The time for autobiographies has arrived. Interest in authentic life stories seems greater than ever, even greater than well written works of fiction, because readers begin to recognise that nothing is more fantastic than the complicated reality through which we are forced to make our way. Accounts of everyday life have long since become a source of historic insight, and even historians are beginning to admit that concrete vignettes of an autobiographer's life are often better able to portray what the past was really like. All of this holds true for the memoirs of Jakob Ludwig Heller, who lived in the Austro-Hungarian Empire during the 19th and 20th centuries. The records that he left behind reveal that nostalgic individuals were not far wrong in viewing the Empire, and its era as the quintessence of an intact world. Of course, things were not as peaceful and happy for everyone in the Danube monarchy, but compared with today's world, Jakob Ludwig Heller's milieu was a true idyll, where marriages endured, family ties were strong, hard work was rewarded, and people rejoiced over simple social gatherings.;Upbringing was strict, but caring, the children were well behaved, and earning a living was fun. Long live progress! The feeling that what he describes is lost forever is magnified further by the fact that he grew up in a Jewish, Central European milieu, where Jews perhaps did not live without tensions among neighbours of other faiths, but did live without being persecuted, robbed, and murdered. Not only Jewish readers will regret the loss of that normal way of life. Near the end of his memoirs, in retrospect the diarist complains about the inexplicable intrusions of lax morals, the disappearance of fixed norms, and the lack of the earlier, ever-present feeling of security and continuity. What would he say today? But what makes the reading of this simple story so rewarding, apart from the historic information, is the intelligent, humorous, warm-hearted man who is encountered on every page. His comments about the First World War are especially touching. Despite his extensive life experience, they betray his naive belief in Germany and Austria, in the government and the army.;He is convinced that the Central Powers fight for a just cause at a time when Karl Kraus is writing "The Last Days of Mankind". But in those days, the great satirist was still quite alone with his opinion. Most of the Jews, even most of the people, probably felt as did Jakob Ludwig Heller. And the waning of those certainties is the greatest tragedy of all, a sign of the insurmountable distance between our world and that of the past.

Dieser Buchtitel ist Teil des Digitalisierungsprojekts Springer Book Archives mit Publikationen, die seit den Anfangen des Verlags von 1842 erschienen sind. Der Verlag stellt mit diesem Archiv Quellen fur die historische wie auch die disziplingeschichtliche Forschung zur Verfugung, die jeweils im historischen Kontext betrachtet werden mussen. Dieser Titel erschien in der Zeit vor 1945 und wird daher in seiner zeittypischen politisch-ideologischen Ausrichtung vom Verlag nicht beworben.

Das Buch verfolgt den Zweck, das Verfahren in der Praxis von der Einleitung an bi zur endgiiltigen Erledigung zusammen hangend darzustellen. DaB die theoretischen Kenntnisse allein in der Praxis nicht ausreichen, zeigen die bereits seit langer Zeit bestehenden pri vaten und offiziellen Formularienbiicher. Allein Formularien iiber einzelne Erledigungen und Muster von Eingaben, mogen sie noch so gut gearbeitet sein, konnen nur als momentane Hilfsmittel in Betracht kommen und nie mals dasjenige bieten, was aus dem Studinm eines ganzen Aktes gewonnen werden kann, namlich den Uberblick iiber den organischen Zusammenhang zwischen Eingabe und Erledigung sowie Einsicht in den systematischen Aufbau eines Aktes und den Verlauf der darin behandelten Angelegenheit. Diesem Zwecke sollen die vorliegenden Aktenmuster dienen. Das Gesetz iiber das gerichtliche Verfahren auGer Streitsachen (Patent yom 9. August 1854, RGBl. Nr. 208) wurde durch das Rundesgesetz yom 2l. Dezember 1923, BGBl. Nr. 636, einschneidend novel liert. Dies bot Veranlassung, in dem vorliegenden Werke auch das novellierte Gesetz in der neuen Fassung aufzunehmen, so daB dieses Werk zugleich als eine durch die Beispielsammlung erlauterte Gesetzesausgabe verwendet werden kann. Von der Aufnahme der Stempel- und Gebiihrenvorschriften bei den einzelnen Aktenmustern wurde abgesehen, weil diese Vorschriften sehr haufigen A. nderungen unterliegen."
