Ludwig August Ritter von Frankl-Hochwart (3 February 1810 – 12 March 1894) was a Jewish Bohemian-Austrian writer and poet.
Biography
Frankl was born on 3 February 1810, in Chrast, Bohemia. His brothers were David Bernhard Frankl (1820-1859), merchant and founder of the Commercial Academy in Prague, and Wilhelm Frankl (1821-1893), imperial and municipal councilor who established the Vienna trade schools and the Vienna Central Cemetery.[1]
He was a friend of Nikolaus Lenau. He also corresponded with Petar II Petrovic Njegos of Montenegro before he died in 1851.
Frankl's Gusle, Serbische Nationallieder was dedicated to Vuk Karadžić's daughter in 1852. His object was to present some of the songs in Vuk which had not yet been translated,[clarification needed] and he took the greatest pains to reproduce in German the metrical effect of the Serbian original.[2]
He died on 12 March 1894, in Vienna.
Family
Ludwig August Frankl was married to Paula Wiener (born 1834), the daughter of Prague merchant and banker Hermann Wiener (died 1874) and his wife Therese von Lämel; their son was the neurologist Lothar von Frankl-Hochwart (1862-1914). A nephew of his was musicologist Paul Josef Frankl (1892-1976) who was professor at the Academy of Music in Vienna. He was a distant relative of Talmud scholar and rabbi Zecharias Frankel.[3]
