HARSDORFFER, GEORG PHILIPP (1607-1658) ,
German
  poet, was born at
Nuremberg
  on the 1st of November 1607. He studied law at
Altdorf
  and Strassburg, and subsequently travelled
through Holland,
England
 ,
France
  and
Italy
 . His knowledge of
languages
  gained for him the appellation " the learned," though he was as little a learned man as he was a poet. As a member of the Fruchtbringende Gesellschaft he was called der Spielende (the player). Jointly with Johann Klaj (q.v.) he founded in 1644 at
Nuremberg
  the order of the Pegnitzschafer, a literary society, and among the members thereof he was known by the name of Strephon. He died at Nuremberg on the 22nd of September 1658. His writings in
German
  and Latin fill fifty volumes, and a selection of his poems, interesting mostly for their form, is to be found in Miller's Bibliothek deutscher Dichter des 17ten Jahrhunderls, vol. ix. (
Leipzig
 , 1826).
His
life
  was written by Widmann (
Altdorf
 , 1707). See also Tittmann, Die Nurnberger Dichterschule (
Gottingen
 , 1847) ; Hodermann, Eine vornehme Gesellschaft, nach Harsdorffers " Gesprachspielen" (Paderborn, 1890); T. Bischoff, " Georg Philipp Harsdorffer " in the Festschrift zur 25ojahrigen Jubelfeier des Pegnesischen Blumenordens (Nuremberg, 1894) ; and Krapp, Die asthetischen Tendenzen Harsdorffers (Berlin, 1904).
