Heinrich Hanke

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Heinrich (Hennak) Hanke, teacher and vice-principal , (born April 1, 1906 in Bentorf ; † April 21, 1968 in Lockhausen (Bad Salzuflen) ), was a local and dialect poet from Lippe.

He was born the son of a shoemaker. After completing a commercial apprenticeship, he worked in various companies in Varel, Hanover, Mannheim, Berlin and Braunschweig until 1939. He took part in the Second World War from 1939 to 1945. From 1947 he attended the Pedagogical Academy in Detmold and graduated as a teacher. At the elementary school in Lockhausen (today part of Bad Salzuflen) he was most recently deputy principal . In addition, he also performed the duties of the registrar. He died here in 1968. In Bentorf , part of the municipality of Kalletal , the Hennak-Hanke-Weg reminds of him, while in Lemgo he is remembered with the naming of the Hennak-Hanke-Straße.

Heinrich Hanke had already written numerous stories and chats in Low German since 1929 . These appeared partly in book form in collections such as “Kinner van'n Süll” (1931) and “Pünjeshagen, Vertellsel up lippsk Platt” (1963, expanded in 1976), in which stories and anecdotes from a fantasy village in Lippe are published. In the Ziegler novel "The Eternal Wandering", published posthumously in 1985 in High German, he vividly describes the life and experience of the " Lippe Ziegler ", migrant workers who had no other option to look after their families in poor Lippe. In addition, Hanke left behind several Low German plays.
