About the author
Born in Berlin on October 2, 1870, Paul Steinmüller was a German teacher and writer. Biographical records identify him with both professions, and note that he died at Holthof on February 2, 1940.
Catalog records and library references show a broad body of work, including fiction, reflective prose, and historical writing. Titles linked to him include Von Zeit und Ewigkeit; ein Tagebuch, Die Rhapsodien vom verlorenen Königreich, Untrüborn, and a study on the introduction of the Reformation in Brandenburg under Joachim II.
That mix of genres suggests an author comfortable moving between imaginative literature, personal reflection, and history. Even from the surviving records alone, he comes across as a versatile early twentieth-century German man of letters whose work reached beyond a single literary form.
