshops and from May 21, 1921 married the estate inspector Alfred Carl Rudolph Commichau (1894–1944). During the Second World War, her husband was the commander of the 1st Battalion of the 691th Infantry Regiment belonging to the 339th Infantry Division of the Wehrmacht . In October 1941, he gave the order to shoot Belarusian Jewish civilians near Krucha near Smolensk . A number of the Commichau-Lippisch paintings stored in Lübben were destroyed when the city was destroyed. After the end of the war in 1945 she moved with her three daughters to the house of her father, who died in 1941, in Jamlitz, where she had to support the family with her paintings - including landscapes. In 1964 she moved to Schleswig-Holstein to live with her youngest daughter.

In 1908 he married the housekeeper of the FSG , Annemarie Gerwien (1878–1926), who has since been called "Frau Lu". At Easter 1925 he moved from the Free School Community to the school he had founded by the sea in the Loog in Juist . After the school closed at the beginning of the National Socialism , he turned away from the island. He realized a childhood dream and drove in his Blazer Krake with his initially fifteen-year-old son Dieter (1918-2005) for about four years the coastal waters of the North and Baltic Seas , wrote imaginative books and in 1935 won the literary prize of the Reich capital Berlin for his most successful novel, Hasko excellent.

In 1914, the temporary Wandervogel guide and grammar school director criticized Wyneken in a publication. This has constructed a "radical dogmatism"; with this he offered “the same youth that he wanted to raise freely and independently”: “That Wyneken did not notice this monstrous contradiction himself! But lust for power probably made him blind. "
  • Rudolf Pannwitz taught in 1908 as an assistant teacher for the subject German in the Free School Community before he worked as a writer and philosopher. Shortly before and after his stay in Wickersdorf, he published two works on elementary school teachers and the German language and culture.

According to Suhrkamp's stipulations, Peltzer was supposed to recruit talented athletes for the FSG on a commission basis. From May 1, 1933, Peltzer was a member of the NSDAP and the SS . Peltzer was responsible for pedosexual attacks on children and young people such as 13-year-old Arnold Ernst Fanck and 15-year-old Algirdas Savickis within and outside the FSG, and also on 12-year-old schoolchildren at the Teutonia sports club in Berlin. In the case of Arnold Fanck junior and the 12-year-olds in Berlin, Peltzer was sentenced to prison for the first time in 1935 for sexual abuse of children and fornication with addicts ( Section 174 No. 1 RStGB in two cases, Section 175 RStGB in one case, Section 176 No. 3 RStGB in two cases), whereby the Berlin Regional Court , according to the reasoning for the judgment, repeatedly exercised leniency in favor of Peltzer. He was in close contact with the pedophile teacher team within the FSG around Gustav Wyneken and Fernand Petitpierre , even after 1945. According to the memories of the FSG student Friedrich Schoenfelder , Peltzer was very fixated on the athletic disciplines, so other sports were included in his lessons tended to fall short.
  • Fernand Petitpierre from Switzerland taught from 1915 to 1922 and from 1926 to 1931 in the Free School Community , where he taught French.

In Wickersdorf he developed so-called “ mystery games ”, inspired by Asian dance festivals , which were accompanied by suggestive music composed by Schertel without key . He had his boys embroidered, read to them from the Gilgamesh epic and taught them ancient Egyptian art. However, his educational efforts met with reservations: the fact that he made his students understand the "conviction of the human-forming and culture-promoting power of male-male love" led to the end of his work in Wickersdorf. His colleague Hedda Gagliardi-Korsch , who took over some of his students after he left, complained that Schertel had caused “real damage” among the students in some areas. The boarding school retained the preoccupation with works by Stefan George , initiated by Schertel and Paul Reiner .
  • The teacher Ernst Schubert (1879) holds the record among all teaching staff at the FSG when it comes to his long-term presence in this boarding school. From 1907 to 1936 he taught his students German, history, music and school theater there. But then he was dismissed at the instigation of the NS headmaster Paul Döring (1903-1998) because he was an “upright opponent” of the National Socialists due to his “liberalist outlook” . His wife Gertrud (1880) worked for the FSG almost at the same time, from 1908 to 1936, as a carer for the girls. Ernst Schubert remained connected to the FSG even after his politically motivated dismissal. He last lived in Hanover with his wife.
  • Peter Suhrkamp , who comes from Kirchhatten , came to the Free School Community through contact with the youth movement , where he taught from 1925 to 1929 and served as educational director from 1926 to 1929. He brought the world-famous athlete Otto Peltzer to the FSG, who was supposed to acquire talented students in order to improve the sporting reputation of the boarding school. He is said to have been respected and popular both in the college and among his students. On April 1, 1929, however, he gave up his teaching profession. In 1950 he founded Suhrkamp Verlag in Frankfurt am Main .
  • Bernhard Uffrecht , who comes from the province of Saxony , taught in the free school community from 1911 to 1919 before he founded the free school and work community in 1919 after a falling out with Gustav Wyneken . As headmaster of the municipal high school and state advanced school in Haldensleben, he was asked in 1945 by the Thuringian State Office for National Education to take over the management of the FSG , as he was not a member of the NSDAP .

