 H-Net Review: Rose Gatens on Emil J. Gumbel, Weimar German Pacifist and Professor   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Emil J. Gumbel was one of the most widely known and outspoken critics of German militarism and political violence during the Weimar era.
As Gumbel himself acknowledged of Bertrand Russell, his courage as a middle-class intellectual was all the more impressive because it required him to disavow the status and power of the elites from which he himself sprang.
Gumbel's political biography is an important chapter in the larger history of pacifist opposition to twentieth-century warfare.

 Powell's Books - Emil J. Gumbel: (Weimar German pacifist and professor ) by Emil Julius Gumbel
Emil J. Gumbel (1891-1966) began his career simply as a professor of mathematical statistics in Heidelberg, but he is most remembered as a political activist militantly advocating for pacifism during the complicated and volatile times of the Weimar Republic in Germany.
A courageous man, Gumbel spoke out passionately against the Nazis and came to symbolize a 'one-man party' at the center of controversy in German academia.
His intellectual and moral vigor never waned, and despite his significant scientific contributions, it is his legacy of political ideology that endures for later generations to learn from.

During the first year of the journal, Deutsch penned a separate essay, in which he traced the intent of some Germans for their conquest of America back to the beginning of the 20th century.
Such plans for post-war Europe must also be seen in the light of the journal's liberal stance on the political role, which the United States was to play in a World freed from totalitarian oppression.
Julius Deutsch blamed him for having repeatedly changed his identity since coming to the United States.

 M-TH: Uncovering Marx's Unpublished Writings (fwd)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Publication of Marx's mathematical manuscripts, already edited by the young German mathematician Julius Gumbel (who had been recommended by Einstein) and even set in proofs by 1927, did not appear until 1968.
As she pointed out, in his edition of the *Ethnological Notebooks*, even Krader had held back from mentioning Riazanov's dismissive attitude to the excerpt notebooks.
In Stalinist style, that 1968 edition did not even mention Gumbel - see Annette Vogt, "Emil Julius Gumbel (1891-1966): der erste Herausgeber der mathematischen Manuscripte von Karl Marx," *MEGA-Studien* No. 2 (1995), pp.
