#104 Der Fall Schinderhannes – 1803 war mehr Räubermythos...

What this episode covers

Als Johannes Bückler, genannt Schinderhannes, 1803 in Mainz hingerichtet wird, endet sein Leben. Doch seine Geschichte beginnt erst richtig. In dieser Folge erzählen wir vom Aufstieg eines jungen Viehdiebs zum berüchtigten Räuber, von brutalen Überfällen, Morden und einem spektakulären Prozess – und vom historischen Kontext aus Krieg, Armut und schwacher Strafverfolgung im Hunsrück und den Rheinlanden. War Schinderhannes nun Räuberhauptmann, Robin Hood vom Rhein, oder gewalttätiger Serienverbrecher, dessen spätere Verklärung seine Opfer – besonders viele jüdische Händler und Familien – ausblendet? Begleitet uns, wie wir in dieser Episode dem Räubermythos nachgehen und herausfinden was Realität und was Legende ist. **// Quellen & Shownotes //** - Das Rheinland unter den Franzosen, https://wir-rheinlaender.lvr.de/rheinland_franzosen/ - Becker, J.

This was the Fortnightly Poetry project for October 16, 2011.Chesterton was a large man, standing 6 feet 4 inches (1.93 m) and weighing around 21 stone (130 kg; 290 lb). His girth gave rise to a famous anecdote. During World War I a lady in London asked why he was not 'out at the Front'; he replied, 'If you go round to the side, you will see that I am.' On another occasion he remarked to his friend George Bernard Shaw: "To look at you, anyone would think a famine had struck England". Shaw retorted, "To look at you, anyone would think you have caused it". P. G. Wodehouse once described a very loud crash as "a sound like Chesterton falling onto a sheet of tin."( Summary from Wikipedia ) Nightline: War with Iran ABC News Late-night television's award-winning news program featuring anchors Juju Chang and Byron Pitts.
