PREFACE Poeta, [...] ein ehedem sehr gangbares Wort, welches durch den Mißbrauch nunmehr etwas verächtliches an sich genommen hat. J. G. KRÜNITZ, Oeconomische Encyklopädie.

In the dozen years that have elapsed since my Poets Laureate in the Holy Roman Empire. A Bio-bibliographical Handbook (Berlin and New York: Walter de Gruyter, 2006) (hereafter Handbook), recording some 1,345 poets laureated between 1355 and 1804, was published, valuable additional information has come to light and numerous further discoveries have been made, which renders it desirable to prepare a supplementary volume. The primary aim of this supplement is to make available to future researchers the raw material to enable them to amplify the bio-bibliographical sketches of the poets concerned. For various reasons, not least advancing years and the concomitant more restricted ability to travel and visit far-flung libraries (though, given recent advances in digitisation, such expeditions are now becoming less essential), it has not been possible to research the individual poets in the same depth as in the original Handbook, but it is hoped that the information presented here will at least serve to provide helpful pointers to where further work is needed. It cannot be emphasised too strongly that most of this additional information has come to hand by chance rather than through systematic searching. As such, the coverage remains uneven and imperfect. However, it is hoped that this information will help underpin future research which will, in any case, meanwhile have been made somewhat easier given the further development of the internet and the remarkable growth of online facilities since the original Handbook appeared. In the introduction to the Handbook I stated that many of the more than thirteen hundred poets recorded there had been discovered quite by chance. Since then, more than one hundred and thirty further poets – an augmentation of ten per cent – previously unknown to me, have come to light (and there may yet be more to be found!). Several of these have been discovered purely through serendipity on my own part, while others have

Preface

been brought to my attention by generous reviewers of the Handbook and kind correspondents, to all of whom I am grateful and whose assistance is acknowledged in the appropriate entries below. In this connexion, I owe particular thanks to Ewa Pietrzak (Braunschweig) for her extremely helpful review in Archiv für Kulturgeschichte, 90 (2008), 215–220, which drew attention to several omissions, and to David Paisey (London) and the late Horst Meyer (Bad Iburg) who were ever-vigilant in supplying additional details. Sabine Koloch (Ravensburg) has provided valuable further information relating to nearly two dozen women who were laureated, and she is owed a particular debt of thanks for unearthing a forgotten list of twenty-one poets laureated at Wittenberg in 1733 and also for alerting me to an obscure article by Wolfram Suchier of 1931 which lists more than a dozen other Wittenberg laureates who had previously eluded me, including the last laureate of all, Abraham Gottlieb Raabe in 1806. Progress with the work has been encouraged by my wife Ann, by the helpful assistance of Dr W. A. Kelly (Galashiels), and it has also benefited from support from two friends, Professor William Jervis Jones (London) and Professor Reinhard Düchting (Heidelberg), neither of whom, sadly, lived to see its completion. Once again it is my pleasure to express my gratitude to the staff of Walter de Gruyter for their care and assistance in seeing this book through to publication. London, January 2019

HOW TO USE THIS BOOK The aim of this Supplement is twofold. The first is to provide details of one hundred and thirty-four laureated poets who were not included in the original Handbook. These newly discovered poets are numbered in the same way as in the Handbook itself and have been inserted at the appropriate place in the alphabetical and numerical sequence; they (with the exception of V–21 and V22, which are also new) have been given ‘a’ (or ‘b’ or ‘c’) numbers to show where they should fit into the main work. In the table of Contents and in the General Index these newly discovered poets are specially indicated by means of BOLD SMALL CAPITALS. For these, as much information as has been ascertained concerning their lives and writings is supplied, following the same format as in the Handbook. Each entry comprises a heading giving the poet’s name (with variants and any pseudonyms) and dates of birth and death (where known). This may be followed by the following sub-sections: date and place of laureation and by whom or on whose authority this was performed; a brief account of the poet’s life and career; a list of the poet’s works; references in standard reference works; and secondary literature specifically relating to the poet. Where no information in any of these categories has come to hand, the relevant sections have been silently omitted to save space. The second aim of the Supplement is to augment, modify or, where necessary, correct information provided in the Handbook. For ease of cross-reference, the poets are numbered in the same way as in the Handbook and, in addition, the page numbers of the main entry in the Handbook are supplied in the main headings. In general, information given in the Handbook itself is not repeated in the Supplement. Consequently, the Supplement should be read in conjunction with the Handbook (which, since its publication in print in 2006, has meanwhile also become available online). In some cases more precise information concerning a poet’s dates and biography can now be given, and in others more extensive details of their publications have been ascertained. In the interests of brevity, normally only works not listed in the main Handbook entry have been listed, under the heading Further works; generally these titles have been taken from the various volumes of Klaus Garber’s immensely useful Handbuch des personalen Gelegenheitsschrifttums in europäischen Bibliotheken und

Archiven, GVK, VD16, VD17 or other online sources and have not been inspected individually. Similarly, additional references to reference sources (especially the CERL [Consortium of European Research Libraries] thesaurus (https://data.cerl.org/thesaurus), notwithstanding its current imperfections1) and to secondary literature (mostly published since 2006) are indicated under the headings Further reference works and Further secondary literature. I should mention that, under the latter heading, while I normally record any items which have happened to come to my attention, in general no systematic fresh search for new publications has been undertaken – to have done so for the almost fifteen hundred laureates now known to me would have been an enormous additional challenge in itself. Finally, it should be noted that frequently cited reference works and works of secondary literature are normally indicated by abbreviated titles or using the author and date system: full details are given in the section headed Bibliography and Abbreviations.

______________ 1 Although this database provides much useful information, one of its chief problems is that many authors appear two or three times – Martin Opitz and Adam Schröter four times, Sebastian Hornmold five times, Heinrich Knaust possibly even six, Michael Lindener, Hieronymus Megiser and Petrus Werner seven times – with different information given in each entry. In fact, the thesaurus contains multiple entries for more than two hundred of the poets listed in this supplement alone. These cases were brought to the attention of the CERL team in October 2018 and many have since been rectified. It should also be noted that the supplement includes more than sixty poets for whom at least in October 2018 there were no entries in the CERL database; these, too, have been brought to the attention of the CERL team and may have been included in the meantime. Finally, users should note that CERL references have, of course, not been provided for poets listed in the original Handbook, for whom otherwise no other additional information has come to hand.

JOHANN GEORG AHLE (baptised) 12 June 1651–2 December 1706 Date of laureation: 1680 Performed by/on behalf of: Leopold I Johann Georg Ahle, son of the organist Johann Rudolf Ahle (1625–1673), was baptised at Mühlhausen (Thuringia) on 12 June 1651. After his father’s death he was appointed organist at St. Blasien in Mühlhausen (as the immediate predecessor of Johann Sebastian Bach) and became a member of the town council (his father had been First Burghermaster in 1673). He was laureated by Leopold I in 1680. He died at Mühlhausen on 2 December 1706. Ahle was concerned to bridge the gap between poetry and musical composition, understanding himself as a ‘melopoet’ who linked poetry and music closely. For him the text was always the composer’s point of departure; it is the composer’s task to ‘translate’ the text using the devices of musical rhetoric. Ahle composed poems and set to music poems by Johann Rist and Philipp von Zesen, including the latter’s ‘Die güldene Sonne bringt Leben und Wonne’. His hymns were not suited to congregational use, being too ornamented in style, hence many of his works have not survived. Works Geistliche Andachten, 1671.

HEINRICH TOBIAS ALBINUS 18 December 1631–1or 5 December 1697 Date of laureation: before 6 May 1667 For further details see Handbook, A–18 (I, 46). Note his amended dates: 1631–1697 (in the Handbook they were given as fl. 1676/81). He was born, the son of Tobias Albinus, at Graba, Saalfeld, according to Jena ULB (GND 121587568). In 1666 Albinus appears as respondent to Johann Friedrich Gerhard (1631–1637) at Jena; see Theses De Theologia in Genere ...

