Life

Rackwitz studied history and English at the Christian-Albrechts-Universität zu Kiel (CAU). In 1991 he became active in the Corps Holsatia . After two semesters abroad in 1993/94 at the University of Stirling , he completed his studies in 1998 with the 1st state examination for high school teaching and the Magister Artium. With the support of a doctoral scholarship from the CAU and the German Academic Exchange Service , he carried out research in Edinburgh from 1999 to 2003 . For his doctoral thesis he researched the travelogues from the Scottish Highlands and Hebrides in the early modern period. In 2004 he was awarded a Dr. phil. PhD . As a historian, he has since devoted himself to the history of Kiel and Schleswig-Holstein in the 19th and 20th centuries. One focus is the Schleswig-Holstein survey , in which his corps played a major role. Other focal points of research are the life of the civilian population in Kiel during World War I and the Kiel sailors' uprising in November 1918. At the same time, Rackwitz participated in the digitization and indexing of the picture bequest of the Kiel press photographer Friedrich Magnussen (1914–1987).
