Ring National Writer (Austria)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Ring Nationaler Writer ( RnS ) was a nationalist , anti - Semitic association in Austria .

Club history

The ring of national writers (RnS) was founded on April 28, 1933 by the literary group of the Kampfbund for German Culture (Austria) , with the writer Mirko Jelusich playing a leading role. The RnS was already described as founded in May 1933 in the communications of the Kampfbund für deutsche Kultur , but the request for a “non-prohibition” of the association was not received by the City of Vienna until mid-June 1933 . The authorities had no objection to the establishment, but the RnS no longer reported and was therefore deleted from the register of associations. Presumably the ban of the NSDAP in Austria on June 19, 1933 had contributed significantly to the inaction of the RnS. After the founding of the Federation of German Writers Austria (BdSÖ) in 1936, the RnS was incorporated into it.

tasks and goals

The RnS saw its task in “defending the values ​​of the German being in the midst of today's cultural decline and promoting every expression of the German cultural being.” The aim was to “inform the German people about the connections between race, art and science, moral and to explain willful values. "
