	Bruno Schulz (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Schulz was a true baroque master of the marvellous and his fictions haunt the ghostly border between dream and memory.
		Schulz, despite his chronic timidity and his isolation, belonged fully to the modern in Western literature which articulates a breakdown in coherence, a radical disjunction, which deals with madness and tedium and a profound sense of exclusion and solitude.
		Bruno Schulz was murdered in his hometown by an SS officer in 1942.

	Bruno Schulz - Free net encyclopedia
		Image:BrunoSchulz.jpg Bruno Schulz (July 12, 1892 – November 19, 1942) was a Polish novelist and painter of the Jewish faith, widely considered to be one of the greatest Polish prose stylists of the 20th century.
		Schulz was born in Drohobycz (now Drohobych), which was at the time part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire's province of Galicia.
		Schulz became a writer by chance, after several letters that he wrote to a friend, in which he gave highly original accounts of his solitary life and the details of the lives of his fellow-citizens, were brought to the attention of the novelist Zofia Nałkowska.

	Bruno Schulz
		Bruno Schulz was born in Drohobycz (now Drogobych, Ukraine), a small town in Galicia, into a Jewish family.
		In the "Aryan" quarter Schulz was spotted by him, and shot in retaliation, on the street in November 19, 1942.
		Schulz's stories reflected the influence of Franz Kafka, but in spite of their threatening atmosphere, they had surrealistic humor and realistic details, which tied them to everyday family life.

	Bruno Schulz - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bruno Schulz (July 12, 1892 – November 19, 1942) was a Polish/Ukrainian novelist and painter, widely considered to be one of the greatest Polish prose stylists of the 20th century.
		Schulz was born in Drohobycz, at the time when it was part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, in the province of Galicia.

	Jaimy Gordon, "The Strange Afterlife of Bruno Schulz"
		Bruno Schulz was one of two great Polish fiction writers of the two decades between the wars, and so luckless was he, so lucky are we by comparison, that we may read his complete works in one long, trash-blown, bottomless, weedy, windy, starry, swirling, Lower Carpathian day.
		Schulz was a brilliant caricaturist of his own face, which he never drew straight on, but always tilted at an odd angle, half scheming, half beseeching--the face of a lemur or a gnome in its own mirror, perhaps.
		Schulz's father, we are told, developed cancer on top of tuberculosis and wasted in bed for years, but the figure of Father in the stories is characterized more by florid dementia than by physical debility, although he is never far from his chamberpot.

	Violet Books: Bruno Schulz
		Bruno frequently drew dominatrices, often with his own overt self-portrait as the submissive, athough this chap in "The Eternal Fairy Tale" is rendered anonymous by the amazon's foot.
		A Polish Jew, Bruno was born into a merchant family, & was a high school art teacher in the city of Drohobycz, which was at the time in Poland though it is now in the Ukraine.
		But if that limited view of Bruno as arch martyr is really abroad, I never noticed it, because no one sensible would mistake his personal masochistic lust for passivity — he pursued that aggressively — let alone mistake his Aesthete wispiness for frailty of spirit.

	Benjamin Paloff: Who Owns Bruno Schulz?
		On November 19, 1942, the great Polish author Bruno Schulz left his home in the Jewish ghetto of Drohobycz—according to the generally accepted version of the story, he had gone to fetch a ration of bread—and was shot to death by a German SS officer.
		Schulz’s stories, phantasmagoric portraits of small-town life during the disintegration of the Austro-Hungarian empire, are told in a lush, lyrical prose that is widely credited with reinvigorating the Polish literary language of the 1930s.
		The controversy surrounding the Schulz frescoes stems from Yad Vashem’s unilateralism and the sense among Schulz experts—almost all of whom are Polish or specialists in Polish literature—that the frescoes’ removal was both an affront to the artist’s memory and a major setback in efforts to reconcile Central Europe with its Jewish history.

	A Living Schulz
		Her Schulz mystery The Messiah of Stockholm6 recounts the obsession of Lars Andemening, an unappreciated literary reviewer for the Stockholm Morgentorn, with the stories and drawings of Bruno Schulz, whom he believed to be his actual father, and the intrigue surrounding his attempts to find the manuscript of The Messiah.
		Schulz's gesture is to separate this story from the rest of the stories as an appendage, an "apocrypha" or significantly a "palimpsest," a text erased and written over.
		Schulz and Mann corresponded briefly in 1938 and 1939,33 and it is alleged that Schulz may have even sent Mann a typescript copy his lost novel The Messiah, though this has never been confirmed.

	BRUNO SCHULZ
		Schulz did not begin writing until about 1925, when he was encouraged by W. Riff.
		Schulz's writing, it has been claimed, belongs to the Expressionist tradition, which sought to encapsulate fundamental issues and existential questions by means of myth and symbol, and in terms of psychological insight.
		For Schulz, myth is concentrated in memories from childhood, the 'age of genius', in which the original meaning of words is sought out.

		In the years since his tragic death in the streets of Drohobycz, the Polish town where he was born, Bruno Schulz (1892 –; 1942) has been the subject of intense curiosity and speculation.
		As his fame grew, Schulz struggled to write The Messiah, the novel that was to be his masterwork.
		Schulz, driven into the ghetto, was first placed under the protection of a Nazi officer who obliged him to paint fairy tale figures on the walls of his son’s bedroom.

		Schulz was born, lived and died in Drohobycz, a town in what was called Galicia and is now part of western Ukraine.
		“Schulz was a builder of a reality-asylum that was a marvelous ‘intensification of the taste of the world’; Kafka was an inhabitant and propagator of a world of terror, an ascetic hermit awaiting a miracle of justice that never came.
		Schulz was a metaphysician garbed in all the wealth of color; Kafka was a mystic in a hair shirt of worldly denials.

