Hans Heinrich Wilhelm Arendt

Hans Heinrich Wilhelm Arendt , HHW Arendt for short (born October 12, 1777 in Altona , † around 1840 in Hamburg ) was a German author and publisher of school and youth books.

Life

Hans Hinrich Wilhelm Arendt was a son of the tobacco manufacturer and trader Julius Christoph Arendt (baptized on April 15, 1738 in Altona; died on February 15, 1790 there) and his wife Sophia Louisa Elisabeth, née Lüdeke. His brother Martin Friedrich Arendt (1773-1823) was a well-known archaeologist.

Arendt attended a teacher training college in Kiel , where he passed the final exam on September 23, 1797. He then taught at several Altona private schools and wrote at a young age. His first work, the contribution to the promotion of the true catechetical teaching, shows that his Kiel seminar director Heinrich shaped him very much. Another example of the lessons at the Kiel Lehrerseminar impressions is the Hülfsbuch for parents and educators ... to remove.

After a short time, Arendt worked for Jürgen Kroymann , who died in 1820. Then he published his books. He wrote an extensive biography of the deceased for the seventh edition of Kroymann's charitable account book. Arendt also wrote arithmetic and language books and entertainment literature. After a few years he worked as an author in Altona and Hamburg and published both his works and those of other authors.

At the end of 1814 he was commissioned by the Meinischer Kammerrat and court book printer Johann Philipp Heinrich Hartmann (1765–1832) on behalf of Duchess Luise Eleonore von Sachsen-Meiningen to organize the ducal coin cabinet , which had been closed since 1796 and which Ludwig Bechstein took over in 1832 .

The highly gifted Arendt never lived in regular circumstances. The reason for this could be an alcohol disease, which Heinrich Zeise hinted at. Arendt was penniless and lonely at the end of his life. He died in the hospital of the Hamburg Freemasons.
