Career
Haase obtained in 1834 an appointment at Schulpforta, from which he was suspended and sentenced to six years' imprisonment for identifying himself with the Burschenschaflen (students' associations). Having been released after serving one year of his sentence, he visited Paris, and on his return in 1840 he was appointed professor at Breslau, where he remained till his death on the 16th of August 1867. He was undoubtedly one of the most successful teachers of his day in Germany, and exercised great influence upon all his pupils. He edited several classic authors: Xenophon (1833); Thucydides (1840); Velleius Paterculus (1858); Seneca the philosopher (2nd ed. , 1872); and Tacitus (1855), the introduction to which is a masterpiece of Latinity.
