Biographical History
Wilhelm Levison (1876-1947) was a German historian from Duesseldorf, Germany. His family was originally from Siegburg, Germany. He studied History and Classical Philology at the Universities of Bonn and Berlin and then started to work for the publication series Monumenta Germaniae Historica under Bruno Kusch (1857-1940). In 1903 he became a lecturer at the University of Bonn in "History of the medieval ages" and "Auxiliary Historic Sciences." In 1909 he was given the title of Professor and in 1931 he was made a Doctor of letters honoris causa by the University of Durham, England. He requested to emigrate in 1935, but was denied and sent into retirement. He was able to leave for Durham in 1939. His work mainly concerned shedding light on the Dark Ages. In Bonn there is a street named after him: the Wilhelm-Levison-Strasse.
