Heinrich Joseph Maximilian Johann Maria von Brentano di Tremezzo (20 June 1904 – 14 November 1964), known professionally asHeinrich von Brentano, was a German politician of theChristian Democratic Union (CDU). He served asFederal Minister for Foreign Affairs from 1955 to 1961.

Personal life

[edit]

Brentano was born inOffenbach am Main,[1] the son of theCentre politician Otto von Brentano, a member of the 1919Weimar National Assembly. TheBrentano family, ofItalian (Lombard) origin, had settled in theLandgraviate of Hesse-Darmstadt in the 17th century and were recognized as Hessian nobles, with close contact to important figures of theGerman Romanticism, includingGoethe,Savigny andArnim. He was related to famous German poets such asClemens Brentano (1778–1842) andBettina von Arnim (1785–1859). The authorBernard von Brentano (1901–1964) was his elder brother.

Upon hisAbitur degree in 1922, Heinrich von Brentano studiedjurisprudence at theUniversity of Munich and took his first and secondStaatsexamen in 1925 and 1929. He received his doctorate from theUniversity of Giessen and from 1932 worked as a lawyer inDarmstadt, from 1943 until 1945 as aprosecutor inHanau.

Brentano remained a bachelor throughout his life, living with his mother up to her death in 1948. In 1961, rumors circulated about his homosexuality, to which Adenauer drily replied: "He has not hit on me yet."[2]

Brentano died of cancer at the age of 60. He was buried atWaldfriedhof Darmstadt.

Political career

AfterWorld War II, Brentano was one of the founders of the Christian Democratic Union inHesse and became a member of theLandtag of Hesse in 1946, from 1947 as chairman of the parliamentary group.

He also attended the proceedings of theParlamentarischer Rat assembly drafting theBasic Law for the Federal Republic of Germany. In thefederal elections of 1949, he obtained a seat in the West GermanBundestag parliament by directly winning the mandate of theBergstraße constituency. In 1952 he and other CDU MPs advocated the implementation of aplurality voting system instead of thepersonalized proportional representation concept, though to no avail. In the federal parliament, he served as head of the CDU/CSU faction from 1949 to 1955 and again from 1961 until his death.

A member of theEuropean Movement Germany, the EuropeanCommon Assembly and theParliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, Brentano was an important figure in the foundation of theEuropean Economic Community (EEC).

After the Alliedoccupation statute had been lifted in 1955, he was appointedForeign Minister of Germany at the suggestion of ChancellorKonrad Adenauer, who prior had filled the office himself. Brentano resigned when Adenauer had to form acoalition government with theFree Democratic Party (FDP) after thefederal election of 1961 and had to accept the appointment of a FDP state secretary in theForeign Office. He was succeeded by his party fellowGerhard Schröder.
