Life

Eduard Kulke was the son of a rabbi and attended the yeshiva . From 1853 he studied mathematics, physics and later German language and literature at the Polytechnic in Vienna and from 1854 in Prague. He broke off his studies and worked in 1858/59 as a teacher at the Israelite school in Pécs . Kulke moved back to Vienna and subsequently worked as a journalist and writer.

Kulke wrote in Jewish publications such as the Allgemeine Zeitung des Judentums (AZF) and the Wiener Jahrbuch für Israeliten . Literary role models were Berthold Auerbach and Aaron Bernstein , but above all Leopold Kompert . Kulke was friends with Friedrich Hebbel .

He wrote music reviews for the newspaper Das Vaterland and was a Wagnerian .

Kulke published stories, humoresques and sketches. His subjects were village stories, rural Jewry and, following Kompert's example, ghetto stories.