From 1921 to 1926 he taught German, history and mathematics at the FSG . He was also active as an author of expressionist poetry and essays with an anti-militarist tendency - a circumstance which, in addition to his homosexuality, made life increasingly difficult for him during the Nazi era . In 1942 he was forced to join the NSDAP and was therefore dismissed by the US administration after the end of the war, also because he was an air defense instructor. He died impoverished.
  • Erna Wehnert (1900–1985), known as "Erne", initially assistant teacher for English and Latin in the Free School Community from 1924 , looked after the four children of Annemarie and Martin Luserke, who were born in Wickersdorf . In 1926 she switched to the school by the sea in Juist as a full-time teacher . Together with Dieter and Martin Luserke as well as Beate Köstlin (later known internationally as Beate Uhse) Erne Wehnert went on Luserke's poet ship Krake . After the end of the war, the Fischland on the Mecklenburg or West Pomerania Baltic coast reminded them of Juist. From October 1946 she headed the two schools in Althagen (Mecklenburg) and Ahrenshoop (Western Pomerania) and rebuilt the school there with commitment. She adapted Luserkes movement game ( performing game ) there with the Fischländer Spielschar that she founded .
Gustav Wyneken , around 1925
  • Gustav Wyneken , who comes from Stade , was the headmaster of the Free School Community from 1906 to 1910 and 1919/20 . He was dismissed from the Ministry of Culture in 1910. After the November Revolution of 1919, Martin Luserke probably called him back to the school management. In 1920 Wyneken found himself exposed to allegations of sexual abuse of schoolchildren and had to quit work in October of the same year. As a result, he was sentenced to one year in prison on August 30, 1921 for indecent acts (§§ 176, 176a RStGB ) and abuse of his authority as headmaster during the so-called "Eros Trial". The revision negotiation confirmed the sentence and attracted great attention through the self-portrayal of the "expert" Hans Blüher . In Wyneken's Eros , published in 1921 after his dismissal for sexual abuse, he tried to find a theoretical foundation and justification for pedophile practices and had a printed “solidarity sheet” attached by the teachers he liked. In his writing he stated, among other things: “But then you will also feel that the body has a completely different validity here than in the world, that it is directly involved in the life (in the spiritual life) of this community [ Free School Community Wickersdorf ] is involved. [...] The body is the development of the lonely, self-contained soul in space [...], it is blossoming in color and sound, in bonds and vibrations, it is grace, devotion, love, beauty, happiness. [...] we know that the boys' love bond with its [sic!] Leader is the most beautiful thing that can be granted to young people. "In this context, it is noteworthy that the former headmaster of the Odenwald School , Gerold Becker , who was accused of sexual abuse for decades , maintained close contact with Wyneken. Both are still wrongly considered icons of German reform pedagogy in some circles .