PAUL AMALTEO PAULUS AMALTHEUS 15 May 1470–February 1517 Date of laureation: (1) 1489; (2) not after 1517 Place of laureation: (1) Pordenone; (2) Vienna Performed by/on behalf of: (1) Frederick III; (2) Maximilian I For further details see Handbook, A–24 (I, 58). According to MORIZ BERMANN, Oesterreichisches biographisches Lexikon, Vienna, 1851, H. 1, 128, (and thus accordingly in the Handbook), Amalteo was laureated at Vienna by Maximilian I. However, GEORG WACHA, Linz unter Maximilian I. [pt. 2]. Humanisten und Künstler in Linz, in: Oberösterreichische Heimatblätter, 49, 4 (1995), 322–58, states (p. 326) that he was laureated by Frederick III at Pordenone, whence he hailed, in 1489 by way of thanks for a poem he had written to welcome the Emperor there. Afterwards he followed the Emperor to Linz where he witnessed the tournament in which Maximilian participated (see FRANZ GALL, Das ritterliche Spiel zu Linz von 1489/1490, in: Kunstjahrbuch der Stadt Linz 1964, pp. 91–99), before composing verses on Maximilian’s expeditions to Hungary in 1490 and 1491. With Frederick’s support, Amalteo obtained the post of lecturer in poetics and rhetoric at Vienna. On the death of the Emperor he composed an epicedion which served also as a panegyric on the dead Emperor’s son, Maximilian (see ALPHONS LHOTSKY, Quellenkunde zur mittelalterlichen Geschichte Österreichs, 1963, p. 441). It is quite possible that Amalteo was laureated twice, by Frederick III and Maximilian, as appears also to have been the case with Quintius Aemilianus (q.v.), whose pupil Amalteo was. Amalteo was murdered in Germany in 1517 (WACHA 1995, 330).

ANDREAS ARVIDI ANDREAS ARVIDI STREGNENSIS c. 1620–1673 Date of laureation: not after 17 March 1649 The Swedish poetry theorist Andreas Arvidi, who graduated with a dissertation De fortitudine under Professor Johannes Gezelius at Dorpat on 17 October 1648, seems to have taken his M.A. shortly thereafter. He uses the title Poëta caesareus just once, in a poem to mark the name-day of Gezelius’s wife on 17 March 1649 (VIIDING 2002: 45). For an explanation of how he may have acquired the title see SAINIO 1993: 281–2. On 4 June 1651 he took up an appointment as teacher at the gymnasium at Strängnäs

Die Feierlichkeit selbst betreffend, so besitzen wir über dieselbe eine nicht uninteressante Beschreibung „durch W o l f f g a n g u m J o b s t e n , der Arznei Doctorem und Physices, Professorem daselbst;” sein Werk heißt: „Kurze Beschreibung der alten löblichen Stadt Frankfurt an der Oder u. s. w. die dritte Edition. Nebst unterschiedenen historischen Accessionen, der Stat Frankfurt und herumliegende Gegenden belangende von Dr. B e c k m a n n . ” (Franckfurt an der Oder 1706). J o b s t nimmt indessen an d i e s e m Orte nur auf, was andre Historiographen vor ihm über diese „Inauguration” der neuen Universität Frankfurt erzählt haben, und so müssen wir auch die bekannteste dieser Beschreibungen der Feierlichkeit mittheilen. Der Königlich-polnische und Kurfürstlich-sächsische Historiograph, Hofrath T e n t z e l , beschrieb im Jahre 1694 die Inauguration oder feierliche Einweihung der Universität Frankfurt (am 26. April 1506) nach der ersten ausführlichen lateinischen Beschreibung des ersten Professors an der neuen Universität Dr. Axungia folgendermaßen: Zuförderst war das Collegium erbaut, dessen Baumeister S t e p h a n u s H u n d e m a r c k geheißen. Nachher sind Gelehrte durch öffentliche Programmata zur Bestellung der neuen Universität berufen worden. Axungia langte schon zu Anfang des Jahres 1505 in Frankfurt an, wurde als der Erste zum Professor ernannt und hielt seine Lectionen unter großem Beifall der schon anwesenden Studenten. Hierauf mehrte sich alltäglich die Anzahl der ankommenden Doctoren, Magister und Studenten, und am 26. April zählte man von den letzteren bereits 600. Der Kurfürst J o a c h i m I. hielt am Tage vor der Einweihung, am 25. April, seinen Einzug in die Stadt; in seiner Begleitung befanden sich sein [p. 31] Bruder A l b r e c h t nachmals Erzbischof zu Magdeburg und Kurfürst zu Mainz, der Hofstaat und das „reisige Zeug.” Der Kurfürst wurde vom Bischof D i e t r i c h z u L e b us empfangen, welcher auch am folgenden Tage, am 26. April, den Markgrafen A l b e r t in der St. Marienkirche zum Priester weihete, bei welcher Gelegenheit J o a c h i m v o n B ü l a u eine Festrede hielt. Nach der Feier hielt der Bischof das hohe Amt ab, worauf man sich zur kurfürstlichen Tafel verfügte. Nach beendigter Tafel stiegen der Kurfürst, sein Herr Bruder und der Bischof zu Pferde und ritten nach dem Westthor, der Gubenschen Vorstadt, zu. Die Professoren Axungia und Aesticampianus befanden sich ebenfalls in der Begleitung der genannten hohen Herrschaften zu Pferde. Bei der Kirche St. Gertraut stieg der Kurfürst J o a c h i m vom Pferde und empfing die Corporation der Universität, in sehr freundlicher Weise. Hierauf setzte sich die Procession in Bewegung. Voran gingen die Franciscaner-Mönche und die übrigen Geistlichen; ihnen „folgten die Fakultäten und die freien Künste, in ihrem gewöhnlichen Schmucke, wie sie beschrieben und gemalet werden.” Hinter diesen kamen Axungia und Aesticampianus, mit Epheu-Kränzen geschmückt, und dann die Pedelle mit ihren silbernen, vergoldeten Sceptern. Hierauf erblickte man den Professor Wimpina, den ersten Rector der neuen Universität (Rector Academiae) in der Mitte zwischen den Kurfürsten J o a c h i m und dessen Bruder, dem Markgrafen A l b e r t . Dann kam der Ordinarius, Professor B l a n k e n f e l d , geführt vom Bischof D i e t r i c h zu L e b u s und einem Herrn v o n D i e s k a u, Ritter des JohanniterOrdens. Nach ihnen zogen sechs Doctores, sechzig Magistri und die sechshundert Studenten, und zuletzt die Bürgermeister aus sämmtlichen Städten der Mark Brandenburg. In dieser Reihenfolge begab sich der Zug nach der [p. 32] Stadt in die Hauptkirche und „nachdem sie in die Stühle getreten hat Sebastianus S t u b l i n g e r , Utriuspue Juris Doctor und Churfürstlicher Orator die erste Rede gehalten, worauf der Ordinarius ein Gleiches that, der sodann auch dem Kurfürsten im Namen der

Universität Dank abstattete. Hierauf hat der Bischof zu Lebus, D i e t r i c h , die Inauguration der Universität vorgenommen; zuförderst dem lieben Gott gedankt, sodann dem Kurfürsten und Alberto” die Universität empfohlen, und dem Rectori die beiden Scepter, den Decanis der vier Fakultäten aber die offenen Bücher und Siegel übergeben, mit beigesetzter Erklärung.” Endlich hat der Professor Axungia den Actum mit einer Lobrede auf beide Fürsten und auf die freien Künste, welche Rede länger als eine Stunde gedauert, beschlossen. Hierauf waren die kurfürstlichen Privilegia vom kurfürstlichen Secretario, Johanne S c h r a g , öffentlich verlesen worden, damit Jedermann der Anwesenden, derer viel tausend gewesen, dieselben verstehen möchte.” Nach diesem ist musicirt worden und omnes bonarum literarum Candidati sind von dem kurfürstlichen Oratore zur Abendmahlzeit geladen und wohl traktirt worden. Hierüber sagt der lateinische Auctor der Beschreibung unter Anderm: „Nec aberat a quacunque mensa tam splendida Creticum vinum nec pocula aurea argenteaque vino omnis generis coronata convivis deerant.” Der Kurfürst hatte über der Tafel mit seinem Herrn Bruder Alberto und Bischof D i e t r i c h e n viel gelehrte und kluge Discurse geführt, und bezeuget, daß ihm derselbe Tag eben so lieb und angenehm als sein Gebuhrtstag wäre.” – Der erwähnte T e n t z e l sagt mit Bezug hierauf; „Quare tu Joachime adeo oblectatus es, ut nec natalem diem dulciorem tibi fuisse palam diceres!” – Die oben erwähnten Privilegien des [p. 33] Kurfürsten und seines Bruders A l b r e c h t betreffend, so hatten sie folgenden merkwürdigen Eingang: „Von Gottens Gnaden, Wir J o a c h i m , des Heil. Röm. Reichs Ertz-Kämmerer und Churfürst etc. Und A l b r e c h t , Gebrüder, Marggraffen zu Brandenburg etc. bekennen und thun kund vor Uns, unsere Erben und Nachkommen, der Marggraffen zu Brandenburg mit diesem unserm offenen Briefe vor Allermänniglichen, die ihn sehen, hören oder lesen: Alß wir dem Allmächtigen Gott zu Lobe der Jungfrauen Marien und allem himmlischen Heere zu Ehre und Lobe und gemeinen Nutz und Frommen der Christl.

