J. P. Stern

Joseph Peter Maria Stern, FBA (25 December 1920 – 18 November 1991) was an authority on German literature.

Born into a Jewish family, he was educated in Prague, Vienna and St. John's College, Cambridge, where he took his MA in 1947. During the war he served in the Czechoslovakian army in exile. He took up a lectureship at Bedford College, London, and then at Cambridge in 1952, returning to St. John's.

He was Professor of German at University College London from 1972 to 1986. A prolific scholar of nineteenth- and twentieth-century German literature, he wrote on Nietzsche, Kafka, Jünger, Rilke and Mann, and edited the series Landmarks in World Literature. One of his most influential works was On Realism (1973). He was also known for his study Hitler: The Führer and the People, which was translated into several languages.

He married Sheila McMullan (23 June 1922 – 16 November 2005) in 1944, having met her as a student in 1940.

He was cremated on 25 November 1991 at Cambridge Crematorium, and his ashes were interred at the Parish of the Ascension Burial Ground in Cambridge. His wife's ashes, following her cremation on 29 November 2005, are also interred there.
