Adolph Ditlev Jørgensen

Life

From 1863 he was a high school teacher at the Flensburg Old High School , in 1864 he went to Copenhagen . In 1869 he became assistant at the Reichsarchiv, in 1883 secret archivist, and in 1889 he rose to head of the Danish archive administration. Its reorganization, including the establishment of three provincial archives, count as its lasting merit. Politically, he was considered one of the most eloquent protagonists of the pro-Danish, anti-German movement in Denmark. The extensive publication activities of the member of the Royal Danish Academy of Sciences had a formative effect on the subsequent Danish historiography.
