This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.Max Bredig (1902-1977) writes to Ernst A. Hauser (1896-1956) about Hauser's recent response to Wolfgang Ostwald's (1883–1943) obituary. Bredig posits that Ostwald either "behaved like or became a Nazi under the Hitler regime" and that this should have been noted in his obituary. Bredig includes evidence of this in his letter such as quotes from Ostwald's speeches and times he had been seen wearing a swastika.
Bredig ends the letter by praising Wolfgang Ostwald's father, Wilhelm Ostwald (1853-1932), who was close to Bredig's own father.
