Lorenz Sebastian Josef MAUTNER (born on March 25th, 1914 in Vienna), had graduated at the Medical School at the University of Vienna on February 4th, 1938 with the academic degree 'Dr. med.'.
In times of Nazism he was deprived of his academic degree on July 14th, 1942 with the racist argument, that he as a Jew was not considered dignified an academic degree of a German university ('eines akademischen Grades einer deutschen Hochschule unwürdig').
It took 13 years since the deprivation - and a very long time since the end of Nazism - until the regranting of the doctorate took finally place on May 15th, 1955.
