He was born at Brandenburg an der Havel, of a family of French Huguenot origin. Although not originally intended for a military career, Fouqué ultimately gave up his university studies at Halle to join the army, and he took part in the Rhine campaign of 1794. The rest of his life was devoted mainly to literary pursuits. Fouqué’s first marriage was unhappy and soon ended in divorce. His second wife, Caroline Philippine von Briest, enjoyed some reputation as a novelist in her day. After her death, Fouqué married a third time. He died in 1843, at age sixty-five, in Berlin.
