Adolf Bartels (15 November 1862 – 7 March 1945) was a German journalist and poet. Known for his ''völkisch'' worldview, he has been seen as a harbinger of Nazi anti-Semitism.〔Roderick Stackelberg, "Bartels, Adolf", in ''Antisemitism : a historical encyclopedia of prejudice and persecution'', edited by Richard S. Levy. ABC-CLIO, Santa Barbara, 2005, ISBN 1-85109-439-3 (p. 59-60).〕 Bartels was born at Wesselburen, in Holstein, and educated at Leipzig and Berlin. An artisan's son, Bartels studied literature. After 1895 a free-lance journalist in Weimar, he gained a reputation as a Hebbel scholar. In 1897 he wrote a history of German literature that was marked by racist evaluations and rabid antisemitism; it became a pioneering work for National Socialist literary reviews. According to Bartels, even authors whose names sounded Jewish, who wrote for the "Jewish press", or who were friendly with Jews were "contaminated with Jewishness". The noblest task of ''völkisch'' cultural policy would therefore be a radical de-Jewing of the arts, and thus the "salvation of National Socialist Germany" ((ドイツ語:National-sozialistisches Deutschlands Rettung); 1924). Bartels led a successful campaign to prevent the unveiling of a statue of Heinrich Heine in 1906. After World War One, Bartels' work experienced an upsurge in popularity, with his followers forming the ''Bartelsbund'' (Bartels Society) to promote his ideas; the Bartelsbund later merged with Erich Ludendorff's Tannenbergbund group.〔 Bartels' work achieved "quasi-official" status in Nazi Germany, and Hitler personally awarded Bartels the Alderschild medal, Nazi Germany's highest civilian honour, in 1937.〔 Bartels died in Weimar on 7 March 1945. Bartels's further literary productions included ''Die Dithmarscher'' (1898), a historical novel based on his native region advocating ruralism, which sold over 200,000 copies by the 1920s,〔Richard J. Evans, ''The Coming of the Third Reich''. 2004, Penguin Books, London. ISBN 0-14-100975-6 (p. 122).〕 and ''Martin Luther'' (1903); these books are largely forgotten today. ==Works== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Adolf Bartels」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