  • From 1919 to 1921 Friedrich Georg Houtermans , who was born in Sopot near Gdansk in 1903 , called "Fritz" or "Fissel", attended the Wickersdorf boarding school. He is considered to be one of the most original and imaginative personalities in physicists who worked in German-speaking countries in the first half of the 20th century. His father was living in Sopot doctorate lawyer and banker Otto Houtermans (1878-1936). Fritz came from Vienna, where he in his single mother, who since about 1906/07 doctorate was raised chemist Elsa Houtermans (1878-1942), born Wanek. He had attended the Academic Gymnasium there, but had been expelled from it after reciting the Communist Manifesto in its foyer on May 1, 1919 . For his last two years at school, the primary school student came to the FSG in Wickersdorf and passed his matriculation examination in 1921 as an external student at the Oberrealschule in Sonneberg, Thuringia-Franconia . Fritz studied physics at the Georg August University in Göttingen from 1922 to 1928 and received his doctorate with a dissertation “On the fluorescence of bands in mercury vapor ” with James Franck . He then worked as an assistant to the physicist and Nobel Prize winner Gustav Hertz at the Technical University of Berlin . In 1930 he married the physical chemist and later professor Charlotte (1899–1993), née Riefenstahl, who was born in Bielefeld, and his fellow student. As a member of the KPD he had to emigrate to the National Socialists after the transfer of power and went to England via Copenhagen, where he worked briefly in an industrial laboratory of EMI (Electrical and Musical Instruments Ltd., known for the His Master's Voice brand ). However, this work was not his job. However, his communist orientation was not welcomed there either, so that in 1934 he moved to the Soviet Union . There he worked as a laboratory manager at the Ukrainian Physics and Technology Institute in Kharkov . There he dealt with the physics of thermal neutrons . He was arrested and tortured on December 1, 1937, during the Stalinist purges . In 1940 he was deported to the German Reich and imprisoned there by the Gestapo . The Nobel Prize winner Max von Laue reached his release and gave him a job at the private research institute of Manfred von Ardenne in Berlin light field .

At Ardennes Institute he worked on the physics of nuclear fission . He divorced his wife Charlotte, who lived in the USA, on the basis of applicable Nazi marriage law, without her being informed in the USA. This earned him the charge of bigamy in the post-war period . In 1944 he married Ilse Bartz, who worked as a chemist at the Ardennes Institute. From 1944 to 1945 he worked at the Physikalisch-Technische Reichsanstalt in Berlin. After the end of the war he worked as an adjunct professor at the Georg August University in Göttingen until 1952 . In 1950 he and a fellow sufferer published a book about his experiences in Soviet prisons.

In October 1958, Klink became an employee of the new Military History Research Office (MGFA) in Freiburg im Breisgau . Klink's membership in the Waffen SS was known there, but his membership in the HIAG and his ongoing friendship with Joachim Peiper were known to only a few. Klink kept in touch with the veterans of the Waffen SS , alongside Peiper with Walter Harzer , who coordinated the formulation of the history of SS divisions for HIAG. Klink cooperated with Peiper and Harzer regarding a representation of the Battle of Kharkov. Klink obtained documents from the Federal Archives for HIAG and helped with information and presentations. He cleaned up SS veterans' personal records and eliminated incriminating confessions. Klink used his position as a historian in the MGFA for the cause of the Waffen-SS by deliberately influencing journalists. In 1976 he advised the director Jost von Morr on a documentary about the Malmedy massacre , which was produced by Chronos Film for WDR . The finished film was based on the veteran's perspective, according to which the SS had been held responsible for an unresolved incident during the Ardennes offensive . Klink also provided the material for a multi-page report in the Quick magazine . Within the Military History Research Office , conflicts arose between Klink and other historians as soon as the actual role of the Waffen-SS and its historical assessment came up. The historian Jens Westemeier assesses Klink as one of “the most important lobbyists for the in-house falsification of history” at HIAG.

  • The " wandering bird " Erich Krems from Berlin-Schöneberg was one of Gustav Wyneken's favorite pupils , and Wyneken vied for his friendship. Erich belonged with Walter Benjamin , Hans Blüher , Ernst Joëll , Hans and Walter Koch, Hans Kollwitz , Alfred Kurella and Alexander Rustow to the so-called Westend Circle , which brought together the left wing of the bourgeois youth movement . He was in the Free School Community until the beginning of the summer vacation in 1914 and volunteered as a war volunteer . Almost two years later he fell on March 10, 1916 in the Battle of Verdun as a lieutenant in the reserve of Reserve Infantry Regiment No. 23, which was under the 12th Infantry Division . He was very close friends with Peter Kollwitz (1896–1914), the youngest son of the sculptor Käthe Kollwitz , who was very impressed by Erich. He, Hans Koch , Peter Kollwitz and Richard Noll had been hiking together in Norway during the summer vacation of 1914, where they had jointly made a plan to go to war and immediately canceled their vacation. Erich passed on the news of Peter Kollwitz's death on the night of October 22nd to 23rd, 1914 by field post to his revered teacher Gustav Wyneken. Erich wrote: “Don't believe any of the usual sayings about the“ excellent spirit in our army ”. There is nothing the soldier outside wants more than peace ... The feeling is general: What a senseless, terrible thing war is! Like nobody wanted him, not the Belgian who is aiming at me, not the Englishman who I am aiming at ”. Käthe Kollwitz, who took an intense interest in her son's friends, referred to Erich Krems in her diary on October 11, 1916: “Peter, Erich, Richard, everyone based their lives on the idea of ​​love for the country. The English, Russian, and French youths did the same. [...] So has the youth in all these countries been betrayed? Has their dedication been used to bring about the war? [...] Was it a mass madness? And when and how will be the awakening. "In 1920 she made as part of its Woodcut episode war the work" The volunteers ", like in a trance follow the drumming death. Erich is shown in it. A video about him is available on the Deutsche Welle website and on YouTube .

