FOLIO III · ORT
Zurich is the largest Swiss city and the place of death of several émigré representatives of the Austrian School. Siegmund Feilbogen, Hermann Schwarzwald and Vera C. Smith Lutz all died here.
Siegmund Feilbogen died here, in the largest Swiss city, in 1928. He had emigrated to Switzerland in 1915, during the First World War, and worked until the end of his life as a writer, translator and editor. Hermann Schwarzwald likewise died here in 1939, barely a year after fleeing Austria to join his wife. She had used a stay abroad six months earlier to emigrate. Vera C. Smith Lutz, too, died in the largest city in Switzerland. She had moved here in 1951 from Princeton, across the Atlantic, with her husband Friedrich Lutz, who became a professor at the University of Zurich, and she continued her academic work.
