From 1821 to 1825 he studied philosophy, theology and philology at the universities of Tübingen and Heidelberg, where Georg Friedrich Creuzer was an important influence to his career. Afterwards, he became a librarian at the Royal Library in Stuttgart, where in 1869 he was appointed as its director.[1][2] With Georg Waitz and Ludwig Häusser, he was editor of the journal, Forschungen zur Deutschen Geschichte ("Research of German History").