From there she moved to Dresden, where she transferred the precious library of the Saxon royal family to Moritzburg Castle in order to build a library there. She completed studies in Paris and Rome, worked in large private libraries, but as a woman did not get permanent employment in academic libraries. So in 1933 she tried to get a third professional qualification. In the West Pomeranian Stettin she was trained by Erwin Ackerknecht in the public library system. A permanent position in the public service was now subject to National Socialist guidelines. In August 1933 she wrote to Leipzig from Stettin: “I can't stand it much longer in Germany if things don't change. Please don't laugh when I tell you about my last job: there was a system for a new catalog of national-socialist literature to be worked out for the Szczecin City Library. I, of all people! I flatly refused to give a lecture on the subject of women in the National Socialist state. The echo is exhausted in 3 words: She's thrown out ... “For the following years she worked briefly in Berlin, London, Halle an der Saale and Munich. In 1939 she called Prince Ernst Heinrich of Saxony to the Dante library of his grandfather, the Dante translator King John of Saxony . There she was allowed to work freely and scientifically and created the catalog of this library published in 1942. However, all of the bibliographical treasures carefully kept by her were completely destroyed during the air raids on Dresden in the night of February 13th to 14th, 1945 , even though they were moved from Moritzburg Castle to Dresden on the west bank of the Elbe in the basement of the local administration had outsourced. "The loss of my parents' house in Leipzig did not hurt me as much as the downfall of all these treasures that I had cherished and cared for and with which I grew over the fee." In 1945 she applied to the Leipzig City Library and from November 1945 initially acted as a its acting director and from September 1946 as its director, where she rebuilt the book inventory in Barthels Hof am Markt , which was also burned there in 1943 . From 1950 the SED -Apparat (investigation and enforcement office of the city administration of Leipzig) investigated against them. It was criticized that its personnel composition did not correspond to the leading political forces in the GDR and that the city library could be regarded as an “unpolitical island” with an influence on the reading public. As a result, excuses were sought and found in the book inventory, in order to terminate them in 1951. She did not find a new job for several years. In 1954 she was commissioned by the Saxon Academy of Sciences to compile the bibliography on the history of the city of Leipzig .

In his autobiography, published in 1990, Hans-Heinz recalled the " Eros Paidekos , to whom much homage was paid in this school". He mentioned the sexual assault on students by a number of teachers such as Joachim Georg Boeckh and Otto Peltzer , as well as the relationship between Gustav Wyneken and the student Herbert Könitzer, and stated: “Another problem arose after the departure of Peter Suhrkamp [in April 1929] in the resurgence of homosexuality , which went so far that the normally inclined youngsters saw themselves pushed into an outsider role. Anyone striving for top performance and appropriate support could not avoid the homophile tendencies of many educators ". He regarded the educational concept in Wickersdorf as harmful: “But we also realized that the Wickersdorf educational methods, as they were practiced at the time, were causing great damage. The primacy of absolute youthful freedom, and thus the renunciation of punishment and discipline, resulted in many people becoming mentally neglected. Wickersdorf failed to teach learning. The intake of the diverse spiritual nourishment was indiscriminate; which is why most of them were content with superficial knowledge and still believed they could have a say everywhere. The excessive enthusiasm of the teachers about a few flashes of genius, as they are produced by almost everyone at this age, shifted the normal scales of values ​​and made some people think that they were called to extraordinary things ”.

