Wolf-Heinrich von der Mülbe

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wolf-Heinrich Konrad Ludwig Hans von der Mülbe (born October 22, 1879 in Berlin , † April 30, 1965 in Munich ) was a German writer and translator.

Life

Wolf-Heinrich came from the West Prussian noble family von der Mülbe . He was the son of the Prussian general of the infantry Franz von der Mülbe (1840-1915) and his wife Emma Lina, née Franke (* 1848).

Mülbe studied medicine , law , literature and art history and received his doctorate in Wroclaw in 1904 . From 1905 to 1906 he was a volunteer at the Kestnermuseum in Hanover . He was a private lecturer in art history in Hanover and Heidelberg before settling in Munich in 1915 as a writer and author of scientific works and collections of poetry, as well as a translator (including Tania Blixen's Babettes Fest and Roald Dahl's Küßchen, Küßchen ). In between there were longer stays abroad. In addition to his numerous translations, he published the novel Die Zauberlaterne in 1937 . This was sold out very quickly and was only reissued in West Germany in 1949. The impressions of the writer's long stays in Paris , Florence and Copenhagen flowed precisely into this novel, with which Wolf-Heinrich von der Mülbe introduced himself as a true epic poet. He died in Munich in 1965.
