Wikipedia
Rudolf Borchardt (b. 9 June 1877 in Königsberg, Kingdom of Prussia, German Empire; d. 10 January 1945 in Trins, Ostmark, German Reich) was a German essayist, poet and cultural historian. He is perhaps best known for translating Dante's Divine Comedy into his own type of German language. The German classical philologist Ernst A. Schmidt has called Borchardt "one of the most problematic figures in early twentieth-century European cultural history" and "one of Germany's finest poets."