Kalistros Thielicke , presumably 1920s
  • The Berlin Kalistros Max Thielicke (1905-1944), also: Thielecke, called "Cali" and "Calis Sujamani" (= "Calis, the oppressed"), was a student of the Free School Community from 1919 to 1923 . His first name Kalistros can be traced back to a cigarette brand of the same name, which was produced at the time by his father, the Berlin entrepreneur Otto Krüger, in the tobacco goods factory Clistros . The boy did not like this first name and tried to change it as he got older. At times he thought up fantasy names and used them for himself. Kalistros, born out of wedlock, did not find out the identity of his father and his two half-siblings until the age of 18, although he had already met his mother's family earlier as acquaintances and temporarily lived in her house in Michendorf near Potsdam. His mother Camilla, described as possessive, contentious, tyrannical and nymphomaniac, came from Saxony and worked as a self-employed tailor. This kept her son completely isolated in places during his early childhood in a cramped basement apartment in Berlin-Halensee near Kurfürstendamm . In order not to be able to come into contact with his peers, he was initially told not to attend school at their instigation and was therefore taught at home by a private teacher. Because of a new lover of his mother who moved in, the nine-year-old Kalistros had to leave the apartment and was therefore quartered with his biological father's family without knowing about him. At the same time, from 1915 to 1917, he went to the Goethe School , a reform high school in Berlin-Wilmersdorf . The boy developed a special soft spot for languages ​​and cultures. He was particularly fascinated by the different tribes and idioms of the North American natives. He eventually mastered a number of Indian dialects and later learned through intensive contact with exclusively Jewish classmates and teachers in East Prussia and Lithuania , the Yiddish . Kalistros studied specialist literature at an early age, was a visiting student at the German University of Politics (DHfP), wrote numerous columnist essays , had writing ambitions, described himself as a journalistic assistant, and was involved in one of his friend Emanuel bin Gorion (1903-1987 ) in Berlin founded literary society and corresponded with scientists. He worked in the Prussian State Library and in the Berlin Museum of Ethnology , where he met the ethnologist and linguist Franz Boas . He also had contact with the philosopher Herman Schmalenbach . The writer and Nobel Prize laureate in literature Gerhart Hauptmann became aware of him, possibly through his brother-in-law Moritz Heimann , and made it possible for him to visit a reform-pedagogical country school . Kalistros attended the Odenwald School in Ober-Hambach in southern Hesse in 1918 , and a little later the Free School Community in Wickersdorf. At the age of fourteen, he was abused by the FSG teacher Fernand Petitpierre, presumably using physical violence. When Kalistros confided in his mother, she rejected him and approved the attack because "it was better than messing with dirty women". For Kalistros, Petitpierre's crime was a "decisive story," as was his mother's behavior. Petitpierre was not held accountable, but Kalistros tried to attack his teacher with a knife after the incident. A few years later, the mother made sexual advances towards her teenage son. Kalistros evaded this request, which violated his moral standards, first to Paris and then to the North American reservations of the indigenous people there. After his return, his marriage in March 1929 to the seamstress Margarete (* 1906), née Schlei, led to an escalation with his mother. Kalistros had a daughter with his wife in December 1929. The highly troubled relationship between Kalistros and his mother Camilla, a love-hate relationship, culminated in his killing her in 1930. He tied her corpse according to an Indian rite. Then he turned himself in to the police; Arthur Nebe interrogated him. In 1931 he was sentenced to ten years and one week imprisonment for manslaughter of a relative in the ascending line (§ 215 RStGB ) and intellectual falsification of documents . Pretrial detention was taken into account when determining the sentence. The alleged forgery of documents was based on the fact that he had wanted to change his unpopular name on his own initiative. After serving his imprisonment, he asked Nebe, of all people, who had meanwhile had a steep NS career, to enable him to return to a middle-class life. Instead, he was assigned to the “ SS Special Unit Dirlewanger ”, a special unit that acted particularly unscrupulously with the approval of Heinrich Himmler and in which criminals were to be given “probation” , possibly at Nebes instigation . Within this unit, later referred to as the "SS-Sonderbataillon", "SS-Sonderregiment" and "SS-Sturmbrigade", they were beaten and killed arbitrarily and often for no reason. Dirlewanger members were officially not accepted into the Waffen-SS , even if they wore full SS uniforms without authorization . The unit, marauding behind the front and murdering tens of thousands of civilians, moved through the General Government , through Belarus , fought briefly on the front and was ultimately instrumental in suppressing the Warsaw Uprising . Kalistros was severely wounded in the head by a partisan's shot on the road between Błonie and Sochaczew west of Warsaw. The SS-Sturmmann , who was never promoted and apparently not awarded an award , who consequently had never made a name for himself in this criminal unit in the sense of his commanders, died at the age of 38 on August 21, 1944 in field hospital 29 and was buried in the "Heroes Cemetery" Seroki, twelve Kilometers west of Błonie. Kalistros inevitably had his share in the war crimes committed by this highly criminal group.
  • Hermann Thimig was one of the first students in the Free School Community from 1906 to 1908 . He literally blossomed through Luserke's "movement game" based on Shakespeare and later became an actor. His brother Fritz Thimig (1893–1936), who attended the FSG from 1906 to 1907, was less happy in Wickersdorf. Both had visited Hermann Lietz country education homes since 1902 and moved to Wickersdorf with Paul Geheeb in 1906 . In 1933, Hermann Thimig and Fritz Odemar , the father of FSG student Erik Ode , stood in front of the camera for the UFA feature film Viktor and Viktoria .