	Schulz and the Galician Melting Pot of Cultures (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		One cannot doubt that Schulz’s real ambition as an artist was to enter the Polish (and European) literary arena, to conquer literary Warsaw (and Paris), and not to remain within the narrow confines of the Jewish province where he was born.
		The Schulz home in Galicia—German and Polish speaking, as witnesses recall (Schulz, L 55–56)—yielded, like many middle-class Jewish homes of that era, to two waves of acculturation: the first was the expansive German wave of the 1860s, and the second, a few decades later, was Polish.
		Born in Lwów, Vogel was a student of philosophy in Vienna and of Polish language and literature in Cracow, and the author of a dissertation on the influence of the aesthetics of Hegel on Józef Kremer.

		Bruno Schulz was shot in the streets of Drohobycz in November of 1942.
		Schulz was bringing home a loaf of bread when he was killed by a Gestapo officer who had a grudge against another Nazi, Schulz's temporary "protector" who liked his paintings.
		He was a solitary man, living part, filled with his dreams, with memories of his childhood, with an intense, formidable inner life, a painter's imagination, a sensuality and responsiveness to physical stimuli which most probably could find satisfaction only in artistic creation - a volcano, smoldering silently in the isolation of a sleepy provincial town.

	Cover to Cover - The Street of Crocodiles by Bruno Schulz - Printer-Friendly
		Bruno Schulz, a Polish Jew killed by the Nazis in 1942, is considered by many to have been the leading Polish writer between the two world wars.
		Schulz writes of his father's creeping insanity, the strange landscape of his small shop, and the forboding accompanying the end of the world with the approach of a comet.
		While Schulz's imagery and simile get a little repetitive, the atmosphere of living objects and mysterious confluence of life is compelling and hypnotic.

	Regions of the Great Heresy: SR, September 2003
		Alhough Schulz's work was praised by some of the best writers of the day, and although he won prestigious awards, he did not enter into a glamorous writer's life.
		Schulz's own biography is one of world literature's most poignant; equally poignant is the story of the eighteen-year-old who successfully resolved to make this lost author's work known.
		Deborah Vogel, for example, is in and of herself "not of primary importance"; rather she is mentioned merely as a "muse for Bruno Schulz." Though Schulz almost never left his hometown, he lived in the Austrian Empire, Poland, the Soviet Union, and under the Third Reich.

	A secret history: The fiction of Bruno Schulz - Minnesota Daily
		The Gestapo murdered Schulz in the streets of Prague a scant five years after his first collection was published, whereupon the Nazis (and later the Communists) suppressed the author's work, which after its initial international acclaim quickly grew obscure.
		Schulz approached autobiography as an invitation to art, and in his short stories about his childhood he tells fables of almost hallucinogenic intensity.
		Schulz's influence is slight nowadays, but instantly identifiable - think of City of Lost Children, a French film that plays like a fairy tale told by Schulz, or the remarkable animated adaptation of Street of Crocodiles by the Brothers Cray.

		The scanalous series, the only one that Schulz ever created and one revealing the world of his immagination, was shown exclusively to close friends and a public distant from his native Drohobycz.
		Several of the portafolios have survived, notably in the library of the Jagiellonian University and at the Museum of Literature in Warsaw.
		Schulz gave several portafolios to friends and the rest he sold with varying success.

	Robert Fulford's column about Bruno Schulz
		His drawings were as significant to Schulz as his writing, and in one way they're more revealing: they express an abject sexuality, not a long way from masochism.
		Ozick wraps her novel around the search for a manuscript Schulz may have written; her main character, a Stockholm literary critic, hunts for this lost masterpiece, partly because he thinks Schulz is his biological father.
		It is as if Schulz in 1934 is anticipating Disneyland, a surrealist's nightmare that became "reality." In 1936 Schulz called an essay, "The Republic of Dreams." In that country, he's a leading citizen.

		We later learn from her that Schulz's early work was promoted by a Warsaw novelist, Zofia Nalkowska; that he published a collection of drawings, a novella, and another collection of stories entitled Sanatorium under the Sign of the Hourglass.
		The father portrayed by Schulz is this work's protagonist, if any there is. But he is a protagonist whose relations to the narrator, as son, are beyond idiosyncratic.
		It may be that the unique aura of Schulz's work arises in great measure precisely from his sympathy with the father's generation and with the people who dominated his childhood.

	The New York Review of Books: BRUNO SCHULZ'S WALL PAINTINGS
		The contexts in which to understand Bruno Schulz's works are the Holocaust and the state of commemoration in Drohobych over the last fifty-seven years.
		Bruno Schulz was persecuted, enslaved, and ultimately murdered because he was a Jew, not because he was a cultural pluralist or a symbol of universal artistic genius.
		The synagogue is in total disrepair and reeks of human waste, Schulz was hardly remembered in Drohobych, and his ghetto art was left to decay and be hammered with nails in a private residence, unknown to most of the world.

	Powell's Books - The Street of Crocodiles (Penguin Twentieth-Century Classics) by Bruno Schulz
		The Street of Crocodiles in the Polish city of Drogobych is a street of memories and dreams where recollections of Bruno Schulz's uncommon boyhood and of the eerie side of his merchant family's life are evoked in a startling blend of the real and the fantastic.
		Most memorable — and most chilling — is the portrait of the author's father, a maddened shopkeeper who imports rare birds' eggs to hatch in his attic, who believes tailors' dummies should be treated like people, and whose obsessive fear of cockroaches causes him to resemble one.
		In the Polish city of Drogobych is a street of memories and dreams where recollections of Schulz's boyhood are evoked in a startling blend of the real and the fantastic.
