# The Encyclopedia Americana (1920)/Hoffmann, August Heinrich

Edition of 1920. See also August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
HOFFMANN, August Heinrich, ow'goost hīn'riH hŏf'män, usually known as Hoffman von Fallersleben, German poet and philologist: b. Fallersleben, Hanover, 2 April 1798; d. Corvei, 19 Jan. 1874. He studied at Göttingen and Bonn, was appointed in 1823 custodian of the university library at Breslau, and in 1830 became extraordinary, in 1835 ordinary professor of the German language and literature in the university of that city. He resigned his librarianship at Breslau in 1838, and in 1842 was removed from his chair without a pension because of the liberal political views represented in his ‘Unpolitsche Lieder’ (1840-41). He led a wandering life till 1845, when he obtained the right of domicile in Mecklenburg. In 1848 he was granted a pension by the Prussian government, and from 1860 he was librarian to the Duke of Ratibor. Of his original writings the best known are his songs, not a few of which, especially that beginning ‘Deutschland, Deutschland über Alles’ (1841), have long received emphatic popular approval. For several of them he composed tunes. They were published in several volumes, among these being ‘Gedichte’ (1827); ‘Alemannische Lieder’ (1827); ‘Hundert Schullieder’ (1848); ‘Deutsches Volksgesangbuch’ (1848); ‘Soldatenlieder’ (1851); ‘Kinderwelt in Liedern,’ and ‘Alte und Neue Kinderlieder’ (1873). A complete edition of his ‘Kinderlieder’ was prepared by von Donop in 1877. ‘Mein Leben’ (1868; abridged edition continued to his death, by Gersterberg, 1892-94), is autobiographical. Consult also the ‘Life’ by Wagner (1869).
# The Encyclopedia Americana (1920)/Holzamer, Wilhelm

Edition of 1920. See also Wilhelm Holzamer on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
HOLZAMER, hōlts'äm-ėr, Wilhelm, German novelist and short-story writer: b. Nieder-Olm, near Mainz, 28 March 1870; d. Berlin, 28 Aug. 1907. He was the son of an artisan and first prepared himself for the calling of a common school teacher, serving in that capacity at the Realschule of Heppenheim an der Bergstrasse from 1892 to 1896. His literary career began during these years, with the production
of poems and short stories, and a number of monographs on German writers, prepared for newspapers in Germany and in the United States. After 1896 he devoted himself entirely to literaty pursuits, retaining his home at Heppenheim until 1902, when Grand Duke Ernst Ludwig of Hessen, whose attention had been called to the poet in so favorable a manner that he was determined to give him an opportunity to develop his talents, called him to Darmstadt to become his private librarian. After occupying this position for a few years, Holzamer left it and settled in Paris as correspondent for a number of German papers, moving to Berlin in 1905, where he fell sick with diphtheria and died in the Elizabeth Hospital. Only one of his short stories has been translated into English (‘Cellist Behnke’ in The New Review, April 1914); it gives an excellent idea of his impressionistic word-painting. Among his works are ‘Meine Lieder’ (poems, 1892); ‘Auf staubigen Strassen’ (sketches, 1898); ‘Im Dorf und draussen’ (short stories, 1901); ‘Die Siegesallee’ (letters on art, 1902); ‘Ellida Solstratten’ (novel, 1904); biographies of ‘Konrad Ferdinand Meyer’ and ‘Heinrich Heine’ (1905); ‘Der Entgleiste’ (novel in 2 vols., 1910).

HOEBER, Arthur, American artist: b. New York, 23 July 1854; d. Nutley, N. J., 29 April 1915. He studied under Beckwith at the Art Students' League in New York, and under Gérôme at the École des Beaux Arts, exhibited for the first time at the Salon in 1882 and was a contributor to most American exhibitions. He was art critic of the New York Times for three years, associate editor of the Illustrated American for one year and later became art critic of the New York Globe and Commercial Advertiser. He was also known as a lecturer on art. He was elected an associate of the National Academy. Among his writings are ‘Treasures of the Metropolitan Museum of Art’ (1892); and ‘Painting in the 19th Century in France, Belgium, Spain and Italy.’ His Salon picture in 1882 was ‘Sur la Grande Route’ and in 1885 ‘Le Pain Quotidien.’

