Walter Brecht
Walter Brecht (20 June 1900 – 27 September 1986) was a German scientist and longtime lecturer at the Institut für Papierfabrikation in the Technische Universität Darmstadt. He died in Darmstadt. Life Early life He was born in Augsburg to Berthold Friedrich Brecht and Wilhelmine Friederike Sophie (née Brezing; 1871–1920), their second son after the future playwright and poet Bertholt. Whilst Sophie was from a Pietist family, Berthold Friedrich was a Roman Catholic from Achern in the Black Forest, becoming a clerk at Augsburg's Haindl’sche Papierfabriken, rising to manager and then in 1914 its director. This allowed the Brecht family to finally move into one of the factory's 'Stiftungshäuser' or foundation houses. Sophie's father Josef Friedrich Brezing (1842–1922) was an official on the Royal Württemberg State Railways at Roßberg (now known as Wolfegg) on the Herbertingen–Isny line, opened just before Sophie's birth.

Johann Heinrich Merck
Johann Heinrich Merck (11 April 1741 – 27 June 1791), German author and critic, was born at Darmstadt, a few days after the death of his father, a chemist. He studied law at Gießen, and in 1767 was given an appointment in the paymaster's department at Darmstadt, and a year later himself became paymaster. For a number of years he exercised considerable influence upon the literary movement in Germany; he helped to found the ''Frankfurter gelehrte Anzeigen'' in 1772, and was one of the chief contributors to Nicolai's ''Allgemeine Bibliothek''. In 1773 he accompanied the Landgravine Karoline of Hesse-Darmstadt to Saint Petersburg, and on his return was a guest of the duke Charles Augustus of Weimar in the Wartburg. Unfortunate speculations brought him into pecuniary embarrassment in 1788, and although friends, notably Goethe, were ready to come to his assistance, his losses — combined with the death of five of his children — so preyed upon his mind that he committed suicide ...

Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei
The Nazi Party, officially the National Socialist German Workers' Party (german: Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei or NSDAP), was a far-right political party in Germany active between 1920 and 1945 that created and supported the ideology of Nazism. Its precursor, the German Workers' Party (; DAP), existed from 1919 to 1920. The Nazi Party emerged from the extremist German nationalist, racist and populist paramilitary culture, which fought against the communist uprisings in post–World War I Germany. The party was created to draw workers away from communism and into nationalism. Initially, Nazi political strategy focused on anti–big business, anti- bourgeois, and anti-capitalist rhetoric. This was later downplayed to gain the support of business leaders, and in the 1930s, the party's main focus shifted to antisemitic and anti-Marxist themes. The party had little popular support until the Great Depression. Pseudoscientific racist theories were ce ...
