Educated at Koningsberg University and the University of Berlin, Sudermann had to give up his studies because of financial difficulties. He worked for a time as a tutor before becoming a journalist in Bern, Switzerland. He returned to Germany in 1881 and became the editor of the Deutsches Reichsblatt.

Quotes by Hermann Sudermann (?)

“Kuin myyrä hän kaivoi itselleen teitä hämärien teoriojen lävitse, ja kun päätä huimasi ja ruumis tuntui väsähtäneeltä rasittavan henkisen työn tähden, niin hän sanoi itsekseen: Hänen viimeinen toiveensa ei saa häätyä häpeään!”
― Hermann Sudermann, Frau Sorge: Roman (Sammlung Zenodot)

“We crave for the good opinion of the world, in which we don't believe, and tremble in face of its condemnation, which we despise and condemn in our hearts.”
