Trude Marzik (1974)

Edeltrud "Trude" Marzik (born June 6, 1923 in Vienna ; † December 11, 2016 there ) was an Austrian narrator and poet .

Life

Trude Marzik wrote poetry during her first school years. She studied English and German at the University of Vienna until 1945 , but was unable to complete her studies because the course was interrupted by the end of the war.

During her studies she also took private acting lessons and passed the stage entrance examination in 1944 . In the post-war period, Marzik initially earned her money by performing cabaret with Fred Kraus and in Lieben Augustin with Fritz Eckhardt . She later looked for a job with the Pan Am airline . The job and the birth of her son initially left her little time to write. It was only when the son was grown up that poems were regularly written again. She herself referred to the verses “Mei Bua” as “fate poem”, which she recited for the first time at her son's wedding and which she spontaneously sent to Heinz Conrads . He read it just as spontaneously and with great success in one of his programs. The ORF later referred to this as her "breakthrough" through which she became widely known.

In 1971 she signed her first contract with Zsolnay for Aus der Kuchlkredenz . This was followed by a series of poetry and prose volumes, all distinguished with loving humor and Viennese charm. The 13th, expanded edition of the Kuchlkredenz was declared the Golden Book of the Main Association of the Austrian Book Trade in 1996.

With her autobiographical work Geliebte Sommerfrische (1994), she set a literary monument to both the phenomenon of summer vacation and the Lower Austrian Kamptal summer resorts of Plank and Kamegg , where she spent several summers, and Gars , which she only visited several times. In the Waldviertel, a 15 km long hiking trail was named after her.

In her book Parallelgedichte (1973) she translated poetry by Goethe, Eichendorff, Rilke, Kästner and Brecht into Viennese . Her volumes of poetry are mainly in dialect . The novel Romeo Spätlese is a cheerful Romeo and Juliet story set in a nursing home. In 2000, Trude Marzik looked back at The Beginning of the Kuchlkredenz as an author for almost 30 years. Just in time for the author's 80th birthday, “Schlichte Gedichte” appeared in 2003.

Her final resting place is in the Hernalser Friedhof (group 37, number 27) in Vienna.
