In a performance- and success-oriented profession like that of physicians, especially in an academic environment, a certain balance seems indispensable. In the past and today, recreational activities of physicians are very diverse. In addition to sports activities, musical and cultural interests have always been and still are widespread among physicians. In this context, a few physicians found the men's Allschlaraffia (R), which has its origins in Prague during the Habsburg Monarchy. Musicians and actors of the established German theater under artistic director Franz Thome (1807-1872) founded the Praga in 1859 as the nucleus of the Schlaraffia. In the decades that followed, their ideals of art, friendship and humor spread throughout German-speaking areas. It is still alive today on all five continents in the castles of the Schlaraffen. During the course of the First World War (1914-1918), two syphilidological physicians in Vienna, the dermatologist Walther Pick (1874-1932), born in Prague, and the internist Hermann Schlesinger (1866-1934), born in Bratislava, were members of the Schlaraffia Vindobona in Vienna. The following article focuses on the professional work of the knights Trotzki der Aristokratische and Nagel in der Not, and also gives a brief summary of the general history of syphilidology.
