Maximilian Friedrich Wilhelm August Leopold von Schwartzkoppen (24 February 1850 – 8 January 1917 ) was a Prussian military officer, later given the rank of General of the Infantry, and German military attaché in Paris. He is best known for his role in the Dreyfus Affair. ==Life and career== Maximilian von Schwartzkoppen was born in Potsdam, Brandenburg, the son of Prussian general Emil von Schwartzkoppen (1810–1878) and his wife Anna Marie Luise, née von Ditfurth (1816–1865). The Schwartzkoppen family, ennobled in 1688, descended from Brunswick. Von Schwartzkoppen joined the Prussian Army in the late 1860s and took part in the Franco-Prussian War of 1870/71. He served as a member of the general staff in the rank of captain (''Hauptmann'') from 1885 to 1888 and thereupon became adjutant of Prince Ernest Louis of Hesse. On 10 December 1891, von Schwartzkoppen took office as military attaché of the German Empire in Paris, maintaining relations with the French Republic. His subisidiary task was to secretly obtain informations on the French Army, whereby he became involved in the Dreyfus Affair: in 1894 he received an anonymous offer for the purchase of rather insignificant military intelligence, outlined in an unsigned "bordereau". The torn paper, supposedly in Dreyfus' handwriting, was recovered from Schwartzkoppen's wastebasket by a cleaning woman on September 25; it became the key evidence of his conviction for treason. Serious doubts regarding Dreyfus' guilt were raised already during his trial. Later investigations showed that in fact von Schwartzkoppen was receiving intelligence not from Dreyfus but from the French officer Ferdinand Walsin Esterhazy. Schwartzkoppen himself confirmed Dreyfus' innocence in his memoirs, published posthumously in 1930.
