Gustav Adolf Wolff

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gustav Adolf Wolff (also: Adolf Wolff , born September 17, 1819 in Lemgo , † November 17, 1878 in Cologne ) was a German journalist and publisher.

Life

Wolff studied law in Jena and Heidelberg and worked as a journalist for various newspapers on his return to Lemgo. In March 1848 he was one of the editors of the ' Wage ', which he left in June to become co-editor of the democratic paper ' Der Volksfreund ' from November (from the beginning of 1849 until the newspaper was banned in June 1850, Wolff was the sole editor) . Until 1862 he was editor of the 'Westfälische Zeitung' in Düsseldorf and Cologne.

As far as can be inferred from an entry under the name in the directory of participants, GA Wolff also took part for the workers' association in Hamm at the second democratic congress in Berlin in October 1848.

In a criminal case opened in 1850 because of an article published in 'Volksfreund', the editor Gustav Adolf Wolff was sentenced to six months of forced labor, which he served in Detmold in 1851.