HOFFMAN, Eugene Augustus, American Episcopal clergyman: b. New York, 21 March 1829; d. near Plattsburg, N. Y., 17 June 1902. He was educated at Rutgers and Harvard colleges and at the General Theological Seminary. He held successive rectorships at Elizabeth, N. J., Burlington, N. J., Brooklyn, N. Y., and Philadelphia, and in 1879 was appointed dean
of the General Theological Seminary, New York, and with others of his family heavily endowed that institution. Dean Hoffman built Christ Church and rectory at Elizabeth, N. J., and also churches at Woodbridge and Milburn, N. J. He was the author of ‘Free Churches’ (1858); and ‘The Eucharistic Week’ (1859 and 1893). Consult Riley, T. M., ‘Memorial Biography of E. A. Hoffman’ (New York 1904).
# The Encyclopedia Americana (1920)/Hoffmann, Ernst Theodor Wilhelm

Edition of 1920. See also E. T. A. Hoffmann on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
HOFFMANN, Ernst Theodor Wilhelm, German novelist: b. Königsberg, 24 Jan. 1776; d. 24 July 1822. In admiration of Mozart be dropped the name Wilhelm and substituted Amadeus. His childhood and youth were joyless and in 1792 he entered the University of Königsberg to prepare for a legal career. He practised for a short time at Königsberg, removing subsequently to Glogau and in 1798 to Berlin. In 1800 he went to Posen but his powers of caricature cost him his place and caused his virtual banishment to Plozk. His leisure moments were spent in musical composition. In 1804 he removed to Warsaw, where he was influenced by the Romantic writers such as
Novalis, Tieck and Wackenroder. During his sojourn in Warsaw he composed the music to Brentano's ‘Lustige Musikanten’ and to Werner's ‘Kreuz an der Ostzee’ and the opera ‘Liebe und Eifersucht.’ Hoffmann's fortunes were impaired when the French invaded Warsaw, and in 1808 he moved to Bamberg as musical director of a theatre there. This institution became bankrupt and Hoffmann turned to literature in order to enhance his scanty earnings as composer and teacher of music. His earliest work was a series of musical sketches, ‘Phantasiestücke in Callots Manier’ (4 vols., 1814). In 1814 he was recalled to Berlin and in 1816 was made councillor of the Court of Appeal. In the latter year appeared his great novel, ‘Die Elixiere der Teufels’ (q.v.), which laid the foundation of his 1iterary fame. Hoffman's habits of dissipation impaired his health and he died of locomotor ataxia at the age of 46. Other works by him are ‘Lebensansichten des Katers Murr’ (1820-22), ‘Die Serapionsbrüder’ (1819) and ‘Nachtstücke’ (1817). His works were recently published (15 vols., 1905). His musical compositions were edited by E. Istel (1906). Translations of all of his important works have appeared in English. Consult Ellinger, G., ‘E. T. A. Hoffmann’ (1894); Hitzig, ‘Hoffmann's Leben und Nachlass’ (Stuttgart 1839); Klinke, O., ‘Hoffmann's Leben und Werke vom Standpunkte eines Irrenarztes’ (1903); Sakheim, Arthur, ‘E. T. A. Hoffmann: Studien zu seiner Personlichkeit und seinen Werken’ (Leipzig 1908); Wolzogen, Hans, ‘E. T. A. Hoffmann und R. Wagner’ (Berlin 1906).

