life and work

Friedrich Wilhelm Fricke (Frikke) studied from 1833 to 1837 at the University of Göttingen , where he joined the philosopher Johann Friedrich Herbart by name . According to his pedagogical ideas, Fricke founded an educational institution in Göttingen in 1837 and headed the secondary school in Mönchengladbach from 1841 to 1852 , with which he in turn connected a large educational institution.

Resigned for health reasons, Fricke stayed longer in Belgium and France and settled in Wiesbaden in 1854, where he gradually took over as rector the management of the secondary school for girls and part-time part in the examination of candidates for the higher teaching post or teaching in the ducal family.

In 1870 he resigned his offices and retired to his Maienbrunn estate near Bamberg, which he sold in 1875 to move back to Wiesbaden.

His main work is education and teaching (Mannheim 1881/1882). Fricke was also an enthusiastic advocate for purely phonetic spelling; In 1876 he founded the Association for Simplified German Spelling and its magazine Reform (Bremen 1877 to 1879), and in 1885 the Association for the Dissemination of Latin Script .
