Ludwig Friedrich Barthel


Ludwig Friedrich Barthel was a German writer.
Barthel served in the First World War and was a student in Munich. He was later an archivist there. His poems, for example "Tannenburg: Ruf und Requiem", and such stories as "Das Leben ruft", are influenced by the experience of war, which he made into a cult. Because of such tendencies, he venerated Nazism, which he celebrated in such extravagant hymns as "Dom aller Deutschen".
Barthel also edited the letters of his friend Rudolf Binding.