JACOB BARTSCH 1600–1633 For further details see Handbook, B-13 (I, 130–132). Adam Morawiec (see below) writes: ‘Jacob Bartsch [was] Kepler’s son in law – he is usually remembered only as such, and gets mentioned only in Kepler’s biographies as a secondary, background figure, a helper, sometimes almost as a sort of his amanuensis or servant. Yet, when looked upon from a local, regional point of view – be it Laubanese, Lusatian or Silesian – his career seems to be so big, so enormous as to call for a closer look. Not very popular with the historians of science, Bartsch has nevertheless been noticed by the historians of literature. It seems that the best biography of him so far is to be found in Flood’s biographical lexicon of poets laureate, a sort of the Dictionary of Poetic Biography. ‘The best so far’, however, does not mean ‘perfect’, or even ‘the best possible’: Indeed, it is fairly easy to improve on Flood’s biography of Jacob Bartsch, though we will not do it here.’ Secondary literature ADAM MORAWIEC (Institute of Mathematics, University of Wrocław, Wrocław, Poland), From Lauban for laurels – the bio-bibliography of Michael Bartsch (1592– 1642)’ [pre-print kindly supplied by the author].

Bio-bibliographies

The entry in the Handbook states: ‘Michael Bartschius, who became Doctor of Medicine and counsellor at Liegnitz, was born c. 1592 at Schweidnitz, and died on 30 June 1642.’ Thanks to the careful research of Adam Morawiec (Institute of Mathematics, University of Wrocław), to whom the following account is greatly indebted, this outline of his life can now be corrected and amplified. Dr Morawiec writes as follows. Bartsch was born, not at Schweidnitz (in Silesia), but at Lauban, as evidenced by the fact that in the titles of Bartsch’s own works or ones dedicated to him he is consistently called ‘Lauba-Lusatius’, i.e. ‘from Lauban in Lusatia’, both by others and himself alike. In this respect, see in particular the prints published in Prague and Strasbourg. Take for instance his collection of anagrams published in Strasbourg in 1618. It contains exactly one hundred anagrams and epigrams dedicated to a slightly fewer number of people, as some are subject of more than one anagram/ epigram. Out of that hundred, nineteen anagram/epigram pairs are dedicated to eighteen people from Lauban, while only one is dedicated to somebody from the city of Schweidnitz and one other to an officer of the Schweidnitz principality. This seems to indicate Michael Bartsch’s strong connection with Lauban versus almost non-existent bond to Schweidnitz. Among the eighteen people from Lauban, the dedicatees of the anagrams, we find Lauban town councillors, clergy, and school people, so people who could generally play a role of patrons (councillors [= counsellors?]) to a university student and those who otherwise could have strongly influenced the early life of an adolescent (church and school people). We also find two more Bartsches there: Michael and Jacob. Except their family name, there is nothing in the anagrams or poems dedicated to them that would suggest that they are Michael’s family. Nevertheless, they are. One Jacob Bartsch wrote a collection of anagrams similar to that of Michael’s: IAC. BARTSCHII Lauba-Lusati, P. L. Cæs. ANAGRAMMATVM, EPIGRAMMATVM, CARMINVM aliorum MISCELLORVM FASCICVLVS Ad FAVTORES, PRÆCEPTORES, AMICOS Venerandos, Colendos scriptus & editus ARGENTINÆ M.DC.XXII. Martio Typis Marci ab Heiden….. In it, he included an anagram/epigram pair dedicated to one Michael Bartsch, which he introduced as follows: Clarißimo Præstantißimoq3 VIRO Dn. MICHAELI BARTSCHIO Laub. V. I. C. & P. L. C. Patrueli ut unico, ita dilectißimo, Reverendi Dn. PARENTIS cognominis Obitum peregre lugenti, Ann. 1621. August.

So, this Michael Bartsch originated from Lauban and was a poet laureate (and a law student). Thus there seems to be little doubt that he is identical with Michael Bartsch described here. Further, Jacob calls Michael ‘patruelis’, i.e. ‘cousin’ (on his father’s side), and says that Michael had the same name as his father (‘parentis cognominis’). Finally, Jacob says that

Bartsch, Michael

Michael is mourning his (i.e. Michael’s) father’s death in August of 1621. In the Bolesławiec Branch of the State Archives in Wrocław, there is a manuscript chronicle of Lauban (Annales Laubanenses by Christoph Wiesner, in: APWr-Bol, AMLub, Sign. 2256.), where under the year 1621, we find the following entry (p. 1385, fourth entry): Den 27. Aug. ist herr Michael Bartsch Laubanus, Pfarrer zu Gruna, seines alters in 63. Jahres mit Tode abgangen.

Thus, since there is a very good agreement between the date of death of Michael Bartsch, rector in Gruna (now Gronów in Poland), and that of Michael Bartsch, Jacob Bartsch’s uncle, they would seem to be the same person. Thus there were Michael Bartsches, father and son: father (senior) was a clergyman, while his son (junior) was a poet laureate. Since Michael Bartsch Sr died in August 1621 at the age of 63, he had to be born c. 1558. Because like his son he is consistently described as ‘Laubanus’ or ‘Laubanensis’, we may assume that he was born in Lauban. It is very likely that he is thus identical with Mich.[ael] Bartsch Lauban.[ensis] who in the winter semester of 1577 was recorded in the matriculation list of the University of Leipzig (ERLER 1909: 16). By 1607 he was already rector in Gruna, and an author of Specimen Postillæ Cathecheticæ, Das ist Probstück einer Postillen…durch Michaelem Bartsch vom Lauban Pfarrnern zu Gruna…Zu Görlitz in Ober Lausitz druckts Johann Rhambaw. 1607 (VD17 23:714466Z; Wrocław UL: Sign. 300176). As for Michael Bartsch’s education, he almost certainly attended the school at Lauban. an assumption that seems to get additional strength from the fact that, in his collection of anagrams/epigrams referred to above, Bartsch included three people connected with education in Lauban: Joannes Albinus, town councillor and school inspector; Melchior Hause, schoolmaster (‘rector’, 1611–20), and Georgius Cverchovius (probably Kirchhof), schoolteacher (‘collega’). After that he may have attended one of the gymnasia in the vicinity, such as at Goldberg, Görlitz, Beuthen/Oder, or St. Maria Magdalena or St. Elisabeth in Breslau. Indeed, in Bartsch’s collection of anagrams there is an anagram/epigram pair dedicated to rector of the gymnasium in Görlitz, to ‘M.[agister] Elias Cuchlerus, Poeta Laureatus (GymnasI Gorlicensis Rector)’. Then, there are two more dedicated to two rectors of the gymnasium in Rosenberg, to ‘Mic(h)ael Ge(h)lerus Goerlitius Doctor (Illustriß.[imi] GymnasI Rosenbergiaci in Bohemiæ Rector)’, and to ‘Mel.[chior] Agricola SiL.[esius] Philologus & Poëta Cæs.[areus] Nobilis, Jllustriss.[imi] Gymnasi Rosenbergiaci Pro-Rector’, as well as several more dedicated to various other schoolmasters. After school Bartsch studied first at the University of Prague, entering perhaps around 1609. In 1613 ‘Michael Bartschius Lauba-Lusatius’ is attested as a respondent in a legal disputation.

Bio-bibliographies

Thereafter Bartsch’s career can be followed almost throughout his entire adult life. In 1614, perhaps while still in Prague or soon thereafter, he published a poem dedicated to a newly-constructed Protestant church of St. Salvator in Prague; at about the same time he also contributed small poems to works by others (see JOSEF HEJNIC, JAN MARTINEK, Enchiridion renatae poesis Latinae in Bohemia et Moravia cultae, vol. 1, A–C, Praha 1966, p. 167). In 1615 he and his father were among the contributors to a booklet dedicated to Abraham Friese, a pastor in Liegnitz, on his introduction there. Bartsch did not stay long in Prague: already in 1616 we find him in Strasbourg, on the evidence of his own publications. During his stay in Strasbourg, between 1616 and 1618, he published seven works of his own, had one work dedicated to him, and further contributed occasional verse to five collections printed in Strasbourg between 1617 and 1620, four of them dedicated to professors of law. Among his works was another legal disputation of his, this time under Joachim Cluten[ius] Megapolitanus, a law professor at Strasbourg. Evidently, therefore, Bartsch was primarily a student of law (not of medicine, as stated in the Handbook). His studies at Strasbourg seem to have ended around 1618 or 1619 at the latest, because in that year he also published something at Oels. It seems that he did not obtain any formal qualification – the only time he is accorded any kind of title is in an epigram dedicated to him by his cousin Jacob Bartsch in 1621, where Michael is designated as ‘V. I. C.’, i.e. ‘Vtriusque Iuriis Candidatus’. Nevertheless, he did receive a title effectively regarded as equivalent to doctor’s degree, viz. that of ‘Poeta Laureatus Caseareus’ – but at Basle, on 8 July 1618, and was performed by Johann Jakob Grasser. In the Handbook, it was not possible to take account of the actual diploma; the account was based on second-hand accounts by Sagittarius and by Selden, and a collection of gratulatory poems dedicated to Bartsch on the occasion of his laureation. (Selden’s account must be treated with caution as he tries to directly involve Nikolaus Reusner, who died c. 1602, into Bartsch’s laureation of 1618 (!). However, a copy of Bartsch’s diploma does survive in Wrocław UL (shelf mark 559771). The opening and closing sentences read: IOHANNES IACOBVS GRASSERVS BASIL. SACRI ROMANVS. BENEVOLO LECTORI SALVTEM.

