He was aGerman writer politician.After the Nazis gained power in 1933, Dinter attempted to re-join the NSDAP. He was rebuffed and the Gestapo intensified its surveillance of him and even arrested him for a short while. Heinrich Himmler banned Dinter's "Deutsche Volkskirche" in 1937. Two years later the Reichsschrifttumskammer, Nazi Germany's official writers' association, expelled Dinter, effectively banning him from publishing anything, as one had to be a member to do so. In 1942, he was brought before a Special Court (Sondergericht) in Freiburg im Breisgau to be tried for an offence. In 1945, he was sentenced by a Denazification court in Offenburg to a fine of 1000 Reichsmark.
