Emil Ramin (14.11.1885 - 23.02.1963) German writer in chess

Emil Ramin came from the Arbeiterschach movement. Ramin had written part one of an article decrying the politicization of "worker's chess" which was quite prophetic, but had to publish part two in the communist chess journal, leading to his expulsion. He was also the editor of two chess columns in worker's newspapers that appeared in Stuttgart. He devoted himself to spreading problem chess and thereby wrote delightful essays. His book "Im Wunderland des Schachproblems" (1958) remained well-known.

 Emil Ramin was a regular collaborator of the magazine "Problem", and had his column "Raminova stranica / Ramins Schachecke" published in Serbo-Croatian and German.
