Biography and work
Riedel first studied German and philosophy at the University of Mannheim. This was followed by academic teaching from 1980 to 1989 and his doctorate in modern German literature at the University of Passau. Between the years 1989 and 2017 he was a research fellow and head of the inventory and use department in the library of the German Literature Archive in Marbach, with a focus on the care of the special collections (poets and scholars' libraries, publisher's archives, topic- and author-specific bundles), inter-institutional lending and magazine logistics. In 2018 and 2019 he worked part-time in the literature archive and was responsible for the Marbach Schiller bibliography.
For many years, Riedel was co-editor of the literary magazine "Passauer Pegasus" and a member of the Mecklenburg Literature Society and the German Schiller Society.
Nicolai Riedel has lived in the baroque city of Ludwigsburg since 1989.
