    149 Walter Höllerer (born 1922) was a professor of literature who became a
    key figure in the literary life of the Federal Republic. Akzente, founded by
    Hans Bender, was the forum of the Gruppe 47, which had been set up
    by Hans Werner Richter. The magazine was one of the few that refused
    to follow the fashion ‘of cultural rebellion with its slogan of “death to
    bourgeois literature” and its demands for political action instead of
    producing literature’ (Heinz Ludwig Arnold, ‘Über Kulturzeitschriften
    nach 1945’, p. 501f.).

    156 He stayed at the Hotel Erzherzzog Rainer in the Fourth District. The
    previous year, too, he had spent Easter in Vienna in order to give some
    lectures; he lived in the no less luxurious Parkhotel Schönbrunn in the
    Thirteenth District, Hietzinger Hauptstraße 12. Likewise, in April 1956,
    he had visited Vienna, where he had met Helene Berg for lunch in the
    Hotel Sacher. It was presumably through her that he met Andreas
    Razumovsky, a Viennese born in 1929. They shared interests in music
    theory and this led to a close friendship. When Razumovsky, who had
    been recommended to Adorno by Karl Korn of the Frankfurter Zeitung,
    returned the visit in Frankfurt in 1956, Adorno introduced him to his
    pupil Princess Dorothea Solms-Lich, who later became Razumovsky’s wife.
