JENSEN, WILHELM (1837- )

This article appears in Volume V15, Page 321 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: JEE-JUN
JENSEN, WILHELM (1837- ) , German author, was born at Heiligenhafen in Holstein on the 15th of February 1837, the son of a local Danish
magistrate
 , who came of old patrician Frisian stock. After attending the classical schools at
Kiel
  and
xv. r rLubeck, Jensen studied
medicine
  at the universities of
Kiel
 , Wurzburg and Breslau. He, however, abandoned the medical profession for that of letters, and after engaging for some years in individual private study proceeded to
Munich
 , where he associated with men of letters. After a residence in
Stuttgart
  (1865-1869), where for a short time he conducted the Schwabische Volks-Zeitung, he became editor in Flensburg of the Norddeutsche Zeitung. In 1872 he again returned to Kiel, lived from 1876 to 1888 in Freiburg im Breisgau, and since 1888 has been
resident
  in
Munich
 .
Jensen is perhaps the most fertile of modern German writers of fiction, more than one hundred works having proceeded from his pen; but only comparatively few of them have caught the public
taste
 ; such are the novels, Karin von Schweden (Berlin, 1878); Die braune Erica (Berlin, 1868) ; and the tale, Die Pfeifer von Dusenbach, Eine Geschichte aus dem Elsass (1884). Among others may be mentioned : Barthenia (Berlin, 1877) ; Gotz and Gisela (Berlin, 1886) ; Heimkunft (Dresden, 1894) ; Aus See and Sand (Dresden, 1897) ; Luv and Lee (Berlin, 1897) ; and the narratives, Aus den Tagen der Hansa (
Leipzig
 , 1885) ; Aus stiller Zeit (Berlin, 1881-1885) ; and Heimath (1901). Jensen also published some tragedies, among which
Dido
  (Berlin, 187o) and Der Kampf fur's Reick (Freiburg im Br., 1884) may be mentioned.