HOLLEBEN, hōl'lā-bėn, Theodore von, German diplomat: b. Stettin, Pomerania, 16 Sept. 1838; d. 1913. He was educated at the universities of Heidelberg, Berlin and Göttingen; became an officer in the Bodyguard Hussar Regiment; and took a distinguished part in the Franco-Prussian War. He entered the diplomatic service in 1872; was chargé-d'affaires at Peking, China, 1873-74, and at Tokio, Japan, in 1875; Minister at Buenos Aires in 1876-84; at Tokio 1885-89; and at Washington, D. C., 1892-93. In 1897 he became Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary to the United States. At the command of Emperor William he, together with Secretary Hay, of the State Department, had charge of the arrangements for the official reception of the emperor's brother, Admiral Prince Henry, in February 1902. Failing health together with his inability to have President Roosevelt arbitrate the German-Venezuelan dispute caused his resignation,
and in 1903 he was succeeded by Baron Speck von Sternberg. Consult Roosevelt, Theodore, ‘An Autobiography’ (New York 1913).

# The Encyclopedia Americana (1920)/Holden, Edward Singleton

Edition of 1920. See also Edward S. Holden on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
HOLDEN, Edward Singleton, American astronomer: b. Saint Louis, Mo., 5 Nov. 1846; d. 16 March 1914.

# The Encyclopedia Americana (1920)/Holz, Arno

Edition of 1920. See also Arno Holz on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
HOLZ, hōlts, Arno, German poet: b. Rastenburg, East Prussia, 26 April 1863. He came to Berlin early in life, attended the schools and university there, and made it his permanent home. To write verses seems to have been an early passion with him. Geibel, Heine and Eichendorff were his first models. In honor of the 70th birthday of Geibel, he published his first book of poems, ‘Gedenkbuch’ (1884). Soon after he became interested in some of the more modern lyric poets. But he did not find much satisfaction in them, as he wished to fathom scientifically the basis of art and turned to an extreme form of naturalism under the influence of Zola and other moderns. ‘Das Buch der Zeit’ (Lieder eines Modernen, 1885), showed this tendency, which he developed into a positive theory in association with Johannes Schlaf. During the years 1887-88 these two men worked together assiduously and produced jointly ‘Papa Hamlet’ (1889), a collection of novelistic sketches, supposed to have been translated from the Norweigan of Björne Holmsen. In these stories the action — in so far as one can speak of action — moves forward with the hands of the clock. In their drama, ‘Familie Selicke’ (1890) they sacrificed all to their one paramount principle of naturalism.
Holz continued working alone, with much self-confidence, on his theories of art and then tried to put them into practice as a poet, which resulted in the following publications: ‘Die Kunst, ihr Wesen und ihre Gesetze’ (1891); ‘Die Socialaristokraten’ (comedy, 1896); ‘Phantasus’ (poems, 1899); ‘Die Revolution der Lyrik’ (1899); ‘Dafnis, Lieder auf einer alten Laute’ (1903-04); ‘Traumulus’ (Schauspiel, 1904); and ‘Ignorabimus’ (Tragödie, 1913). Holz must be given an important position among the writers who influenced the trend of literary events in Germany in the last decades of the 19th century. It is only necessary to mention his influence on Hauptmann and Sudermann. No permanent works of art were produced by him and he has been much overrated in this respect by his admirers, but as a stimulating force, as a producer of new ideas on art, he has a secure place in literary history. Consult Strobl, Dr. Karl, ‘Arno Holz und die Jungstdeutsche Bewegung’ (1902); Resz, Robert, ‘Arno Holz und seine Künstlerische Bedeutung’ (Dresden 1913); Lessing. O. E., 'Masters in Modern German Literature' (Dresden 1912).
# The Five Nations/Dirge of Dead Sisters

