He was born in 1903 with the font The Countess Dolores. A contribution to the history of German intellectual life in the age of romanticism to the Dr. phil. PhD .

He worked as a secretary in the Leipzig Free Student Union and wrote numerous articles in the free student press.

He initially worked as an assistant teacher at the Carola and Nicolai Grammar School in Leipzig from 1904 to 1906 , and from 1906 to 1911 he worked for BG Teubner Verlag , on which he published a work on the company's history and wrote Chapters I to V. From 1913 he was involved in building the newly founded city museum in Leipzig. Schulze also worked as a freelance writer and, for example, wrote articles for the General Lexicon of Fine Artists from Antiquity to the Present .

When Albrecht Kurzwelly died in 1917 as a result of a war injury, Schulze took over his position as 2nd head of the board of the City History Museum.
