Julius Stettenheim

Julius Stettenheim (born November 2, 1831 in Hamburg , † October 30, 1916 in Lichterfelde ) was a German writer.

Life

His father was an art dealer . Stettenheim did a commercial apprenticeship and after his father's death 1857-60 studied literature, philosophy and history at the Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität zu Berlin . Even as a student he wrote humor , antics and singing games . He returned to Hamburg in 1860 and founded the humorous-satirical paper Hamburger Wespen in 1862 . It was called Berlin Wasps from 1868 and German Wasps from 1891 .

In 1867 he moved to Berlin. He worked for Kladderadatsch and other newspapers and magazines, and since 1893 has been the editor of the "Wippchen", a supplement to the "Small Journal". He was a co-founder of the Free Stage , which did not prevent him from mocking naturalism in satires and parodies ( Fuhrmann Henschel ). With his pun , he also wrote aphorisms ( Nose and other wisdom , 1904). His editor Wippchen is famous for delivering fictional war reports from the idyllic Bernau near Berlin of the real war events of the time - this is where the popular Berlin saying do not do Wippchen! when someone cuts too obviously. Stettenheim discovered the poetic qualities of the customs officer Karl Anton Theodor Rethwisch . He published his “German-Danish” poems in the Hamburger Wespen. His collective edition compiled in 1865 was reprinted in 1914.

A grandson of Stettenheim was Curt Valentin , who from 1937 ran an art gallery in New York .
