Wpływowy brat Izydor (Baruch, Izrael) Schulz
Journal Title: Schulz/Forum - Year 2013, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
After a Roman Catholic baptism, Izydor Schulz became an important member of the municipal board of Drogobych, cooperating with the Mayor Rajmund Jarosz. At that time, still before World War I, he designed and constructed a number of large ground oil containers, much needed during the oil boom in Borislav and the neighboring villages. Between the world wars, Izydor Schulz was one of the top managers in the Polish oil industry, interested also in the cinema. He regularly supported his parents and younger brother who stayed in Drogobych and found a teacher’s job at the local grammar school for boys. Without Izydor’s help, Bruno Schulz would not have published his first collection of short stories, Cinnamon Shops. After his brother’s sudden and premature death, he remembered him dearly in his letters to friends and acquaintances.
