from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bernhard Baader (born April 30, 1790 in Mannheim ; † January 6, 1859 in Karlsruhe ) was a German official and collector of Baden sagas .

Life

Baader initially worked as a civil servant in Wertheim , where he met Amalie Baader, who later became the writer and founder of the association . The marriage took place in 1823. Baader was a district councilor of the district government of the Seekreis in Constance and in 1832 took up a position as a councilor in the tax office in Karlsruhe. In 1847 he was promoted to the position of Secret Finance Councilor in the Chamber of Accounts and retired in 1854.

In the 1830s, like many of his contemporaries, he published examples of legends in magazines such as Mone's Anzeiger. August Schnezler took some of these legends into his Badisches Sagenbuch , published in 1846 .

In 1851 Baader himself presented folk tales from the state of Baden and the neighboring areas as the result of his twenty years of collecting , which he said he had compiled from oral tradition. In 1859 a sequel appeared with "newly collected" sagas.

Honors

In 1843 Baader received the Knight's Cross of the Order of the Zähringer Lion .
