Eduard von der Hellen

Eduard von der Hellen (October 27, 1863 – December 17, 1927) was a German archivist, editor and writer.

Eduard von der Hellen was born in Gut Wellen in Wellen, today in the municipality of Beverstedt, district of Cuxhaven.

This led to a dispute with Rudolf Steiner, who probably also had ambitions for the publication of Nietzsche.

After only a few months, Hellen left once again the Nietzsche archive.

Von der Hellen was the main editor of the 40-volume jubilee edition of Goethe's works, which appeared in the years 1902 to 1912, as well as the sixteen-volume secular edition of Schiller's works in the years 1904 and 1905.