PALATII COMES ET EQVES, CIVIS

Siquidem Poesin nemo qui revera Poeta est, absq; cœlesti afflatu prorsus consequitur, maximis iis’q; ęternis honoribus omnes … Actum Basileæ IIX. Iulij Anno Salutis humanæ ∞Iↄ C X I I X [= 1618].

Besides the standard laureation formulas, it contains a poem by Grasser, published later in the collection of poems dedicated to Michael Bartsch on his laureation: Votivae adclamationes in laurum apollinarem Mich. Bartschii Lauba-Lusati, Strasbourg 1618.

Bartsch, Michael

35

After his laureation Bartsch returned to Silesia. In 1619, he publishes in Oels what might be his record long anagram (approx. 400 characters), and in Görlitz an occasional poem. In turn, in 1620, he writes an inscription into the ‘album amicorum’ of Martin Rauscher, professor at the University of Tübingen, so he seems to be there. Then he vanishes for the next three years, only to resurface again in Silesia in 1623, when his friends offer him a collection of occasional poems published in Schweidnitz on his second marriage, with one Helena Burchard. A year later, he receives another such collection, this time on the occasion of the birth of his son. In the meantime, he manages to get appointed counsellor to the prince of Liegnitz (and Brieg), as on the title page of this latter collection he is designated as ‘Illustriss.[imi] Principi Lignicensi á Consiliis’. He also seems to have settled in Schweidnitz for good, as the remaining two of his works, unfortunately both undated, are directly connected with this town. Indeed, on the front page of one of them, dedicated to Thomas Schram – a city officer in Schweidnitz –, Bartsch is described as ‘Senator ibid.’ The other is a collection of Bartsch’s anagrams dedicated to several important persons of Schweidnitz. This is almost the last we hear of him, though between 1623 and 1630 we can still find him mentioned in numerous letters of Matthias Bernegger (see ALEXANDER REIFFERSCHEID, Quellen zur Geschichte des geistigen Lebens in Deutschland wahrend des siebzehnten Jahrhunderts. I. Briefe G. M. Lingelsheims, M. Berneggers und ihrer Freunde, Heilbronn 1889, pp. 170-1 (letter no. 126), 330 (no. 269), 354 (no. 290), 404 (no. 333), 864 (note 325). Finally, we learn from Cunrad (1612–1685), roughly his contemporary, that Bartsch died on 30 June 1642 in Breslau.

MARGARETHA BARBARA BIRKMANN BURCKMANN; MARGARET(H)A BARBARA SCHUL(T)ZIN 12 April 1734–16 November 1801 Date of laureation: 27 November 1758 Place of laureation: Nuremberg for Helmstedt (in absentia) Performed by/on behalf of: Dr Jakob Wilhelm Widmann on behalf of Karl, Duke of Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel For further details see Handbook, B–49 (I, 192). Born at Nuremberg, the eldest child of the pietist Christian Birkmann (1703–1771), she was well educated by her father, learning Latin, French, Italian and Greek, as well as geography, history, drawing, calligraphy and music. The Neues historisches Hand-Lexikon (2nd edn, Ulm 1800) says of

him: ‘Er hatte viele Einsicht in die Mathematik, und einen weitläufigen Briefwechsel, durch den er sich bekannt machte. Seine Gattinn, Sophia Magdalena, und seine Tochter, Margaretha Barbara, haben sich durch Gedichte bekannt gemacht.’ Like her father, Margaretha was admitted to membership of the ducal Teutsche Gesellschaft at Helmstedt in 1753 (a year after her father), and they were also members of the similar society at Altdorf, of which Regina Louise Dilthey, née Hegenwald, the wife of the reformed theologian Leopold Friedrich August Dilthey, the brother of Polyxene Christiane Auguste Büsching, née Dilthey, (q.v.) also became an honorary member in 1760. Her diploma specifically records that she was ‘wegen ihrer Geschicklichkeit bereits bekant’ and had made herself famous ‘durch kleine piecen’ (ZIMMERMANN 1914: 139). Among her papers the hand-written poem ‘Die wunderbare Führung der Kinder Gottes betrachtete an dem Stromer-Oelhafischen Vermählungs-Feste M. B. Burkmännin’ survives. Two days after the official conferment of the title Franz Dominikus Häberlin, Pro-rector of Helmstedt University wrote to the Nuremberg physician Dr Jakob Wilhelm Widmann asking him to present her with the diploma, laurel and a personal letter. As early as 12 December 1758 the theologian and natural scientist Johann Hieronymus Chemnitz (1730–1800) sent an interesting letter from Vienna, which was later published in his Kleine Beyträge zur Testaceotheologie oder zur Erkäntniß GOttes aus den Conchylien (Nuremberg: Seligmann, 1760): ‘Viertes Sendschreiben von meinen Hülfsmitteln zu einiger Käntniß der Conchyliologie zu gelangen an die HochEdel Wohlgelehrte und Tugendreiche Jungfer Margaretha Barbara Bürckmännin zu Nürnberg Kaiserlich gecrönten Poetin, auch Ehrenmitglieds der teutschen Gesellschaften zu Helmstädt, und in Altdorf’ (pp. 67–106). On the surface the letter concerned a mutual interest in conchology, but perhaps other intentions lay beneath the surface. Here is an extract (for which I am indebted to Sabine Koloch): Sie verwenden Dero Zeit und Kräfte auf lauter edle und lobenswerthe Bemühungen, welche Jhnen und Jhrem Geschlecht Ehre machen, welche auch schon längst mit dem Lorber cecrönet worden. Sie wollen Dero anvertrautes Pfund nicht vergraben noch in ein Schweißtuch verbergen: sondern damit auf die löblichste Weise zur Ehre GOttes, zur Ausbreitung der Religion und Tugend, und zur Beförderung des guten Geschmacks, wuchern. Oft bieten Sie Dero Kräfte in der Dichtkunst auf, um in Psalmen und geistlichen lieblichen Liedern den GOtt und Heiland zu besingen, den wir mit allen was in und an uns ist, mit allen unsern Fähigkeiten und Empfindungen loben solten. Oft beschäftigen Sie sich mit den Sprachen und schönen Wißenschaften, und sonderlich wenden Sie viel Bemühungen an eine mehrere Vollkommenheit in Dero Muttersprache zu erlangen. Auch pflegen Sie einige Nebenstunden der Betrachtung und Sammlung natürlicher Seltenheiten, darunter die Conchylien [= Schalen der Weichtiere] gleichfals ihren Platz haben, zu widmen. Ew.

Andreas Roerelius, a former pupil of Brülow’s, wrote the following lines about his time studying under him in Strasbourg: Promeruit diuturna graves absentia poenas BRÜLOVI Musae fautor amande meae. Nostris exhibitor curis concreditus iram Sollicitat flecti voce precante tuam. Octiduo charos elapso invisit amicos; Sustulit hoc biduum, Musicae, ut inquit, amor, Condones veniam, votis contendo: Futurum Spondeo discipulum de meliore nota. Classica quod tribui voluit sibi lectio tempus, utile privatum reddidit id studium. (Long absences were rewarded with severe punishment, Brülow, dear helper of my muse. The tutor, conversant with our worries, calls forth your anger while asking for mercy. A week later he visits dear friends. Love of music has, he says, allowed two days to elapse. If you permit, I will endeavour as promised to be a better pupil, and the time which has been devoted to studying classical languages has made private study a useful thing.)

Brusch was born in Schlaggenwald, now Horní Slavkov, in northern Bohemia in 1518. In 1519 the family moved to Eger (Cheb) where he attended school and consequently added Egranus to his name. He continued his schooling at Hof before attending the universities of Tübingen, Wittenberg and Leipzig. He was murdered on the road from Rothenburg to Windsheim in 1557.

ANTON BURMEISTER fl. 1647/70 For further details see Handbook, B–96 (I, 263). According to NDB, he was the father of Franz Joachim Burmeister (q.v., Handbook B–97). He was born at Lüneburg and became cantor at St Michaelis there, and later pastor at Dahlenburg, though, according to recent information relating to Johannes Burmeister (see B–98 below), this man died already in 1634. However, CERL thesaurus cnp00460433. gives his date of death as 1670. At any rate, it seems unlikely that he is to be identified with Anton Philipp Burmeister, Filanton in the PBO and author of Pegnesisches Schäfergedicht in den Nördgauer Gefilden (1648) (on him see CERL thesaurus cnp00667713 and JÜRGENSEN 2006: 183–5).

