As a glance at existing biographies shows, individual phases of the life of the educator Friedrich Ludwig Jahn (1778-1852), known as "Turnvater Jahn," have received little attention from researchers to date. These include the years between the unsuccessful end of his student days in Göttingen and his early years in Berlin. This collection of sources aims to shed light on these rather "dark years" by bringing together previously unpublished primary sources that provide more detailed information about Jahn and his personal environment. In addition to personal letters and documents, the edition gathers contemporary portraits of him as well as reviews of his main work "Deutsches Volksthum" published during his lifetime.
