Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: GOA-GRA
GOLTZ, BOGUMIL (18o1-1870) , German humorist and satirist, was born at
Warsaw
  on the loth of
March
  18or. After attending the classical schools of Marienwerder and
Konigsberg
 , he learnt farming on an estate near Thorn, and in 1821 entered the university of
Breslau
  as a student of philosophy. But he
soon abandoned an academical career, and, after returning for a while to country life, retired to the small town of Gollub, where he devoted himself to literary studies. In 1847 he settled at Thorn, " the
home
  of
Copernicus
 ," where he died on the 12th of November 1870. Goltz is best known to literary fame by his Buck der Kindheit (Frankfort, 1847; 4th ed., Berlin, 1877), in which, after the style of
Jean
  Paul, and Adalbert Stifter, but with a more modern
realism
 , he gives a charming and idyllic description of the impressions of his own childhood. Among his other works must be noted Ein Jugendleben (1852) ; Der Mensch and die Leute (1858); Zur Charakteristik and Naturgeschichte der Frauen (1859); Zur Geschichte and Charakteristik des deutschen Genius (1864), and Die Weltklugheit and die Lebensweisheit (1869).
Goltz's works have not been collected, but a selection will be found in Reclam's Universalbibliothek (ed. by P.
Stein
 , 1901 and 1906). See O. Roquette, Siebzig Jahre, i. (1894).
