Mit Daten zu Leben und Werk, exklusiv verfasst von der Redaktion der Zeitschrift für Literatur TETX+KRITIK."Gefährlich ist nur das unterdrückte Wort, das verachtete rächt sich, das ausgesprochene ist nie vergebens." Ludwig Börne war Wegbereiter des modernen Feuilletons und des politischen Journalismus. Sein Eintreten für Demokratie und Pressefreiheit erregte den Argwohn der Zensur, der er mit Satire und Witz begegnete. In den berühmten Briefen aus Paris durchstreift Börne seine Gegenwart mit scharfem Blick, verknüpft Literaturkritik mit Zeitdiagnose. Dieses Lesebuch lädt dazu ein, den Facettenreichtum und die Aktualität von Börnes Texten neu zu entdecken.

Karl Ludwig Börne was born on 6 May 1786, at Frankfurt am Main to a Jewish family. He was the son of Jakob Baruch, a banker.
Börne and his brothers were privately tutored by Jacob Sachs, and later by Rector Mosche. At age fourteen, he studied medicine with Professor Hetzel at Gießen. After a year, he was sent to study medicine at Berlin under a physician, Markus Herz, whose house he lived in. At age sixteen, Baruch became infatuated by his patron's thirty-eight-year-old wife, Henriette Herz. After her husband died in 1803, he expressed his adoration in a series of letters. When he enrolled at Halle University, she was influential in his boarding with Professor Reil. He studied constitutional law and political science at University of Heidelberg and Giessen. There he received his PhD in 1809 with the dissertation Ueber die Geometrische Vertheilung der Staatsgebiete
On his return to Frankfurt, now constituted as a grand duchy under the sovereignty of the prince bishop Karl von Dalberg, he received (1811) the appointment of police actuary in that city.
In 1814 and he had to resign his post due to his ethnicity. Embittered by the oppression suffered by Jews in Germany, he took to journalism and edited the Frankfurt liberal newspapers Staatsristretto and Die Zeitschwingen.
In 1818 he converted to Lutheran Protestantism, changing his name from Loeb Baruch to Ludwig Börne. From 1818 to 1821 he edited Die Wage, a paper distinguished by its lively political articles and its powerful but sarcastic theatrical criticisms. This paper was suppressed by the police, and in 1821 Börne took a pause from journalism and led a quiet life in Paris, Hamburg and Frankfurt.
After the July Revolution (1830), he hurried to Paris, expecting to find society nearer to his own ideas of freedom. Although to some extent disappointed in his hopes, he did not look any more kindly on the political condition of Germany; this lent additional zest to the brilliant satirical letters (Briefe aus Paris, 1830–1833, published Paris, 1834), which he began to publish in his last literary venture, La Balance, a revival of Die Wage. The Briefe aus Paris was Börne's most important publication, and a landmark in the history of German journalism. Its appearance led him to be regarded as a leading thinker in Germany.
He died in Paris in 1837.