  • Ilse Trautschold , born in Charlottenburg near Berlin, was in the Free School Community from 1918 to 1921 , where she kept her older brother Walter (1902-1969) company, who attended boarding school from 1916 to 1920. The father of the two, Gustav Trautschold , was an actor, theater and film director in Berlin. At the age of 14, Ilse first appeared as a choir singer and trained as an actor at the Volksbühne Berlin . She had her first engagement in 1921 in Berlin, further in Köslin in West Pomerania , in Bremen and in Beuthen in Upper Silesia . She was very successful in the title role of Gerhart Hauptmann's Hanneles Himmelfahrt . From 1925 it belonged alongside Ernst Busch , Kurt Gerron , Annemarie Hase , Karl Schnog , Claire Waldoff and Erich Weinert to the ensemble of from Leon Hirsch Berlin cabaret founded The wasp near the Alexanderplatz , sang songs and of Claus Clauberg set to music song Mutterns hands of Kurt Tucholsky . There she met the actor Friedrich Gnaß in 1926 , who later became her life partner. Ilse Trautschold was politically active: The Wasps appeared at KPD events , Ilse took on the highly praised leading role in the miners' play Army Without Heroes . In 1929 she got her first role as a film actress in the famous silent film Mother Krausens Fahrt ins Glück . This film, premiered on December 30, 1929, was made in honor of Heinrich Zille, who had just died at the time, and was one of the biggest box office hits of that year. However, due to its class-fighting tendencies, it was only shown in a heavily shortened version. Under the direction of Phil Jutzi , who was advised by the painter and sculptor Käthe Kollwitz , Ilse played a young Berliner from the working class, the young girl Erna, who is gradually developing a class consciousness. Ilse was highly praised for her performance. The critic Siegfried Kracauer wrote in the renowned Frankfurter Zeitung : “The desperate Krause daughter searches the ranks for her boyfriend whom she wants to ask for help. She discovers him and now walks along on the train because she cannot speak to him otherwise. Can she speak to him? No, she has to sing like the comrades, because there is a demonstration. The gradual change in her face is wonderful: as if from the bottom of tears she hesitantly sees joy. [...] Ilse Trautschold, who belongs to the young generation of actors, has a strong certificate of competence in the role of daughter. With her bitter profile, she embodies original purity that can withstand dirt. ”Due to this great success, Ilse Trautschold was often committed to a role as a working-class girl and was thus severely limited in her acting variety. The big breakthrough was denied, especially since the National Socialists were given power in 1933 . In 1930 she and a group of young actors founded the cabaret Die Pille, which is also based in the Reich capital . That same year she stood for the anti-war film Western Front in 1918 by GW Pabst front of the camera. In 1932 she appeared alongside Hans Albers in the box office hit FP1 does not answer , in 1936 alongside Olga Chekhova , Adele Sandrock and FSG- Former Erik Ode in the film Der Favorit der Kaiserin , in 1937 alongside Zarah Leander and Willy Birgel in the melodrama Zu neue Shores , 1938 in the film comedy Little Man - Very Big with Viktor de Kowa . After the Second World War , she was able to get back to work when she appeared in the legendary Berlin cabaret Die Insulaner founded by Günter Neumann in 1948 , which was known almost all over Germany due to the nationwide broadcast of its programs on radio and television and also because of the confrontation it dealt with became particularly popular between East and West. Her colleagues on the island included Bruno Fritz , Walter Gross , Tatjana Sais , Edith Schollwer , Ewald Wenck and Agnes Windeck . From 1948 she also took on film roles again, for example in Robert A. Stemmle's highly acclaimed Berlin Ballad (1948) and in Erich Engel's adaptation Der Biberpelz (1949) based on Gerhart Hauptmann. She first found film roles at the East German DEFA , and later also in West Germany. She played in Emil Surmann's 1955 film adaptation of the Oscar Wilde play Das Gespenst von Canterville (German film title: Das Sandmännchen ), was part of the cast in Wolfgang Staudte's crime thriller The Last Witness (1960) and in Kurt Hoffmann's film adaptation Schloß Gripsholm (1963) based on Kurt Tucholsky . On the theater stage, she celebrated successes at the Freie Volksbühne ( To the good neighbor ), at the Schaubühne ( Lügen-Billy ) and at the Hansa-Theater ( Zu ville Promille ), also in plays such as Carlo Goldoni's Mirandolina and Ephraim Kishon's Der Trauschein . She even became one of the tough acting local Berliners with wit, quick-wittedness and a certain robustness, which she knew how to put in scene despite her petite and slim appearance. Occasionally she played alongside other Berlin greats such as Brigitte Mira and Günter Pfitzmann . Her filmography, which also includes television series, extends until 1985, after which she stood on stage or in front of the film camera for more than half a century. For her many years of outstanding work in German film, she was awarded the Gold Filmband in 1987 . Before and after the Second World War, Ilse Trautschold lived just like her brother Walter in the Berlin artists' colony . She died at the age of 85 and was buried next to her brother in the Dahlem forest cemetery.
  • Walter Trautschold attended the Free School Community from 1916 to 1920, his sister Ilse from 1918 to 1921. Walter left the Landerziehungsheim early because he felt misunderstood there. From 1921 he studied at the teaching establishment of the Kunstgewerbemuseum in Berlin with the set designer Eduard Suhr , who worked at the Lessing Theater and the Schlosspark Theater , and became a painter, sculptor, set designer, draftsman, illustrator and caricaturist, for example for the magazine Die Weltbühne . He drew for the literary magazine Der Orchideengarten and the satirical magazine Lachen links , which was published by Dietz-Verlag of the SPD . His style was based at that time on the Jugendstil ( Art Nouveau ). In the 1930s Walter worked as a set designer, z. B. for the Lustspielhaus at Friedrichstrasse 236. He drew and illustrated for Werner Finck's famous cabaret Die Katakombe . The National Socialists found themselves repeatedly provoked by this work . On May 10, 1935, Joseph Goebbels personally ordered the catacomb to be closed (at the same time the Tingel-Tangel Theater by Friedrich Hollaender and Günther Lüders ), the members of the catacomb to be taken into so-called “ protective custody ” and to the Esterwegen concentration camp for physical labor to convict. Julius Leber and Carl von Ossietzky were already there at the same time . The well-known actress Käthe Dorsch , however, turned to her childhood friend Hermann Göring , Goebbels' adversary, in favor of the members of the catacombs . Goering's advisor then wrote to Berlin's Gestapo boss Reinhard Heydrich on June 25, 1935 : “The Prime Minister wishes that the arrested persons be released from custody and that proper proceedings be instituted against them.” The proceedings ended with the entire ensemble an acquittal. From 1938 Walter Trautschold is said to have worked in the press department of the Tobis Filmkunst film company . Before and after the Second World War , he lived, like his sister Ilse, in the Berlin artists' colony . Some of his works were exhibited at the Great Berlin Art Exhibition . Walter Trautschold died at the age of 67 and was buried in the Dahlem forest cemetery. His sister Ilse rests right by his side.
  • The actor, radio play and screenwriter Hans-Joachim Wedekind first attended the Grunewald-Gymnasium in Berlin.

