About the author
Born Andreas Robert Eule on October 15, 1864, in Lichtenburg near Prettin, he wrote under the pseudonym Fritz Pistorius. German biographical records identify him as a teacher, later a Studienrat, as well as a novelist and storyteller, and note that he died in Berlin on November 17, 1932.
The name Fritz Pistorius appears on a range of German-language books and stories, including school-themed and youthful narratives such as Doktor Fuchs und seine Tertia and Die Kriegsprima und andere Geschichten vom Doktor Fuchs. The surviving catalog and public-domain listings suggest a writer who was especially interested in students, classrooms, and everyday life.
Because detailed modern biographies of him are limited, much of what can be confirmed today comes from national library and author-record databases rather than from long narrative profiles. Even so, those records show a clear picture: a German educator who used fiction to capture the world he knew best.
