Tobias Wimbauer (born June 13, 1976 in Überlingen ) is a German publicist and antiquarian . He lives with Hagen .
Career
Wimbauer comes from a family of anthroposophists, his father Herbert Wimbauer wrote numerous books on anthroposophy . In 1999 Tobias Wimbauer began studying German and philosophy at the University of Freiburg , which he broke off in 2002. He then worked as a journalist for the weekly newspaper Junge Freiheit and in publishing. In 2004 he resumed his studies in German and sociology in Wuppertal , but did not finish it.
In 1999 Wimbauer became known to the specialist public when he deciphered numerous aliases used by Jünger in his personal register in Ernst Jünger's diaries . He also created a register for Jünger's correspondence with Carl Schmitt . Because of the time-consuming indexing work as well as new finds relating to Jünger's correspondence (including with Alfred Kubin and Schmitt), Wimbauer is sometimes referred to as the "detective of Ernst Jünger's life". Wimbauer's discovery of an unknown letter from Paul Celan to Jünger, which he presented in the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung in 2005 , received attention beyond the specialist public . In the same year, theo Buck published a detailed preparation and criticism of the feuilleton discussion that followed .
In 2004, Wimbauer started a debate about the fictional content of Jünger's diaries with a new interpretation of the “notorious Burgundy scene” from the radiations , by gathering evidence that the air attack described there had not actually taken place. Wimbauer's thesis that Jünger ciphered an escalating love affair with the Parisian doctor Sophie Ravoux in the “Burgundy scene” led to a closer study of the affair in Jünger's research.
In another “Scoop” ( Der Umblatter ) in 2008 in the FAZ, Wimbauer described how a National Socialist censorship agency was deceived in 1942 by printing two different versions of Jünger's diary volume, Gardens and Roads .
Until about 2004 Wimbauer published in publications and worked with institutions of the New Right . Among other things, he wrote for Junge Freiheit and Criticón (today Neue Nachrichten ) and published in the right-wing conservative publisher Edition Antaios . Wimbauer wrote the epilogue in 2001 for the first volume of a selection of writings by the temporary Jünger secretary and publicist Armin Mohler , known as a cross-border commuter between the New Right and right-wing extremism .
From 2002 to 2003 Wimbauer was a member of the board of directors of the new right Institute for State Policy . Wimbauer also created the index for the book Jewish Bolshevism - Myth and Reality by Johannes Rogalla von Bieberstein , which in 2003 provided the template for Martin Hohmann's controversial “perpetrator people” speech.
In 2009, in an interview with the New Right's blog The Talk , he distanced himself from his political past. He pointed out that since May 2004 he has not published anything in Junge Freiheit or similar publications, but essentially only in the FAZ and on the blog Literaturkritik.de . He describes his departure from the New Right as "gradual alienation and increasing irritation". The interview was published in 2010 in his book Expanding the Book Cave. Five interviews with Tobias Wimbauer. reprinted.
Wimbauer runs a mail order shop and from 2009 to 2015 ran a book publisher called "Eisenhut Verlag" together with his wife Silvia Stolz-Wimbauer (as the owner).