JOHANNES BURMEISTER 1576–23 August 1638 Date of laureation: 15 July 1600 Place of laureation: Jena Performed by/on behalf of: Nikolaus Reusner on behalf of Rudolph II For further details see Handbook, B–98 (I, 265–266). The following information on Burmeister was kindly supplied by Michael Scott Fontaine (12.6.2013): Joannes Burmeister was born in 1576 at Lüneburg, and died at Uelzen, on August 23, 1638 at the age of 63 or 64. He was buried there four days later, on August 27. He was laureated on July 15, 1600, and in published works thereafter he invariably styled himself Joannes Burmeister, Lunaeburgius (-icus, -ensis), p.l.c. Unlike most Latin poets of the time, Burmeister was not a schoolmaster but a Lutheran priest by profession. He spent most of his ecclesiastical and literary career, from 1603–1628, as pastor of St. Peter’s church in Gülzow (Gülzau), in Schleswig-Holstein. In June 1594 he matriculated at Rostock University to study theology. In 1601 was ordained deacon in Lauenburg on the Elbe, where in 1628 he returned as General Superintendent and Pastor. From 1635 until his death in 1638 he served as Provost of Uelzen. The only notable disturbance in this seemingly quiet life took place in 1628, when harassment by (probably) Croatian troops under the command of Count Tilly during the Thirty Years War forced him to flee Gülzow for Hamburg. It was during the year he spent there in refuge that he wrote Aulularia.

Bio-bibliographies

There is a minor comedy of errors over the man’s basic identity. Most modern reference books state hesitantly or decisively that Joannes was one of five Burmeister brothers, all of them musical or intellectual and prominent in Lüneburg: Joachim (1564–1629), the musical theorist and composer, then Anton (died 1634, who also matriculated at Rostock, in May 1594), cantor of St. Michael’s Church in Lüneburg, Georg (died 1624), principal of the attached school, and Franz, organist at Lüneburg’s St. Lamberti Church. These authorities also state that his parents were Joachim Burmeister, a beadworker, and his wife Margarete, from Soltau. This genealogy is incorrect. In poem 12.52 of his Martial, Joannes reveals that his parents were named Albert and Elise, née Wolf, and that they both died in 1608, a mere week apart, when Joannes will have been 31 or 32 years old. The poem is headed Beatissimus manibus cariss[imis] meorum parentûm, ‘A Blessed Son to the Memory of his Dearly Beloved Parents,’ and in the right-hand margin are printed the words ALBERTI BURMEISTERI & ELISAE VVolFIAE in uno octiduô denatorum Anno FIDo in ChrIstUM, ‘Albert Burmeister and Elise Wolf, who died in the same week in the year of Christian faith’. The raised capitals of the chronogram indicate the year (MDCVIII - 1608). Verses 3-8 read: Heic situs est conjux tuus ille ALBERTUS, ELISA: Cujus & ipse tui flagrat amore cinis. Dulcis in Elysio vos junget vita roseto, heic diversa licet vos monumenta tegant. Tu prior his terris pater ad vada sancta migrâsti: Illa virum voluit non remorata sequi. Here lies your husband, that wonderful Albertus, Elise: even his very ashes are burning with love for you. May a sweet life join you both in Elysian rosebeds, though here different tombs cover you both. You, father, travelled from this earth to the holy shallows first; she wanted to follow her husband without delay.

Whether suicide, contagion, or tragic coincidence, the double death must have been bracing. It thus remains unclear what Joannes’ relationship might have been to the four Burmeister brothers just mentioned. It is likely they were paternal cousins; at any rate, the men did know each other. Joachim Burmeister’s Musica Autoschediastike of 1601 bears a rather perfunctory epigram by Joannes. Georg Burmeister contributed celebratory epigrams to Joannes’ Saturnalia, Mater-Virgo, and Martialis, the last of which hails him as Burmeisteriadum Jane perenne decus, ‘O Joannes, eternal glory of the Burmeister descendants’.

Burmeister, Johannes

Five years after entering Rostock, on June 24, 1599 (the feast of St. John the Baptist), he publicly recited in the university’s Collegium maius an epic poem of his own composition on John the Baptist. Published in Rostock by the printer Christoph Reusner (c. 1575–1637), the epic poem became his first public work. One year later, in Jena on July 15, 1600, the polymath and Count Palatine Nikolaus von Reusner (1545–1602: no evident relation to Christoph) crowned him an Imperial Poet Laureate. Though the title was hardly rare at this time, he was immensely proud of it. For the rest of his life he vaunted it on the title pages and signed epigrams of all his works. In fact, twenty-one years after the event he reprinted in Mater-Virgo an epigram (M-V fragment IX) celebrating his laureation written by the poet Michael Maier (1566–1622) (q.v., Handbook M–5 (I, 1228)). A copy of the laureation diploma, shown here, is held in Jena ULB (2 Hist.lit.VI,10[90]). The full text of the diploma reads:

Greetings and all good from God, the author of all salvation and good. Monuments of Rome’s ancient history bear witness that in the most ancient times of the Roman Republic, Apollo’s laurel was once the unique wish and special decoration and ornament, not only of the illustrious Caesars, but of sacred bards and poets as well. Consider: Firstly, in his Panegyric Claudian bears witness that already in the age of Ennius, according to a

Burmeister, Johannes

65

tradition of the Roman Senate and People, the laurel had accrued to poets; and Secondly, Ovid writes somewhere that his brow was wreathed with a sacred garland that public favour, against his will, had set upon him. Yet that venerable custom of crowning poets upon the Capitol in Rome as if they were triumphant generals, later passed so far into desuetude that for 1300 years, virtually no one is recorded as having been decorated with that honor. At long last, by the auspices of Robert, King of Sicily, in 1342 that obsolete custom was once more brought back into use in Rome; whereby to a full crowd on the Capitol Francesco Petrarch of Florence was first created and declared Poet Laureate. In later time it became the unique and special right and privilege of Roman princes and Caesars to crown with laurel such poets as they deemed worthy, so doing either personally or through the Counts of the Sacred Palace as ministers and proxies. And so: WHEREAS, Among all the other magnificent privileges pertaining to a Count Palatine that the most sacred and invincible prince, Lord Rudolph II, has most graciously bestowed upon Us, this magnificent right of naming poets and crowning them with laurel has also been conferred on Us; VERILY SO Have We, invested with that authority and power, made, created, and declared you, JOANNES BURMEISTER of Lüneburg, a POET LAUREATE. The many published products of your talent show quite abundantly that you are a fervent student of poetry and that you have already been successfully engaged in studying it for many years; We have done so favouring, as is appropriate, your ability and your liberal-minded inclination toward study, by setting a laurel upon you and handing over a ring. What is more, by possessing the present diploma We make, create, and declare you so in optima forma. Accordingly, too, We give and grant you the power and possibility, full and of every kind, from this time forward, of: publicly reading, reciting, teaching, writing, discussing, interpreting, and commenting everywhere, in the field of aforementioned poetry, in all cities, states, communities, universities, colleges and academies of the whole Roman Empire, in wheresover place or land, without any hindrance or counter argument; moreover, Making and executing all other poetic actions that all other poets and those marked by the poetic laurel are accustomed to make and do; finally, Using, possessing, obtaining, and enjoying all and individually ornaments, trappings, privileges, prerogatives, exemptions, freedoms, concessions, honors, dignities, preeminences, favours, and indulgences that all other poets use, possess, obtain, and enjoy, in any fashion, whether by custom or by right, Provided there be no interference from any laws or customs that somehow could interfere with this imperial concession and courtesy – such customs or laws, that is, as the authority of Our imperial privilege has absolutely wished to restrict, and that We, charged with that authority, do restrict and wish to be sufficiently restricted with respect to the execution of the present duties. We do so through the testimony of this diploma, which has been validated by the subscription of Our hand and the impress of Our seal. Enacted and signed in Jena upon Saale in Our Leorine city residence (?), July 15, 1600, in the reign of the most sacred and glorious RUDOLPH II, in his 25th year as Holy Roman Emperor, 28th as king of Hungary, and 25th as king of Bohemia. In the 13th indict.

Ten months after the laureation ceremony, Burmeister was ordained a deacon at Lauenburg upon Elbe. On May 8, 1601, two days before the ordination, he signed the local copy of Andreas Pouchenius’ 1585

On May 8, 1601, the very day of my examination, I, Joannes Burmeister of Lüneburg, poet laureate, assented to this ecclesiastic ordination and its prophetic and apostolic writings. I have directed my life and training to it as if to a touchstone. I am to be ordained on the 10th day of this same month.

