Remarks

  1. ^ Johann Friedrich Ranke (born March 27, 1821 in Zangenberg) was born to poor parents not far from Zeitz. Although he was gripped by the eagerness to learn from a very early age, he was originally supposed to be a weaver. However, after training at the teachers' college in Weißenfels and successfully passing his exams in 1841, he became a teacher for toddler teachers at the deaconess house in Kaiserswerth. After a few years he also took over the training of elementary teachers and governesses there. A large number of writings were created here that deal with pedagogy for young children. So the stories for toddler schools (3rd edition 1857), Christian songs for school and home. (Bädeker, Elberfeld, 1. Heft, 2. Aufl. 1860, 3. Aufl. 1862, 11. Aufl. 1894; 32 S.), Biblische Historien , 24 Biblische Historien for the first religious instruction (4th ed. 1884) and Die Raising and employing young children in toddler schools and families. (8th ed. 1892). In 1869 he became an inspector and teacher at the rescue center in Schildesche near Bielefeld, with which a preparation institute and a teachers' seminar was connected at the same time. Soon, however, he devoted himself to the education of small children again when he accepted an appointment as director of the Oberlinhaus in what was then Nowawes (now Babelsberg) near Potsdam. After health reasons compelled him to stop his professional and literary activities in 1878, he retired. With his second wife he moved to Goslar near his children in 1886, where he died on January 24, 1892. (cf.
