      Note: Max was the manager of the family business, a large damask linens weaving factory, S. Fränkel Feinweberei in Neustadt. In that era Silesian Linens had the reputation that we now put on Irish Linens. He was a noted collector of books by Silesian authors, especially Gerhardt Hauptmann.*see Max and Klaus Pinkus in Fragen nach Robert Musil. Max was a close friend of Gerhart Hauptmann and the play "Vor Sonnenuntergang" is based on Max's experience. When Max died, Gerhard Hauptmann and his wife were the only non-Jewish people who had the courage to attend his funeral. Hauptmann was so impressed with the atmosphere that he wrote about it an one act play "Finsterniss". *Not sure of any relation to Max Pinkus of Služovice who (owned?) the village until 1923?

      Note: see Dr. Ehrlich's Magic Bullet .pdf Warner Brothers movie or Paul on Encyclopedia and his biography... He was a German physician, biochemist, 1908 Nobel Prize winner and discoverer of the first effective treatment for Syphilis (prior to penicillin). Paul married Hedwig Pinkus, daughter of a prosperous Textile industrialist of Neustadt, Upper Silesia. Paul was born into a comfortable, lively household in a country town in Prussian Silesia, about twenty miles south of Breslau. He was the only son and fourth child of Ismar Ehrlich, a respected but somewhat eccentric Jewish distillier, innkeeper, and lottery collector, and his wife Rosa Weigert, an industrious woman of notable intelligence, charm, and organizational talent. Her cousin, Carl Weigert, the distinguished pathologist, was only nine years older than Paul, and the two became close friends. Besides many of his mothers characteristics the boy had his father’s excitability and interjection-ridden manner of speech, and perhaps inherited certain aptitudes from his paternal grandfather, Heimann? Ehrlich, a prosperous liqueur merchant, who collected an extensive private library and later in life gave lectures on science to fellow citizens of Strehlen... Ehrlich’s name was a household word in Germany until the Nazis came to power when they persecuted his widow and confiscated his property... another biography & Paul and The Hebrew University .pdf

Landau got his education in the French Lycee, and at 16 he entered the University in Berlin. At the age of 22 Landau received his doctorate, and two years later the "Habilitation", granting him the right to teach at the University. His topic was analytic number theory, and he soon became a leading expert in the field, a very prolific writer, and a successful teacher too. It was only natural that in 1908, when Göttingen University looked for a successor to Hermann Minkowski, they offered him the chair...
