Ernst Heinrich Christian Heusinger (* 10. August 1792 in Eisenach; † 25 January 1884 in Brunswick), pseudonym Eduard Heusinger, was a German writer, editor and collector of legends.

Life: Heusinger's father, the doctor Johann Heinrich Christian Heusinger, died before he was born, and his mother remarried in 1793. The family moved to Freudenberg, the young Heusinger became the guardian of the government councilor Wolf. From 1807 he attended the grammar school in his native town of Eisenach, from 1808 to 1816 he was a soldier and served in Spain, France and Italy. After his release, he first returned to Freudenberg and in 1817 settled down as a farmer in Bevern. He then went into civil service and held posts as a customs and border passport administrator until his retirement in 1836. In 1836 he moved to Sallmannshausen, rented a farm there and began writing. In 1846 he went to Braunschweig as a freelance writer and published his writings under the pseudonym Eduard Heusinger. He lived in Braunschweig until his death in 1884.

Heusinger was married twice. After divorcing his first wife in 1836, with whom he had two children, he remarried in 1848. One child was born of this marriage.

Achievements: Heusinger's work was characterized by the exaggerated, unreal idealization of a man who was disappointed in his life. He earned merit for the collection of legends from the Saxon and Thuringian area, they are now considered important folk property from this time. In addition, he wrote writings with an autobiographical background, for example about his time as a soldier, as well as contemporary writings about his adopted home of Braunschweig.
