Di libe in der Natur : entviklungs-geshikhte fun der libe [= The Love Life in Nature]

Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. In Yiddish. 152 pages. 21 x 15 cm. Bölsche wrote essays on natural history for magazines such as "Die Gefiederte Welt" or "Isis". He studied from 1883 to 1885 philosophy, art history and archaeology at the University of Bonn. He did not complete studies of classical philology in Bonn,…but in their course he traveled to Rome and Florence, then to Paris. Deciding that he could make writing his career, he moved to Berlin in the fall of 1886, financially supported by his parents. In Berlin-Friedrichshagen he became a central figure in the "Friedrichshagener Dichterkreis", which was an association of writers of naturalism, holding their first meetings in 1888/89 in the houses of Wilhelm Bölsche and Bruno Wille in Friedrichshagen am Müggelsee (now in the Berlin district of Treptow-Köpenick). This circle of friends would visit Erkner, where they sought the tranquility of the Brandenburg landscape near the cosmopolitan city of Berlin. The group became known enough for several Scandinavians to join it. The goal of this group of literati and intellectuals who settled around 1890 in Friedrichshagen, like of may other groups of that type sprouting up at that time, was social reform (German: Lebensreform) that promoted a bohemian, "natural" way of life as a response to industrialization and urbanization, a world view of life reform basically containing a secularized Gnostic-eschatological salvation doctrine (salvation through a "natural way of life"). Through Rudolf Lenz (1863-1938) and Bruno Wille Bölsche came into contact with the literary association "Durch!". Although most of his work covers natural history topics, Bölsche was not a trained naturalist but a popularizer of natural science as a layperson to the general public. Nevertheless, his publishing of "Das Liebesleben in der Natur" (The Love Life in Nature) in 1898 was the key for creating modern fact books in Germany. Boelsche also initiated with Wilhelm Schwaner (1863 - 1944) a prequel of the first German folk high school, the "Freie Hochschule Berlin" in 1902 and was an important instigator for the "Lebensreformbewegung" (Humanistic naturalism - key note: "Back to Nature") in Germany. In 1890 he and Bruno Wille founded the "Freie Volksbühne", which was intended as a workers' theater promoting the naturalist plays of the day. He also edited the most important cultural history review of the day, "Freie Bühne" (Free Stage) and popularized his free-thinking monism knowledge - especially the innovating school of Charles Darwin and Ernst Haeckel in dozens of self-edited books and series released by Kosmos-Verlag in Stuttgart collaborating with the Berlin artist Heinrich Harder. His friendship with the Hauptmann brothers, Gerhart Hauptmann and Carl, brought Bölsche to Schreiberhau in the Riesengebirge mountains, where he would spend the summer regularly, starting in 1901, making his permanent residence there in 1918. He continued to devote himself to his literary work and his extensive correspondence until old age. Bölsche was first married in Berlin in 1892 to Adele Bertelt (1860-1942), but they divorced in 1895. He remarried in 1897 in Cologne to Johanna Walther (1863-1923), a childhood friend (sister of architect Julius Wilhelm Walther, daughter of civil engineer and later factory manager Wilhelm Heinrich Walther and Augusta Alwina te Kloot). The couple had three children: Ernst Wilhelm Julius (1898-1899), Karl Erich Bruno (1899-1977) and Johanna Alwine Elisabeth (1900-35). Wilhelm Bölsche died in Schreiberhau on August 31, 1939. He was interred at the evangelical cemetery of Nieder-Schreiberhau in Dept. F 3 next to his wife Johanna. As a compliment to his work, Boelsche was the name giver to a mountain ridge in the "Riesengebirge" (Karkonosze Mountains), to a Berlin school (Realschule Bölsche - Oberschule), and to many streets in German towns, including the "Bölschestrasse" in his former living district Berlin-Friedrichshagen.
