Life
Albert Friedrich was a son of the electoral councilor Simon Mellemann (1520–1588) and his wife Eva, a sister of the lawyer at Rostock University and later Hamburg city counsel Adam Tratziger (1523–1584). He attended school in Stettin and studied at the Brandenburg University in Frankfurt . Then he went on an educational trip through Germany, Italy, England and France.
He tried to win the favor of the Brandenburg Elector with his poems, but soon went to relatives in Holstein in an inheritance matter. His date of death has not yet been determined; Seidel's portrait gives the year 1593.
