POV, etc
[edit]I've removed the following text (it's commented out in the article):
- But Sachs's true end was a lot less spectacular and romantic. In 1945, before the advance of British troops, the prison of Fuhlsbüttel was evacuated and its inmates moved to the city of Kiel. The evacuation consisted of a long march that took many days to complete. On the third day of the journey, April 14, 1945, at 11:00 in the morning, Sachs became too exhausted to continue the march. He was killed by a bullet through his neck, and his body was abandoned at the side of the road with the body of another "companion of the same misfortune." Said Emmanuel Pollaud-Dulian about Sachs, "He does not show much compassion for the Jewish people, and deplores their resignation, which seems to be the dominant feature of their character. On the countryside, when passing a herd of sheep, he sighs sadly saying, 'the Jews...' The drama he plays does not escape him. But, trapped in his state of amorality, Sachs does not believe in the existence of innocent victims."
First, I can't find a source for any of it - I don't see this "Emmanuel Pollaud-Dulian" anywhere. Second, it's pretty WP:POV. If anyone can rewrite it to make sense, I would appreciate it! -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 17:48, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
Not sure what the logic that was behind removing all of this - it could have been cut not be POV. As for the source - this entire paragraph is a translation from the French entry under the author and is cited with a source on that page. Not much work went into researching this before the deletion. As a result we now have an article which gives no idea of how he may of actually died, instead it mentions a "story" of Sachs death. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.47.106.107 (talk) 16:11, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

Career
[edit]At present there is no mention whatsoever of Sachs's career as a writer in the Biography section of this article. That seems a bit odd. 850 C (talk) 18:03, 18 November 2014 (UTC)
- He was most famous for being a collaborateur for the Nazis. Translated from french wikipedia:
- In 1940, Maurice Sachs hosted a propaganda program on Paris Mondial, intended to convince the United States to go to war against Germany; the Nazis then put him on the list of anti-fascist propagandists to be arrested. During the debacle, he took refuge in Bordeaux before returning to Paris on June 29, 1940. There, he engaged in the black market until September 1942, when, compromised and ruined in various trafficking, he hid in Anceins in the 'Orne, in the company of Violette Leduc, whom he passes off as his wife.
- In November, at the end of his resources, he joined the STO and left for Hamburg. There he completed his memoirs, which would become La Chasse à courre. In April 1943, he offered there, under an assumed name, his services to the Gestapo as a spy and agent provocateur. He then leads an adventurous life, frequenting homosexual circles in Hamburg, the French of the LVF, living on schemes and scams, and denouncing the black market traffickers to his new masters, as well as the resistance fighters of the White Rose. from Hamburg. He lives with two young French collaborators, Philippe Monceau and Paul Martel. On November 16, 1943, after refusing to denounce a Jesuit father engaged in the Resistance, he was arrested by the Gestapo, tired of his thefts [Which?], His imprudence and his false reports. He is incarcerated with the members of his group at the Fuhlsbüttel concentration camp, where he continues to spy on and betray the members of the White Rose incarcerated with him.
