Georg Schulze (pastor)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Georg Schulze (born December 30, 1807 in Clausthal , † September 2, 1866 in Scharzfeld ) was a German theologian , Germanist , author , editor and poet . The employee at the Grimm dictionary collected stories and poems in the language of the inhabitants around the Upper Harz water shelf , which led to the realization in the 19th century that the old dialect of the Upper Harz was comparable with the dialect of the Upper Saxon from the Ore Mountains .

Life

Georg Schulze was born in Clausthal as the son of the school teacher Johann Gottlieb Schulze and a daughter of the foreman Schottelius from Altenau . He attended high school in Clausthal and then studied theology from 1829 to 1834 at the Georg-August University of Göttingen , where he was also the Amanuensis of Jakob Grimm . Schulze then accepted the position of tutor to Lieutenant Colonel Schlueter in Brunshausen near Stade . He later became an assistant chaplain in Achelriede near Osnabrück .

Schulze had the resin poems in 1833 while he was still a student. Written according to a better orthography and provided with a word register and published. The work initially contained poems by various named people from the Upper Harz , which “ could be an inexhaustible treasure trove for the mining language”.

On March 1, 1842, Schulze was introduced as pastor of the Sankt Nikolai church in Altenau by the general superintendent Johann Ernst Wilhelm Gericke . He worked there until 1863. During this time he worked on some extensive works, including

  • the Grimm dictionary
  • Pictures and sketches from the Harze 1854 by Wilhelm Trenkner , the first travel guide about (Bad) Grund
  • the folk tales, fairy tales and legends of Lower Saxony , by Hermann Harrys , published in 1862, (contains 19 sagas collected by Schulze )
  • the resin legends of Heinrich Pröhle in which he calls the "oberharzische dialect piece:" Mr intended dn Teifel net porre "" published.

Through his acquaintance with the Clausthal bookseller, former city councilor and member of the state parliament, Adolf Schweiger (* 1803), Schulze became a main employee of the miners' weekly papers and the Harz-Berg calendar .

In the later, second edition of his "Harzgedichte ...", Schulze had supplemented the work with his own "Dialect poems in the Upper Harz dialect". One of these “ pious ” poems, for example, dealt with the “Polsterteich” (am / near Polsterberg ).

When King Georg visited Altenau, he sought the personal acquaintance of Georg Schulze. This ultimately means that Schulze still in 1863 a new led parish received, "the good pastor to Scharzfeld ". The inhabitants of this place already spoke the Low German language - but Schulze preferred the Upper Harz dialect. He greeted the inhabitants of the seven Upper Harz mining towns on the New Year of 1864:

"Bleed mer well, you druhm in Harz!"

When Georg Schulze came to an end almost simultaneously with the Kingdom of Hanover , he was transferred from Scharzfeld to Altenau and buried next to his first wife.
