July 1888 as Eugen Moritz Friedrich Rosenstock in Berlin-Steglitz; † February 24, 1973 in Norwich, Vermont, USA) was a German and American legal historian and sociologist, whose lifelong research was wide, but also applied to the living language. He was a Jewish origin and was baptized Evangelical in 1905. Some essays in the Catholic magazine Highland (1931/32) he drew with the pseudonym Ludwig Stahl .

Rosenstock-Huessy distinguished a fine feeling for the historical events, which he made as a co-lived awake and with surprising speed in larger connections. He worked as a university teacher, as a publisher of the first Daimler-Werkszeitung, as the first head of the Academy for Work in Frankfurt am Main, as a professor in Wroclaw, as a co-initiator of the Silesian labor camp for workers, farmers and students, as an “ore father of the district of the district” [first] , as Walter Hammer (1888-1966) called him, and as a university lecturer in the United States.

Eugen Rosenstock-Huessy always understood himself as one of those who were looking for new ways after the basic experience of collapse after the First World War to show a social order. The authors of the magazine included this crowd in particular The creature that appeared from 1926 to 1930. [2] The encounter with Franz Rosenzweig illuminated him that despite Christianity, Judaism must continue to exist. [3]

Immediately after Hitler’s “seizure of power”, Rosenstock-Huessy emigrated to the United States in 1933 and returned to Germany for a lecture at the University of Göttingen in 1950. [4] His most loyal European listeners after 1945 can be found in the Netherlands; Important works by him have been translated into the Dutch.

Eugen Rosenstock-Huessy was born as the son of Carl Theodor (1853–1929) and Paula († 1938) Rosenstock at Plantagenstraße 3 in Berlin. He had three older and three younger sisters. He attended the Friedrich-Wilhelms, then the Joachimsthaler high school and in 1906 graduated from high school (with Greek and Latin).

Afterwards Rosenstock-Huessy studied law in Zurich, Berlin and Heidelberg (among others with Ernst Immanuel Bekker) and was at the Heidelberg University in 1910 with the dissertation Country peace courts and provincial meetings from the ninth to twelfth century To Dr. jur. died -out [5] . After that, as a one-year-old volunteer, he did his military service at the artillery in Kassel. Already in 1912 he habilitated at the University of Leipzig with the work Ostfalen’s legal literature under Frederick II. [6] for German private law and German legal history, which made it the youngest private lecturer in Germany at the time. He expanded his Venia Legendi in 1914 to work Königshaus and tribes in Germany between 911 and 1250 [7] , who in Heidelberg in 1923 his doctorate on Dr. phil. made possible, [8] also on constitutional law, in 1923 as a private lecturer for sociology in Darmstadt.

Even before the war, Rosenstock-Huessy made friendship with Franz Rosenzweig. [9] During a study stay in Florence in 1913/14, he had met the Swiss art historian Margrit Huessy; They married in Leipzig in 1914, one day after the Sarajevo attack. During the First World War, he was on the western front as an officer. In 1921 the son Hans came to the world. Since 1925, Rosenstock has been naming the wife in the double name Rosenstock-Huessy.

After the First World War, Rosenstock-Huessy waived tempting offers from the University of Leipzig, the magazine Highland and to prepare for a constitution for the Weimar Republic [ten] And went to Daimler-Benz, where he published the first German factory newspaper. [11] [twelfth] In 1920 he published the Scripture The wedding of the war and the revolution .

In 1921, Rosenstock-Huessy was a co-founder and first head of the Academy of Work in Frankfurt am Main, from which he separated in 1922 in a dispute with the other lecturers for new forms of cooperation. In 1923 he followed a call for a professorship to the University of Wroclaw, where he researched and taught until his emigration in 1933. In several publications, he treated the new legal questions in all areas of life as a result of industrialization (see 1926 in the arrangement for Xaver Gretener From industrial law. Legal systematic questions ). His friendship with Joseph Wittig also began in Breslau, whose document the three -volume work The age of the church is whose band 3 of 1928 deals with the history of the excommunication of Wittig. In 1931 his revolutionary work was published The European revolutions. Folk characters and state formation .

