| Opplysninger | Ferdinand Schmidt (October 2, 1816 – July 30, 1890) was a German writer and educator. Several of his works were translated into English by George Putnam Upton. Schmidt was born in Frankfurt an der Oder and spent his youth in Neuzelle where his father held the post of corn clerk. At the age of 15 he became a private tutor at a forest ranger's farm near Neuzelle. When his father died in 1834, he first had to return to his parents' house, then attended the teachers' college in Neuzelle to train to be a teacher. He was employed in the Berlin community school service in 1837 and taught at the school for the poor. Schmidt published an appeal in the Berlin magazine Die Biene asking for book donations for a public library, whereupon he was given 218 volumes. Since 1845 Schmidt emerged with numerous popular and youth publications, first in the journal Die Biene and then in the German Youth Library, which were intended to raise the level of education of the lower classes, but also to increase their national feeling. In 1846 he founded the association for the benefit of the working classes in Berlin after a meeting in the Tivoli on Kreuzberg (Viktoria-Quartier). He published textbooks for school lessons and a book on Prussian history. When he was to be promoted to main teacher because of his services, the responsible provincial school council set the condition that Schmidt was no longer allowed to publish. Schmidt refused and remained a simple teacher. Wikipedia 10.05.2022
