	Wolfgang Borchert - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Wolfgang Borchert (May 20, 1921 – November 20, 1947) was a German author and playwright whose work was affected by his experience of dictatorship and his service in the Wehrmacht during the Second World War.
		Borchert was born in 1921 in the German city of Hamburg, the only child of teacher Fritz Borchert and author Hertha Borchert.
		Borchert was posted to the Eastern front, where he saw the full horror of the eastern conflict, witnessing the numerous casualties in battle and those sustained due to cold, starvation, and inadequate equipment.

		Wolfgang Borchert was born in Germany in 1921 and died in Basel, Switzerland in 1947.
		Borchert wrote directly and indirectly of his experiences during this twelve year time capsule of German history, foremost as a sensitive poet, but also as a soldier drafted into the German army.
		A chronicle of Germany's dictatorship and post-war collapse, Borchert's existentially universal themes of confinement, alienation, psychological and physical trauma transcend the events of mid-20th century Germany.

	E. J. Campfield Translations
		Born in Hamburg in 1921, Borchert was drafted into the German infantry in 1941 and assigned to the Russian front where he was critically wounded.
		Physically broken, Borchert lived barely two years after the war, yet it was during this brief time that he turned out virtually all of his writings.
		Borchert's short stories are all miniatures -- bleak vignettes of life in cold, war-plagued surroundings.

		Wolfgang Borchert has always been one of my favorite German poets.
		Sadly, there is no more an appropriate time to re-read some of Borchert’s most compelling essays than on this fateful day.
		Even more sadly, it is too much to hope for, however, that those who are about to send their nations’ soldiers into war will do the same.

	Part II, Note on Text Choice
		This radio play by Wolfgang Borchert is considered a classic of German literature and is on the reading lists for majors and graduate students in most colleges and universities.
		Borchert's returned veteran has severe problems adjusting to everyday life.
		His questions ("what was I fighting for?," "who is responsible for the deaths of or injuries to people under my command?") represent a familiar trope to American students whose parents recall Viet Nam, or for those students aware of the aftermath problems encountered by veterans of the recent Gulf War.

	Life and Works of Wolfgang Borchert, 1571132708, £45.00/$75.00, 266 2003
		Wolfgang Borchert has been called "the most important voice of post-war German literature." He came to fame literally overnight when his play Draussen vor der Tür (The Man Outside) was broadcast in the British zone of occupied Germany in February 1947 and evoked impassioned reactions both for and against.
		An examination of the plight of the returning soldier in the postwar world, it has become an icon of its time, capturing the futility of war and the true cost of the destruction in both physical and spiritual terms.
		The study links Borchert's own literary ambition with the enlightened family circumstances in which he grew up, and charts his development from a rebellious teenager with a passion for theater via his fighting as a soldier on Germany's Eastern Front and his imprisonment by the Nazis to his brief but intense career as a writer.

		Ende 1941 hatte Borchert ein Engagement an der Landesbühne in Osthannover in Lüneburg und ihm blieb keine Zeit mehr für sein geplantes Drama.
		In den Kriegsjahren, 1941-45, die Borchert an der russischen Front, in Lazaretten und in Gefängnissen verbrachte, fand er kaum noch Zeit, sich an einem dramatischen Werk zu versuchen.
		During the war years 1941-45, which Borchert spent at the Russian Front, (and) in military/ field hospitals and in various prisons he again found hardly any time to attempt a dramatic work.

	The Oberlin Review Online
		He attempts suicide after finding his wife took another lover during the war, and from this odd start and his subsequent conversation with the river that rejects his death, he travels, flails and questions his way through the remains of his city, and of his mind.
		Wolfgang Borchert’s modular play, “The Man Outside” takes a hard look at a vast body of soldiers that few outside Germany — and, for that matter, since 1945 —; have taken the effort to understand.
		Borchert wrote the play knowing he would die just days after completing this work, and so created an autobiographical sketch of his truncated, tormented post-war life.

	Unpublishable Works: Borchert, 1571130918, £30.00/$55.00, 120pp, 1997
		This book is a study of Germany's first post-war author, Wolfgang Borchert, including his pre-1945 literary works, and offering the first complete and comprehensive analysis of his unpublished oeuvre.
		It covers the dramatic and poetic works written during the period that Germany was preparing for, and then engaged in, the struggle that led to its devastation.
		Professor Warkentin identifies themes and ideas common to both published and unpublished works, arguing that the literature produced by Borchert in post-war Hamburg is not solely the product of a disillusioned soldier, but the result of a lengthy developmental process begun as early as 1938, when Borchert's first poem was published in Nazi Germany.

	Out Of My Mind
		Translation Of Wolfgang Borchert's "Der Stiftzahn, Oder Warum Mein Vetter Keine Rahmbonbon Mehr Isst"
		Wolfgang Borchert is known mostly for his dark and wistful—and often bitter—meditations on war, but in several of his stories, he demonstrates a sharp and penetrating sense of humor, and even, on occasions, a bit of nostalgia.
		“The Crowned Tooth,” told with Borchert’s usual patient, staccato, poetic style, is a vignette from a lost childhood, from a lost age, from a lost innocence—which are never quite lost.
