Brigitte Reimann (July 21, 1933 - February 20, 1973) was a German author.

Life

Brigatte Reimann was born in Burg bei Magdeburg. After the Abitur, Reimann worked as a teacher. She began to write in 1955. As a write, she represented the Bitterfelder Weg which was authors should pursue through work to create a close contact to the people. She moved to Hoyerswerda in 1960 where she lived until 1968. In 1965, she would earn the Heinrich Mann Prize. During the years in Hoyerswerda, she worked in the combine Schwarze Pumpe power station. From these experiences she wrote the short novel Ankunft im Alltag in 1961. This work lent its name to the Ankunftliteratur, a writing form of East Germany. She was married to Siegfried Pitschmann between 1959 and 1964 with whom she created many works. She lived in Neubrandenburg from 1968 until 1973.

At the age of 39, Brigitte Reimann would die of cancer in East Germany. She left behind the unfinished novel Franziska Linkerhand. Particularly literary scientists harbor the suspicion that this work was particularly changed before the publication by orders of SED officials and would delete a few parts. The DEFA-Film Unser kurzes Leben about the themes of the novel would be performed and shot in 1981. One finished addition appeared after the transmitted script edited in 1988. The Afterwords by Withold Bonner is very detailed with the differences between the Editions from 1974 and the script. About 4% of the whole text would have been deleted, among them many passages which explained criticisms of East Germany. Brigitte Reimann posthumusly experienced hew 70th birthday in 2003 where she received numerous honors, among them would be a library named after her in Hoyerswerda and a Brigette Reimann Memorial Award in Neubrandenburg. The City Library of Burg had already carried the name "Brigette Reimann" since February 20, 1986. Her life would be filmed in the television production Hunger auf Leben with Martina Gedeck as the leading actress in 2004.
