Heinrich Giske

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Joachim Friedrich Jakob Christian Heinrich Giske (born October 28, 1853 in Dammereez, today part of Dersenow , † June 1915 in Lübeck ) was a German classical philologist and educator.

Life

Heinrich Giske came from a family of teachers. He was initially tutored by his father Friedrich Giske (1807–1886); at the age of 14 he entered the grand-ducal teachers' college in Neukloster . As a junior teacher he came to Röbel ; at the same time he received lessons in Latin and Greek. From autumn 1873 he was able to visit the Katharineum in Lübeck , which he graduated from high school at Easter 1876 . He studied Classical Philology, German Philology and History at the Universities of Rostock and Berlin.

In early 1881 he received his doctorate in Rostock with a dissertation on the life and work of Johannes Tzetzes , supervised by Richard Foerster , and towards the end of the year he passed his state examination in Rostock.

From Easter 1882 onwards he worked as a scientific assistant teacher at the Katharineum in Lübeck, and Michaelis in 1883 he was permanently employed as a senior teacher. In 1901 the Senate awarded him the title of professor . At the end of 1907 he was retired.

In 1892 he was a co-founder and first chairman of the Lübeck section of the German and Austrian Alpine Club .

Giske was Thomas Mann's Latin teacher ; this is said to have used elements from Giske for the figure of the suitier Andreas Giesecke (for whom Karl Peter Klügmann is otherwise considered a model) in the Buddenbrooks .