Two years later, in 1603, Burmeister took up his post as pastor in Gülzow. At some point in 1608 his parents died. On September 13 of that same year he delivered a consolatio mortis in the parish church on behalf of a young noblewoman, Anna Beyschwangt (July 24, 1577–August 25, 1608). who had died in childbirth three weeks earlier. The speech was later printed in Uelzen.

On October 9, 1614 the pastor hosted a formal visit to the Gülzow church of St. Peter by Johannes Erhardi, the superintendent, who five years later would write a preface to Burmeister’s Saturnalia, dated February 6, 1619. In 1620, six years after the visitation, a bronze bell was added to the church tower in Gülzow. It hangs there still. Along with giving the name of the bellmaker, Pawel Vos, an inscription on it records that one Valentin Schack, made a donation of 200 Lübeckian marks toward casting it in Lüneburg, ‘in the year 1620…when H[err] Johan Burmeister, P.L.C., was Pastor of Gülzow’ (anno christi 1620…als h iohan bvrmeister p.l.c. pastor zu gultzow war).

[C–13] JOHANNES CASELIUS KESSELIUS 18 May 1533–9 April 1613 Date of laureation: 1563 For further details see Handbook, C–13 (I, 296–301). Until 1559 Caselius, who was born at Göttingen, was called Kesselius. He came from the one-time noble family van Kessel from the Dutch province of Limburg. His father, Mathias Bracht (d. 1580), a Catholic cleric, had left Venlo for religious reasons and had found employment as a Latin school master in Göttingen in 1530. Here he married Katharina Kalebarth c. 1531. Caselius atteneded Latin schools in Northeim, Gandersheim and Nordhausen, where Basilius Faber and Michael Neander awakened his love for Greek. He enrolled at Wittenberg on 3 September 1551 and received his MA on 3 August 1553. He studied Greek under Georg Cracov, Veit Örtel and Melanchthon, whom he revered greatly. Then he studied under Camerarius in Leipzig. With the support of Duke Johann Albert of Mecklenburg he was able to go to Italy from 1560 to 1563; he studied at Salerno, Bologna (with Carolus Sigonius) and Florence. Far and away his best teacher, he said, was Petrus Victorius, whose commentaries on Aristotle later provided the foundation for his own lectures on ethics, politics and rhetoric. From 1563 to 1565 he was Professor of Greek Philosophy at Rostock. To avoid the plague, he went to Italy again from 1565 to 1568, making contact with Italian humanists. On 28 January 1566 he became Doctor of Canon and Civil Laws at Pisa, and on 14 December 1567, with the assistance of the imperial physician Crato von Craftheim, he received from Maximilian II a diploma raising him to the nobility and confirming his old coat of arms. 1568 found him back in Rostock as Professor of Eloquence. From 1570 to 1574 he tutored Prince Johann of Mecklenburg at Schwerin, and on 30 September 1571 he married Gertrud, daughter of the Mecklenburg counsellor Andreas Mylius, who would bear him five sons and four daughters. The years 1574–1590 saw him as a professor at Rostock again, but then he transferred to the University of Helmstedt where he became Professor of Greek, Rhetoric and Philosophy, and served for a time as pro-rector. He died at Helmstedt in 1613. At the turn of the sixteenth century he was the most prominent German humanist. His output was extensive – some five hundred items,

mostly short, and a large number of letters from his pen are known (many of the latter not hitherto published). His writings include many occasional pieces for graduations, marriages and funerals, editions of Greek authors for use as textbooks, poems in Latin and Greek, and various other things. He corresponded with many leading European humanists including Casaubon, Lipsius, Muretus, Scaliger, Sigonius, and Victorius. Famed for the elegance of his Latin and his enthusiasm for Greek, he compiled a model curriculum for a Latin school, De ludo litterario aperiendo, which was republished six times between 1579 and 1669, in which he advocated attention to the German language and a humanist education, physical exercise and a later educational tour, culminating in the study of the Homeric epics and Aristotle’s works at university, in order to fashion morally intact, happy and politically capable young men. Later humanists, such as Jakob Burckhard, still regarded him as a model.2 Further works BORSA C323–C356. Further editions CONRAD HORNEIUS, ed., I. Caselii Operum, P.

Zäunemannin. Kitzingen, den 1. Merz 1738. J. C. Schneider aus Francken, Candid. Jur. Ganz Deutschland stack vor Zeiten In dicker Finsterniß: der Sprache Lieblichkeiten, Die Dichtkunst, Geist und Witz war alles unbekannt; Als hätt es ein Gesetz aus unserm Reich verbannt: Da hätt kein Schlesier die Finsterniß bezwungen; In Sachsen wurde noch kein Deutsches Lied gesungen, Biß Celtes, jener Held, die Barbarey bezwang, In unsern Franckenland am allerersten sang, Der Deutschen Welt den Weg zum steilen Pindus wiese Und manchen tapfern Geist als Schüler hinterliese. Dis war der grosse Held der hier die Zitter schlug Und in den Deutschen Reich die erste Krone trug: Die Musen hatten Ihn das Dichten eingegeben; Sein Beyspiel mußt alsdenn das ganze Reich beleben.

JOHANNES CRÜGER fl. 1603/07 For further details see Handbook, C–67 (I, 386–388). The name Johann(es) Crüger was not uncommon: CERL thesaurus lists thirty-two bearers of it. The poet came from Berlin and became a pastor at Stettin. He signs as ‘Iohannes Crugerius Berol. March. P.L.C.’ in HPGEBA 17: 0461 (Frankfurt/Oder, 1602) and as ‘Iohannes Crugerius Berol. March. P.L.’ in HPGEBA 17: 0446 (Frankfurt an der Oder, 1602), which suggests that he was born not later than about 1580, so it seems unlikely that he can be identified with the man who lived from 1584 to 1616 (CERL thesaurus cnp01877837). It is more likely that it was an older namesake – perhaps this man’s father? – who was the poet. He is certainly not to be confused with Johann Crüger (1598–1662), on whom see CHRISTIAN BUNNERS, Johann Crüger (1598–1662): Berliner Musiker und Kantor, lutherischer Lied- und Gesangbuchschöpfer.

Dilthey, Polyxene Christiane Auguste

103

Polyxene Christiane Auguste was the daughter of Johann Heinrich Dilthey (c. 1670–1740) and his wife Agnes Katharina Weidemann. The latter enjoyed the favour of Charlotte Friederike Amalie of Nassau-Siegen (1702–1785), who, following the death of her first husband Prince Leopold von Anhalt-Köthen (1694–1728), had married Albrecht Wolfgang von Schaumburg-Lippe (1699–1748) in 1730. It was she who encouraged Polyxene to move to Stadthagen where she became a governess (LÜHMANN-FRESTER, 722). In 1755 Polyxene married the teacher, geographer and preacher Anton Friedrich Büsching (1724–1793), a close friend of her brother Leopold Friedrich August Dilthey. After their marriage they moved first to Göttingen, next to St Petersburg in 1761 and then to Altona in 1765, and finally in 1766 to Berlin where Büsching became director of the Graues Kloster school. Polyxene Dilthey’s poetry caught the interest of her fiancé, Büsching, who published some of her work, apparently without her knowledge, under the title Proben poetischer Uebungen eines Frauenzimmers (Altona, 1751). The esteem which her work enjoyed is evident from contemporary reviews in, for instance, the Hamburger Correspondent (1751, no. 134), the Hamburger Berichte von gelehrten Sachen (1751. no. 48, p. 351), and the Erlangische gelehrte Anmerckungen und Nachrichten, XXVII, Stück 1751. The success of the Proben was such that, on 9 April 1751, Büsching wrote to Johann Philipp Murray, secretary of the Deutsche Gesellschaft in Göttingen: Der Herausgeber beigehender Verse, nimt sich die Ehre Ew. Hochedelgeb. ein Exemplar davon zu senden. Vielleicht halten Sie die Jungfer Polyxena Christiana Augusta Dilthey in Stadhagen, als die Verfaßerin derselben, vor würdig, Sie unter die Mitglieder Ihrer Deutschen Gesellschaft aufzunehmen. Sie schreibt in ungebundener Rede wie ein Gelehrter, und behauptet unter den gelehrten Frauenzimmern einen ansehnlichen Platz (Göttingen NSUB: 8° P. germ. III, 7430; cited from LÜHMANNFRESTER, 726).

Enquiries were made of Carl Anton Doll, Superintendent at Stadthagen, as to Dilthey’s suitability. He replied: Sie lebet hier bei allen wegen ihrer treflichen Vorzüge in großer Achtung und ist die Dichtkünst nur eine ihrer geringsten Vorzüge. Denn außer derselben, besitzt sie in den Grundsätzen der Religion, der Musik, der Historie und Geographie, der französischen Sprache und andern Wißenschaften, eine so volkommene Einsicht, als man von einem Frauenzimmer fordern kan. [...] Mit einem Worte, sie ist, wie ich heilig und aufrichtig versichern kan, volkommen wert, daß ihr der Lorbeer-Kranz erteilet werde; und wird die Königl. deutsche Geselschaft gewis von der Aufnehmung die größte Ehre haben. (LÜHMANN-FRESTER, 727.)

