KAFKA, Franz (1883-1924)
Autograph greeting signed ('Herzliche Grüße / Franz Kafka') to Dr Hugo Bergmann, also with a greeting to Bergmann and his wife signed by Max Brod, n.p. [Weimar], n.d. [late June/early July 1912].
In German. In pencil, on the verso of a picture postcard, 137 x 83mm, showing Carl August statue and the Fürstenhaus in Weimar; addressed in Brod's hand to Bergmann at the University Library, Prague (postmark obscured). Provenance: by descent.

Kafka and Max Brod in Weimar. Kafka's trip to Weimar with Max Brod in late June and early July 1912 was the fourth foreign holiday on which the two had embarked: the visit was to have momentous consequences, as it was in Weimar that Brod introduced Kafka to the publisher Kurt Wolff, who at the end of the year was to publish Kafka's first collection, Betrachtung, containing 18 stories written over the preceding eight years; the collection was dedicated to Brod. The recipient, Hugo Bergmann (1883-1975) had been a schoolfriend of Kafka's, and was close to Max Brod, whom he introduced to Zionism; Bergmann emigrated to Israel in 1920, where he was director of the Jewish National Library and a professor, and later dean, of the Hebrew University in Jerusalem.