Wolf Schneider reminds his friend Hans-Joachim Wedekind as a “big joke”: “He was lively, cheeky, a nuisance for the teachers and a strain for his grandmother (who had taken him in, the illegitimate child). If she visited us playing and he was disturbed by it, he would bark at her: "Get away, woman!" And she smiled reassuringly and lifted herself up. Wedekind impressed us classmates with his ability to effortlessly transform an astonishing vocabulary; He had sayings in store like the radio announcement he had invented himself: "You are now listening to the lecture of the agricultural superauditor Wasserknall on the consequences of premature calcification of too thickly whitewashed barn walls", and we [as eleven year olds] found that incredibly funny ". Hans-Joachim Wedekind completed his last two school years, 1940 to 1942, in the Wickersdorfer school community , where he passed his school leaving examination . He received acting lessons at Lilly Ackermann's training institute for young stage talent on Xantener Strasse in Berlin-Wilmersdorf and worked on films as early as the Second World War .

In 1940 she married the third marriage of SS-Obergruppenführer August Heissmeyer (1897–1979), the inspector of the National Political Educational Institutions (NPEA or Napola). Gertrud Scholtz-Klink emphasized the absolute claim of her organization to lead the “Aryan women”, for whose ideological training and mobilization she took care of. She was also involved in Nazi crimes. The Reichsfrauenführerin was responsible for controlling the social contacts of the forced laborers who were employed in private households. At times she participated in the selection and training of concentration camp guards. She campaigned with great zeal for the implementation of Nazi social policy until the end of the Third Reich .

