Lifeedit
Stahr was the son of the preacher and pastor Johann Adam Stahr (1768–1839). He attended grammar school in Prenzlau. In 1825 at the request of the parents he went to Halle to study theology, but soon changed because of his enthusiasm for the classics, and studied philology. After graduating, he taught for ten years at the Royal Pädagogium in Halle. In 1834 he married the preacher's daughter Marie Krätz. The marriage produced five children, three boys (Alwin, Adolf and Edo) and two girls (Anna and Helene).
In 1836, he became Vice Chancellor and Professor at the Gymnasium in Oldenburg. A collection of critical work on the Theatre appeared in 1845 (Oldenburg theater review, 2 vols).
In 1845, Stahr and made a long journey through Italy, Switzerland and France, where he met Heinrich Heine. At the end of 1845 in Rome, he met the writer Fanny Lewald. This kindled a passionate relationship, and in the following years they both made several trips, wrote and worked together. In 1852 Stahr retired and moved to Berlin. In 1855 he married Fanny Lewald. He dedicated himself to continuing his varied literary works.