In 1924 Rosenstock-Huessy was a co-founder of the “Hohenrodter Federation”, which devoted himself to the “free folk education” of the new direction. From 1928 to 1932 he designed and organized the voluntary work services in common camps for students, farmers and workers, who combined physical work with intensive discussions on social questions, one of which he founded and founded and at the suggestion of Helmuth James von Moltkes in Kreisau (now Kryzowa) accompanied until 1933 (Löwenberger Working Group).

In 1931 Rosenstock-Huessy published in the magazine Highland the essay The Third Reich and the storm birds of National Socialism [13] . In it he attributes the contemporary term “third empire” to his sources in the medieval history theologian Joachim von Fiore and represents the political concept of young conservative Arthur Moeller van den Bruck. He criticizes the use of this initially theological term by National Socialism. “A word of theology has been taken over to the worldly state of imagination (…).” Rosenstock-Huessy turns against the ideas of 1789. The National Socialists represented a “sub-war break in our people”. That was but not the German actual task; Rather, there must be a “international world”, a “Christian third empire” in which the Germans held the spiritual leadership with the ideas of Johann Wolfgang Goethes and Friedrich Hölderlins. He concludes his explanations with the statement that “we cannot share the National Socialists’ faith”. [14]

Two days after the “seizure of power”, Rosenstock-Huessy canceled his Breslau courses in 1933 and obtained the formal leave of absence to prepare his emigration from the German Empire. [15] On November 9, 1933, he left it on the ship Germany to the United States of America. Woman and son soon followed him.

In Den USA War Rosenstock-HueSy 1934 Kuno Francke Lecturer in German Art and Culture in the Harvard University . When he returned to Germany in 1935, the decision to leave Germany confirmed that the return to America became conscious immigration for him and he could be naturalized in 1941. [16] From 1935 he worked on the retirement in 1957 until he retired in 1957 Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire.

In 1940 the President of the USA, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Rosenstock-Huessy asked for leadership training for the Civilian Conservation Corps to organize what he is for Camp William James founded in Vermont, which also organized voluntary work services. This activity had to be canceled in 1941 when the German Empire had declared war on the United States. From 1941 to 1945 he published his basic writing The Origin of Speech . [17]

Rosenstock-Huessy’s wife Margrit and Franz Rosenzweig have had a strong affection since 1917. The traditional letters from Rosenzweig from the long -term correspondence were published in 2002. [18] Margrit Huessy died in 1959. The following year Freya Gräfin von Moltke, the widow of the resistance fighter Helmes Graf von Moltke, who was executed in January 1945, moved to Rosenstock-Huessy to Norwich in Vermont. There they lived together to his death. [19]

Until his last book Service on the planet (1965) worked and published Eugen Rosenstock-Huessy in German and English. He died on February 24, 1973.

The Eugen rosenstock-huessy gesellschaft was founded on July 6, 1963 on July 6, 1963 on the initiative of his Betheler friend Georg Müller. Their goal is to preserve his works and work in all areas of life. She has been giving the Messages from Eugen Rosenstock-Huessy Society out of here. Eugen Rosenstock-Huessy had regular encounters with the upper level of the Friedrich von Bodelschwingh-Gymnasium in Bethel near Bielefeld, whose long-time director Georg Müller was.

In Vermont has existed since 1976 Eugen Rosenstock-Huessy Fund , who promotes the distribution of the works of Rosenstock-Huessys there and published his lectures on Dartmouth College.

Numerous books of Rosenstock-Huessys were reissued after the Second World War, and a “sworn circle of friends and followers since the 1950s has presented studies on the life and work of Rosenstock-Huessys […] On the other hand, Rosenstock-Huessy’s name is not known to any wider audience , his writings are read little. […] The serious scientific occupation with the idiosyncratic, unfortunately very leap, but imaginative author is still at the beginning. ” [20]
