Curiosity, this time of the sad kind: when the funny Austrian stand-up comedian Lisa Eckhart appears in the “Literary Quartet” on ZDF at half past eleven this Friday evening, the German Jew and literary critic Marcel Reich-Ranicki finally lost the fight against the Nazis.
That he survived the many assassination attempts by the Hitlerites against him does not matter. It was much more important for the Börne in the last postwar period to save German literature from them, from their empty folkloric bourgeoisie. Because they hated and feared the books and phrases of the Jews just as they hated and feared the Jews. They wanted no trace of their wild thinking and clear writing to remain in German minds and libraries, so they set their books on fire in front of their bodies. Marcel Reich-Ranicki did not want to accept it. Wherever he wrote or spoke – at Gruppe 47, in “Zeit”, at the FAZ, in Klagenfurt, at the “Literary Quartet” – he brought out the burning works of Feuchtwanger, Roth, Isaak Babel from the Nazi fire and talked about it to the new Germans in his wild and clear Jewish way so that they did not become anti-Semites like their parents and grandparents. Almost made it.
