Will Ogrinc

Willem Hubert Louis (Willy, Wil, Will) Ogrinc (Kerkrade, March 29, 1951 – Utrecht, March 21, 2018) was a Dutch poet and biographer.

Biography

Ogrinc was the son of miner Leonard Hubert Ogrinc and Johanna Catharina Crombach. In the year he was born, his brother Heini (1946-1951) died in an accident. He studied medieval history and was most recently a teacher in that subject at Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences. In 1976 he published an interview with Boudewijn Büch, whose poetry collection Nogal sad songs voor de kleine Gijs he had previously discussed, a collection of poems about Büch's alleged love for young boys. Around 1978 he published Youthful Sinners in Constantinople by the journalist Esgo Taco Feenstra Kuiper (1857-1908), which, among other things, discussed the accessible ephebes in the place mentioned. He made his debut as a poet in 1981 with Ger Kleis at his press Sub Signo Libelli with Secretum secretorum, which also had the love of boys as its subject. However, his 'life's work' seems to have been the biography of Jacques d'Adelswärd-Fersen (1880-1923), a first version of which he published in 1994 in the Amsterdam English-language magazine Paedika. The Journal of Paedophilia, and a fourth and final version of which appeared on the internet in 2014; this article was dedicated 'In memoriam Heini J.A. Ogrinc (1946-1951)'. Adelswärd is known for his literary work, but also for his interest in boys around the age of 15, and the scandal he helped cause in Paris in 1903. Ogrinc was the one who first examined the preserved Paris court documents regarding Adelswärd in 2003. Since then, this biographical publication has always been mentioned in the literature about Adelswärd.

Death

W.H.L. Ogrinc died in 2018 at the age of 66.
