M In the end, the world of the real triumphs over the falsehood. The poet recognizes the way to this in unity. Thus, in the end he calls to us his book: *We have to make order among ourselves. Order is mur in unity possible. Therefore let us be unanimous!" In addition to his narratives and novels, there are also a number of writings by Ernst Frank, which comment on the history and literary history and the political history of the Sudetenland. In the Goethe year 1932, the poet gave us his imerlich and externally very clean little book "Goethe im Elbogner Ländchen", which rises into the sphere of the poetic in the portrayal of love between Goethe and Ulrike von Levetzow: The bffentliche Geheimis. How did Frank's "Short Settlement History of the Sudetenlünder" serve as the basis for a life-awareness of the history of the Sudete Germans, in order to make them mature, to take a clear position on their questions of life from history? The author of the book "The Silver Lion in the Red Field" in his hometown of Karlovy Vary, however, has set an imperishable time of thought.In thirty-three parts, he lashes, and in part short stories, Ernst Frank takes us through the Gesch@ ee eiger hand to select the episodes, g Karlovies and its cultural development of decisive importance, she creates artistically in noble language. In 1934, at Begim d es sudetendcutschen Frei= heitskampfes, Ernst Frank put his Karlovy Vary cultural dogmas to direct the grey present into a brighter future and already at that time he emphasized the historically conditioned Zusarmenhang of the Sprudelstadt with the *yich. No one else should be called to tell the story of the Su- ueten German struggle for freedom, as Ernst Frank did in the beautiful book "Sudctenland - Deutsches Land" that has already appeared in noher editions. In five great sections, in often wonderful soul-steep language, he guided us through the great epochs of sudetendeutic history and clearly shows the historically indispensable bond of Sudetenland with the empire of all Germans. Particularly valuable is the fourth section, which brings significant immersions s a d do d n d a d , and from the history of the DNsAP. and the SdP. Thus Ernst Frank shows us in this book, how out of work and sacrifice our victory arose, that also freeness and freedom can mean eternally new commitment. To pass this holy knowledge on to those who carry the kingdom h to eternal power and glory, shall be our supreme task. Yod-1J~138
