Lorenz Jäger studied sociology and German literature at the Philipps-Universität Marburg and the Johann Wolfgang Goethe-Universität Frankfurt am Main. In Marburg of his study time there ruled a „climate of dogmatic marxism“, in which only four professors used to be the „isles of the blessed“: the sociologist Heinz Maus, the Germanist Heinz Schlaffer, the art historian Martin Warnke and the literature scientist Gert Mattenklott. Jäger did his sociology diploma at the Horkheimer-student Maus. After his doctorate in German literature he taught at the Kent State University in Ohio. From 1985 until 1988 he taught at the Hokkaido University in Sapporo (Japan). Since January 1, 1997 he is editor in the liberal arts department of the German broadsheet Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung. Since 2009 he writes a column about religious topics in the Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung, which was published as a book in 2010. Lorenz Jäger is married with two children.
