Draft:Alfred Schöne

Alfred Curt Immanuel Schöne (Pseudonym A. Roland) (16 October 1836 – 8 January 1918) was a German classical philologist and literary historian.

Life
Alfred Schöne was born as the son of Gottlieb Immanuel Schöne (1794–1849) and his wife Ulrike née von Schierbrand (1820–1870). After studying classical philology in Leipzig, he worked as a high school teacher in Dresden for two years and then completed his habilitation at Leipzig University in 1864. There he was appointed associate professor in 1867. During his time studying in Leipzig, he became a member of the Leipzig University Singers' Association of St. Pauli (today the German Singers' Association) in the winter of 1857 into 1858. In 1869 he accepted an invitation from the University of Erlangen to become a professor and began on June 18, 1870 with the inaugural lecture Analecta philologica historica. From 1871 he also accepted a substitute professorship in ancient history, but left the University of Erlangen in 1874 on behalf of the Prussian Ministry of Education for scientific studies in Paris, interrupted by stays in Gotha and Italy from 1875 to 1877. When he wanted to return to Germany in 1883, however, the Greifswald professor Ulrich von Wilamowitz-Moellendorff was preferred for the available chair at the University of Göttingen. In 1884, Schöne became a librarian at the Göttingen University Library and later became a professor at the University of Königsberg in 1887. When he moved to Kiel University in 1892, Johannes Schmidt became his successor. Schöne taught at Kiel University until he retired in 1902.

Unter dem Pseudonym A. Roland verfasste er die Novelle Der blaue Schleier. Er war der Bruder von Richard Schöne. Der königlich niederländische Offizier Wolf Curt von Schierbrand war sein Onkel.
