Hermann fresh beer
Hermann Frischbier (born January 10, 1823 in Königsberg i. Pr. , † December 8, 1891 ibid) was a German teacher and regional historian of East Prussia .
Life
After he had passed the exam at the teacher’s seminar in 1842, Frischbier was a teacher in Guttstadt and Heilsberg and, since 1853, in Königsberg. From 1872 to 1889 he was the rector of the old town girls' school.
Grown up in a bricklayer's house that spoke Low German , he was familiar with the language and the customs and traditions of East Prussia . His treatises appeared in the Altpreußische monthly , the journal for German philology , in Die deutscher Mundarten , in the correspondence sheet of the Association for Low German Linguistics , in the scientific monthly sheets and in the folklore journals Am Urdsbrunnen and Am Urquell . With numerous employees, Frischbier significantly promoted Prussian folklore .
"Through them (Frischbier's works) the old Prussian people's treasure trove of proverbs, rhymes and provincialisms is by and large exhausted."
The Masurian Jan Karol Sembrzycki praised Frischbier's dedication to Polish folklore - even "in times of the grimest Poland-eating" - although Frischbier barely spoke the Polish language .
