Introduction
|
|
|
This collection contains correspondence, mainly letters to the editor of Der Angriff, Fritz Zietlow, also internal correspondence and a number of publications. The only information on the provenance is a note from Alfred Wiener, in which he mentions that the material was brought over in February 1946 by LW Bondy (who had a long association with the Wiener Library).
Biographical notes
Fritz Zietlow was born on 24 August 1900. He was a law student, one of the early Nazi party activists, who became a Nazi party member in July 1925. He served the party as Gaugeschäftsführer in Kiel and was a member of the Prussian state council from March 1932. After his legal studies in Kiel and Greifswald he began working as an editor on the Schlesischer Zeitung then on Der Angriff. At the end of 1932 he became the chief editor of the official party paper, the Ostfriesischen Tageszeitung.
Despite being regarded as ideal material for a position as lecturer at the Reichspresseschule, and being nominally included on the staff of that organisation in 1937, he never took up the post. It is thought that this may have been because he was fired by Goebbels from his post on Der Angriff for stealing from the petty cash.
Nothing further is known about his life.
Arrangement
There is no discernible order to the arrangement, which consists of draft articles, letters to Fritz Zietlow as editor of Der Angriff and Schlesischer Tageszeitung, and printed leaflets all dated 1931-1932.
All of the material is in German.