Murray’s letter is accompanied by the following note: Ich habe geantwortet: das erste, neml. die Aufnahme in die Geselschaft, stünde bei uns; die Krönung aber kostete wengistens 10 Tr. [= Thaler] wolte man also die Polyxena gekrönet wißen, müßte das Geld erst daseyn.

Shortly afterwards, on 25 August 1751, Dilthey was elected an honorary member of the Deutsche Gesellschaft at Göttingen, and later she also became a member of the aristocratic Brunnengesellschaft at Karlsbad (SCHMITT / GOLDBECK, 46). The question of her laureation was first raised by the Helmstedt professor of theology Ernst August Bertling (1721–1769) at his own university. ZIMMERMANN, 1914, p. 135, states that laureations had at that time long since fallen out of use at Helmstedt – the last one had been that of Johann Jakob Brincken in 1715 (see Handbook, B–80). ZIMMERMANN suggests that the desire to reintroduce laureations at this time is connected with the aims of the various Deutsche Gesellschaften to pro-mote German poetry, but another factor was probably the growing desire during the Enlightenment to encourage and promote the education of women. Dilthey was elected on 11 October 1751 in the home of Franz Dominikus Häberlin (1720–1787), vice-rector of the university, in the presence of Häberlin himself, Georg Gott-fried Keuffel (1698–1771), Professor of Morals and Politics, Gottfried Ludwig Mencke (1712–1762), Professor of Laws, and Johann Lambrecht Cheru-bim (1709–1761), secretary to the university (ZIMMERMANN, 1914, p. 135). The diploma, dated 11 October, was reprinted by Büsching in February 1752 in the preface to the Uebungen in der Dichtkunst (fols. a6v–a8v). The reasons for her laureation were stated as follows:

Dilthey, Polyxene Christiane Auguste

105

Jn den vorigen Zeiten sahe man nicht genug auf die wahren Verdienste des Frauenzimmers, welche auf die Verbesserung des denkenden Geistes, einen eben so grossen Anspruch hat, als das männliche Geschlecht. Es zeigen uns zwar die verflossenen Jahrhunderte manches Exempel eines grossen, und tiefgelehrten Geistes unter dem schönen Geschlecht; und die Verdienste desselben bleiben nicht un-erkannt. Allein man lobte sie so, das selbst das Lob andere von der Nachahmung abschreckte. Man forderte um loben zu können, die Kenntniß gelehrter Sprachen, viele durchlesene Folianten, und eine grosse, obwohl unnuzbare Erkänntniß, die zu weiter nichts nütze, als mit vielen Anführungen Bücher zu schreiben, oder ein Lehramt auf einer hohen Schule zu führen. Wahre Verdienste, denen ein iedes Frauenzimmer nachjagen mus, bestehen in der wahren Verbesserung des Verstandes und des Willens. Eine Person, die diese Vorzüge besizet, darf der Welt nicht unbemerket bleiben. Die Bekanntmachung ihrer Verdienste reizzet zur Nachahmung, und diese Nachahmung macht das menschliche Geschlecht glüklich. Auch solche Verdienste sehen unsere Zeiten. Denn da die Dichtkunst eine besondere Uebung ist, worin sich auf eine besondere Art eine Seele, die Religion und Tugend kennet, und diese kostbare Schätze nebst ihren Nebenmenschen eifrig liebet, zeigen, üben und sich grösser machen kan: so hat man auch Frauenzimmer mit Würden zubelohnen gesuchet, deren Verdinste [!] hierin bekant geworden. [...]

It is worth mentioning that Dilthey was an excellent pianist. The illustration on the title page of her Uebungen in der Dichtkunst shows her at a piano, wearing the laurel. Häberlin informed Duke Karl of Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel of the matter on 28 October, and on the same day he wrote to Dilthey and to Carl Anton Doll, requesting the latter to present Dilthey with the diploma and the laurel. The laureation took place on 10 November 1751 in the presence of three countesses von Alverdissen. After Donop (see D–18a, below), Dilthey was the second woman from Westphalia to be laureated by the University of Helmstedt. Dilthey thanked the vice-rector on 13 November with an eight-strophe verse letter ‘An Se. Magnificenz, den

Herrn Vicerector Häberlin’ (reprinted in: Uebungen in der Dichtkunst, Halle 1752, pp. 8–11). Part of it reads: [...] Wünscht jene Dichterin ein Mann zu seyn, Um nur ihr Blut für Helden zu verspritzen: So ist mein Wunsch nur dieser ganz allein: O könnt ich bey der Schaar der Weisheits Schüler sitzen! Bleibt wahrlich meine Lust und labt mich ohn Verdrus; Der ewgen Weisheit Lohn darf meinen Fleis erhitzen. Hierzu nehm ich den Kranz mit Demut an, Den du mein Häberlin! mir zugesendet; Denn ob ich ihn gleich nie verdienen kann, So wird er doch von mir nur darzu angewendet, Daß sich mein Herz, mein Fleis, und meine kurze Zeit, Mit neuer Lust und Ernst GOtt und der Tugend weiht, Der schönen Wissenschaft Verehrung niemals endet.

At the end of the year the following report of the event was carried in the Braunschweigische Anzeigen (1751, no. 96, col. 1933): Den 11. des nächstverwichnen Octobers, ist von dem Hrn. D. Franz Dominicus Häberlin, als dermaligen Vicerector der Julius-Carls-Universität zu Helmstädt, und vermöge der vom Kayser Maximilian II. der itztgedachten Universität allergnädigst verliehenen, Comitiva Sacri palatii Lateranensis, Comite Palatino Caesareo, kraft dieser Würde anklebenden Macht, Gewalt und Freyheit, die Hochedle Jungfer Polyxena Christiana Augusta Dilthey, aus Stadthagen, der Königl. deutschen Gesellschaft in Göttingen Mitglied, wegen ihrer Geschicklichkeit in der Poesie, wovon sie schöne Proben herausgegeben, und wegen ihrer andern Tugenden und Verdienste zur Kayserlichen Poetinn gekrönet, und ihr darüber ein offener Brief ertheilet worden.

Around 1763 Dilthey wrote to her friend Johanne Charlotte Unzer about two encounters she had had with the Empress Catherine the Great of Russia: Sie hatte gehört, daß ich eine gekrönte Dichterin sey und händigte mir eine morgenländische Erzählung ein, betitelt Obidjah, demnächst zween Lustspiele, die wider Phantasterei und stockgläubige Verblendung eifern. Es erschreckte mich, als sie verlangte, ich solle ihr nach der Lectüre sagen, was ich davon halte. Etliche Wochen vergingen, da wurde ich zu ihr bestellt, des Abends, wo sie ganz allein war. Ich verschwieg es nicht, daß, wenn ich auch gebührend die Schriften honorabel fände, ich dennoch in Begriffen nicht so fest stände, um mit der eigenen Meinung hellköpfig zu werden. Sie lachte und fragte: weshalb ich eine gekrönte Dichterin sey? Ich antwortete ihr ohne Hehl: meine Freundin, die geschätzte Unzerin in Altona, habe durch Vermittlung des Prorectors Häberlin von der Universität Helmstädt die Dichterkrone erlangt, und da hättest Du sie mir ebenfalls beschafft, mehr aus Deiner Liebe als aus meinem Werth. Daß mich Büsching in den Frühlingstagen unsrer Bekanntschaft sogar zum Ehrenmitgliede der Göttingischen gelehrten Gesellschaft einregistriren ließ, habe

ich der Kaiserin wohlbedächtig verheimlicht; denn fiele es ihr ein, mich in der Gelehrsamkeit zu examiniren, hätte ich mich vor ihr zu verkriechen. (Cited from LÜHMANN-FRESTER, 722.)

Dilthey’s elevation to laureated poet did not please everybody. The young Christoph Martin Wieland (1733–1813) was especially critical: Der poetische Lorbeerkranz kann mich recht ärgern. Es ist nichts absurders und die Göttingische Akademie sollte sich schämen, dergleichen elende Gebräuche wieder aufzuwärmen. Erst neulich sandte Hr. Häberlin als zeitiger Rector von Helmstädt der Jungfer Dilthey von Stadthagen den Lorbeerkranz. Sie ist eine Zäunemannin, nur mit dem Unterschied, dass sie fromm ist, dahingegen die Zäunemannin eine halbe Amazon und Maitresse eines Sächsischen Herzogs war. (Christoph Martin Wieland: Briefwechsel, ed. SIEGFRIED SCHEIBE, 1: Briefe der Bildungsjahre (1. Juni 1750 - 2. Juni 1760), ed. HANS WERNER SEIFFERT, Berlin 1963, pp. 82–83.)