Other known people related to school

  • The Berlin sculptor Käthe Kollwitz had a good insight into the operation of the Free School Community in Wickersdorf, because her "foster son" Georg Gretor (pseudonym: Georges Barbizon), whom she had taken in from 1904, attended boarding school from 1911 to 1913 and taught there at the same time as a substitute teacher for French. She was a college friend of his mother, Rosa Pfäffinger . Together with her husband Karl Kollwitz , she considered giving their younger son Peter Kollwitz (1896-1914) to the FSG when his transfer in 1911 was threatened. He was close friends with the Berlin FSG student Erich Krems , with whom Käthe Kollwitz also maintained very personal contact, which intensified after the start of the war in 1914. Erich belonged to the Westend district with his older son Hans Kollwitz .
  • Peter Kollwitz (1896–1914), the youngest son of the sculptor Käthe Kollwitz , almost became a student of the Free School Community in Wickersdorf. He was described by his mother as very charming, very amiable, soft and funny, as sometimes absent-minded, sometimes cheeky and rude, at times rebellious and rebellious. He didn't like school. In her diary entries, Käthe Kollwitz outlined the thoughts and preferences that haunted her son: “ Playing billiards . Rockclimbing. Painting expressionistically . Skip school. The star Sky. In Zarathustra read. The Tuscany in May. Erich Krems. Hang out in Aschinger's fast buffet. Kintopp . The Baltic dunes at Prerow . Ice skating . The mass demonstrations of the SPD against the danger of war. Read Oscar Wilde in English. Smoke. Rebel against the school. ”In April 1911 he told his older brother Hans (1892–1971) that he wanted to become an artist, definitely a painter. His mother presented some of his drawings to his colleague Max Liebermann , who advised that Peter enroll in the painting class at the Kunstgewerbemuseum . In the same year, his school transfer was in jeopardy, so that his parents considered sending him to the rural education home in Wickersdorf. Since 1909 Peter was in contact with the youth movement ( Bündische Jugend ) through his "foster brother", the FSG student and French assistant teacher Georg Gretor . He was very close friends with the Berlin FSG student Erich Krems . The intended distance to the state school structures of the Wilhelmine era , more freedom, individuality and the camaraderie maintained in the boarding school could probably have attracted Peter in Wickersdorf. The lessons there hardly differed from what he was used to at the state schools in Berlin. On closer inspection, it turned out that Peter would have had to repeat a year in order to catch up with the material in Wickersdorf. After weighing up the advantages and disadvantages of changing schools, Georg Gretor advised against it. Peter Kollwitz then received permission from his parents to leave the state school with the secondary school leaving certificate instead of the Abitur and left his school at Easter 1912. Along with Erich Krems he enlisted after the outbreak of war in 1914 as a volunteer and already fell after a week at the front in West Flanders . In addition to Georg Gretor and Erich Krems, Peter Kollwitz probably also knew the FSG student Otto Braun . His mother Lily Braun was friends with Käthe Kollwitz; both exchanged ideas about their sons.