DIRGE OF DEAD SISTERS
Who recalls the twilight and the ranged tents in order (Violet peaks uplifted through the crystal evening air?) And the clink of iron teacups and the piteous, noble laughter, And the faces of the Sisters with the dust upon their hair?
(Now and not hereafter, while the breath is in our nostrils, Now and not hereafter, ere the meaner years go by— Let us now remember many honourable women, Such as bade us turn again when we were like to die.)
​Who recalls the morning and the thunder through the foothills (Tufts of fleecy shrapnel strung along the empty plains?) And the sun-scarred Red-Cross coaches creeping guarded to the culvert, And the faces of the Sisters looking gravely from the trains?
(When the days were torment and the nights were clouded terror, When the Powers of Darkness had dominion on our soul When we fled consuming through the Seven Hells of fever, These put out their hands to us and healed and made us whole.)
Who recalls the midnight by the bridge's wrecked abutment (Autumn rain that rattled like a Maxim on the tin?) ​And the lightning-dazzled levels and the streaming, straining wagons, And the faces of the Sisters as they bore the wounded in?
(Till the pain was merciful and stunned us into silence— When each nerve cried out on God that made the misused clay; When the Body triumphed and the last poor shame departed— These abode our agonies and wiped the sweat away.)
Who recalls the noontide and the funerals through the market (Blanket-hidden bodies, flagless, followed by the flies?) And the footsore firing-party, and the dust and stench and staleness, And the faces of the Sisters and the glory in their eyes?
(Bold behind the battle, in the open camp all-hallowed, ​Patient, wise, and mirthful in the ringed and reeking town, These endured unresting till they rested from their labours— Little wasted bodies, ah, so light to lower down!)
Yet their graves are scattered and their names are clean forgotten, Earth shall not remember, but the Waiting Angel knows Them that died at Uitvlugt when the plague was on the city— Her that fell at Simon's Town in service on our foes.
Wherefore we they ransomed, while the breath is in our nostrils. Now and not hereafter, ere the meaner years go by— Praise with love and worship many honourable women, Those that gave their lives for us when we were like to die!
# The Five Nations/Kitchener's School

KITCHENER'S SCHOOL
Being a translation of the song that was made by a Mohammedan schoolmaster of Bengal Infantry (some time on service at Suakim) when he heard that the Sirdar was taking money from the English to build a Madrissa for Hubshees—or a college for the Sudanese, 1898.
Oh Hubshee, carry your shoes in your hand and bow your head on your breast! This is the message of Kitchener who did not break you in jest. It was permitted to him to fulfil the long-appointed years, Reaching the end ordained of old over your dead Emirs.
He stamped only before your walls, and the Tomb ye knew was dust: He gathered up under his armpits all the swords of your trust: ​He set a guard on your granaries, securing the weak from the strong: He said:—"Go work the waterwheels that were abolished so long."
He said:—"Go safely, being abased. I have accomplished my vow." That was the mercy of Kitchener. Cometh his madness now! He does not desire as ye desire, nor devise as ye devise: He is preparing a second host—an army to make you wise.
Not at the mouth of his clean-lipped guns shall ye learn his name again, But letter by letter, from Kaf to Kaf, at the mouth of his chosen men. He has gone back to his own city, not seeking presents or bribes, But openly asking the English for money to buy you Hakims and scribes.
​Knowing that ye are forfeit by battle and have no right to live, He begs for money to bring you learning—and all the English give. It is their treasure—it is their pleasure—thus are their hearts inclined: For Allah created the English mad—the maddest of all mankind!
They do not consider the Meaning of Things; they consult not creed nor clan. Behold, they clap the slave on the back, and behold, he ariseth a man! They terribly carpet the earth with dead, and before their cannon cool, They walk unarmed by twos and threes to call the living to school.
How is this reason (which is their reason) to judge a scholar's worth, By casting a ball at three straight sticks and defending the same with a fourth? ​But this they do (which is doubtless a spell) and other matters more strange, Until, by the operation of years, the hearts of their scholars change:
Till these make come and go great boats or engines upon the rail (But always the English watch near by to prop them when they fail); Till these make laws of their own choice and Judges of their own blood; And all the mad English obey the Judges and say that the Law is good.
Certainly they were mad from of old: but I think one new thing, That the magic whereby they work their magic—wherefrom their fortunes spring— May be that they show all peoples their magic and ask no price in return. Wherefore, since ye are bond to that magic, O Hubshee, make haste and learn!
​Certainly also is Kitchener mad. But one sure thing I know— If he who broke you be minded to teach you, to his Madrissa go! Go, and carry your shoes in your hand and bow your head on your breast, For he who did not slay you in sport, he will not teach you in jest.
