Pieter Endt

Educated as a political economist at the University of Zurich (dissertation, 1918), Endt published works on labor and the laboring classes in Indonesia as well as a sociology textbook. Under the pseudonyms "Herman Fairfax" and "Eduard Coenraads," he translated works by Shaw, Nietzsche, Hauptmann, and Maugham, and published two novels. A songwriter and singer, he toured the Dutch East Indies in 1916. He reviewed A Portrait in a Dutch literary journal and sent JJ the review, joking about "those queer dutch words." In the 1920s and early 1930s he became a teacher in the Netherlands.
