Georg Quabbe
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Georg Quabbe (10 March 1887 – 17 July 1950) was a German lawyer and essayist.[1][2]
Georg Quabbe was born in 1887 in Breslau (now Wrocław), the son of Ferdinand Quabbe, a merchant from the same city, and Anna Naundorf. After graduating with a PhD in law, he worked as a judicial trainee in Breslau. In 1912, he married Erika Auguste Margarete Bucksch, a merchant's daughter. The couple divorced on 5 October 1915.[1] He married his second wife, Elisabeth von Heyden, on 19 May 1922.[2]
In 1927, he wrote the essay Tar a Ri. Variationen über ein konservatives Thema ("Tar a Ri. Variations on a conservative theme"), embodying the moderate section of the Conservative Revolution. He is considered by Armin Mohler to be one of the most influential thinkers of the latter movement.[3]
On October 17, 1946, Quabbe, who had refused to collaborate with the Nazis, was appointed Attorney General (Generalstaatsanwalt) of the State of Hesse by Georg-August Zinn, Hesse's Minister of Justice at the time.[4] He died in 1950 in Frankfurt of a stroke.[2]
