Arno Schmidt (January 18, 1914 in Hamburg - June 3, 1979 in Celle) was a German author and translator. Schmidt was a strict individualist, almost a solipsist. Disaffected by his experience of the Third Reich he had an extremely pessimistic world view. In Schwarze Spiegel he describes his utopia as an empty world after an anthropogenic apocalypse. Although he was a strict atheist according to him the world was created by a monster Leviathan whose predatory nature was passed on to humans. <a href

Arno Schmidt, from an illustration by Jens Rusch [de] for his story Kühe in Halbtrauer Arno Schmidt's house in Bargfeld Schmidt's grave in the garden of his house in Bargfeld Arno Schmidt Foundation [de] Arno Schmidt ( German: [ˈaʁno ʃmɪt] ; 18 January 1914 – 3 June 1979) was a German author and translator. He is little known outside of German-speaking areas, in part because his works present a formidable challenge to translators. Although not among Germany's most popular authors, critics and writers often consider him to be one of the most important German-language writers of the 20th century.
