Editing Felix Hausdorff (section)

===Lecturer in Leipzig===
After his Habilitation, Hausdorff became a lecturer at the University of Leipzig where he began extensive teaching in a variety of mathematical areas. In addition to teaching and research in mathematics, he also pursued his literary and philosophical inclinations. A man of varied interests, he often associated with a number of famous writers, artists and publishers such as [[Hermann Conradi]], [[Richard Dehmel]], [[Otto Erich Hartleben]], [[Gustav Kirstein]], [[Max Klinger]], [[Max Reger]] and [[Frank Wedekind]]. The years of 1897 to 1904 mark the high point of his literary and philosophical creativity, during which time 18 of his 22 pseudonymous works were published, including a book of poetry, a play, an epistemological book and a volume of [[aphorism]]s.

In 1899 Hausdorff married Charlotte Goldschmidt, the daughter of Jewish doctor Siegismund Goldschmidt. Her stepmother was the famous suffragist and preschool teacher [[Henriette Goldschmidt]]. Hausdorff's only child, his daughter Lenore (Nora), was born in 1900; she survived the era of National Socialism and enjoyed a long life, dying in Bonn in 1991.
