Who is Raphael Basch?
Raphael Basch, also Rafael Basch was a Bohemian-Austrian writer and politician. He was the father of Victor Basch.
At the first disturbances preliminary to the Revolution of 1848, he went to Vienna, and took an active part in the insurrection. Here he founded the "Reichstagblatt", which he continued at Kremsier until the dissolution of the Constitutional Assembly, in March, 1849. He then joined the staff of the "Oesterreichische Post" of Vienna, which he represented at Berlin; subsequently he was the Paris correspondent of several papers. He returned to Vienna in 1855 and assumed the editorship of the "Oesterreichische Zeitung," occupying a position of importance as the official mouthpiece of the minister Bruck, the opponent of the clerical minister Bach. After the promulgation of the constitution of February 26, 1861, he acted in a similar capacity to the Schmerling ministry, with which political party he remained connected until its fall.
Until 1875 Basch was engaged only in economic questions, but in that year he returned to political journalism.