When she died, aged 48, in 1777, Büsching had her interred in their garden in Berlin. An epitaph was composed by the poet Karl Wilhelm Ramler (1725–1798), and a poem lamenting her death was written by Anna Louisa Karsch (1722–1791).

[D–16] KATHARINA MARGARETHA DOBENECKER CATHARINA MARGARETHA SCHWES(S)ERIN, DOBENECKERIN SILVIA (PBO) 14 November 1649–11 December 1683 Date of laureation: 25 November 1668 Place of laureation: Nuremberg Performed by/on behalf of: Sigmund von Birken For further details see Handbook, D–16 (II, 448–449).4 Born at Hof on 14 November 1649, the daughter of the musically and linguistically gifted lawyer and Brandenburg-Bayreuth court counsellor Johann Friedrich Schweser (1606– 1681) and his wife Margarethe Pertsch, the daughter of a superintendent at Wunsiedel – one of her cousins, Johann Georg Pertsch was also a P.L.C. (see Handbook, P–27). In 1672 she married the BrandenburgBayreuth courtier Johann Baptist Dobenecker (1622–1704). She was multi-talented. As early as 1804 FIKENSCHER wrote (pp. 411– 12): Hier, in Wunsiedel und in Baireut gehörig erzogen, zeigte sie vielen natürlichen Verstand, dem bald an dem nicht mehr genügte, was andere lernten, wie sie denn auch bei Verfertigung der FrauenzimmerArbeiten sehr reich an Erfindungen war und ihre Talente immer mehr zu bilden strebte. Die Musik, zu der sie natürliche Neigung führte, leitete sie zur Dicht-Kunst mit so glücklichem Erfolg, dass sie 1668 unter dem Namen Sylvia in den Pegnesischen BlumenOrden aufgenommen wurde. Da sie sich dann am 12 November 1672 mit dem KammerRath Dobenecker verheurathet hatte, mit demselben aber in einer kinderlosen Ehe lebte, so war auch jezt, neben der Erfüllung ihrer häuslichen Geschäfte, Nahrung für ihren Geist ihre liebste Beschäftigung, und zu dem Ende gab sie sich mit der DichtKunst, Malerei und Zeichenkunst

ab, und brachte es in derselben so weit, dass ihr selbst Meister ihren Beifall nicht versagen konnten. Sie gehörte daher unter die gebildetsten und gelehrtesten Frauenzimmer, deren dichterisches Talent man vorzüglich bewundern muss. Ja sie hatte ihre Sprache so gebildet, dass man ganz den Genius ihrer Zeit verkennt, Und glauben sollte, dass sie wenigstens 50 Jahre später gelebt hätte.

To begin with, her father refused to allow her laureation (KNOTHE, 2009: 252; SCHUSTER, 2009: 186), but once this difficulty had been overcome, Sigmund von Birken entrusted Maria Katharina Heden, née Fritsch (who became Stockfleth when she married in 1669) with the delicate task of arranging Dobenecker’s admittance to the PBO and the presentation of the laurel. Recalling his privilege as Count Palatine of awarding the laurel, he wrote on 25 November 1668: Machet Sie wissen, daß ich, der ich von dem Allerhöchst-Gekrönten, die Kunstdichtere mit Lorbeerlaub zu krönen, gefähigt und befehligt worden, die Kunstdichterinnen billig dieses Ehrkranzes für mitwürdig achte, und dannenhero Sie hiermit des DichterLorbeerKranzes empfänglich mache. Sie sage ich, die Süßdichtende Silvia, Silvia, als selbst eine Krone ihres Geschlechtes. Gebet Jhr ferner zuvernehmen, daß ich Sie gekrönet, nicht allein, weil Sie diese Ehre verdienet, sondern auch, damit unser Schäfer-Orden, welcher allein Gekrönte annimmet, mit Jhr als einem trefflichen Mitglied prangen möchte. (BIRKEN, Werke und Korrespondenz, 2, 2009, p. 728).

Maria Heden forwarded Birken’s letter only on 7 December, when she wrote: Es hat aber seiner [sc. Birken’s] Höflichkeit gefallen, die Ehre der Übergebung, die er doch selber viel glückseeliger ablegen könde, meiner wenigkeit anZubefehlen: weil er vielleicht bedenken getragen, vor den Augen einer Zarten Jungfer mit Kranz und Band, als gewöhnlichen Zeichen der Liebe oder VerEhlichung, Zu erscheinen: wohl wissend, das dergleichen Gaben, wann sie männliche Hände bringen, entsetzen und Nachdenken verursachen, von den Weiblichen hingegen sicher angenommen werden.

Heden continues by saying that the chaplet itself was a victory wreath woven from thirty hairs of the chaste Dafne [i.e Barbara Juliana Penzel] and enclosed her own poem offering her congratulations (dated already 6 June 1668): Edel-treffliche Sylvia. Wie seh ich die zierlichen Haare ümwunden mit Lorbeer, der Dichter Kunst herrlichem Preiß; die schneelichten hände vom Bande gebunden, das keinen berühret ohn arbeit und Fleiß. Sind dann im geschlecht der verachteten Frauen iezt Kronen und Lohnen der Künste zu schauen? Ach! Sylvien Göttlich-begeisterte Flammen

verdunkeln nit wenig das Männliche Liecht. die Tugend ist selbsten von Weiblichen Stammen. wer solte nit ehren ihr kluges Gedicht. Die wehrte Gesellschaft der Norischen Hirten wil Sylvien[s] Tugend so prächtig bewirten. Diß Dorilis ehret glückwünschet von fernen, ermundert durch Floridans grossen Befehl, vertrauend ihr Füncklein so glänzenden Sternen, und wünschend, daß bald sich mit ihnen vermähl die Sonne der Frauen und Fackel der Erden, durch welche der Orden ganz himlisch wird werden. Dieses sezte aus schuldigem gehorsam zum ehrenden Glückwunsch eilfärtig der hochgeschätzten Sylvie dienstverbundene Dorilis. (BIRKEN, Werke und Korrespondenz, 2, 2009, pp. 730f.)

Katharina Margaretha Dobnecker thanked Maria Katharina Heden for the gift ‘welches selbst die Hoffnung übertrifft, die sich nie erkühnet, mir solches einzubilden’, but modestly declared herself unworthy of it. On 2 February 1669 she also wrote to thank Birken for the ‘Vortrefflichste Geschenk’ (KRÖLL, 1978: 309) and enclosed the following poem: Was ist doch wohl der Eitle Schein der Ehre? was ist daß Glük der wankelbahre Ruhm? ein Schatten Bild, ein bald zerrissnes band! daß nie verdient des Sieges-Palmen-Kronen. Die Tugend nur, die kan uns Schön bekrönen: Und ausser der ist flüchtig alle Ehre; Die zieret uns mit grün-belaubten ruhm und Schenket auch ein Festes Ehren band. Wo sich die Kunst verbind't den Tugend band, da muß die zeit auch deren Namen krönen; (die sonst verhönt den Pracht und Eitle Ehre) Sie zeiget selbst der Nachwelt solchen Ruhm. Wer in der Kunst und Tugend sucht den Ruhm, der würd beknüpft mit solchen Ehren-band! die Sieges-Kron der Palmen muß ihn krönen; O Schöner Sieg! O Ewig Edle- Ehre. Silvia!

Katharina Margaretha Schweser, as she was now called, died at Kulmbach on 11 December 1683. Portrait: Copper engraving by Michael Fennitzer (see JÜRGENSEN, 2006: 301; KNOTHE, 2009: 252–54).

[D–18a] CHARLOTTE WILHELMINE AMALIE VON DONOP5 X.X. (pseud.) 28 December 1723–14 June 1800 Date of laureation: 10 November 1750 Place of laureation: Göttingen Laureated by: Jacob Wilhelm Feuerlein Charlotte Wilhelmine Amalie von Donop was born on 28 December 1723 at Altendonop near Lemgo as the daughter of the Droste von Donop. Orphaned as a child, she was brought up by an aunt at Horn near Bad Meinberg. Her guardian prevented her from studying philosophy at Göttingen. After her aunt died, she moved to Lemgo, where she lived for the rest of her life. In 1749 Donop was offered honorary membership of the KöniglichDeutsche Gesellschaft at Göttingen. Traugott Löber received ‘die Neue’ with open arms and an apologia: Die Verdienste des deutschen Adels um die Dichtkunst, in schuldigster Antwort an das hochwohlgebohrene Fräulein, Fräulein Charlotte Wilhelmine Amalia von Donop etc. im Namen der Königlichen deutschen Gesellschaft zu Göttingen, von Traugott Christiane Dorothee Löberinn, Kaiserl. gekrönte Poetin und der Gesellschaft Mitglied, (Göttingen: Hager, 1749). In 1752 Donop also became a member of the Deutsche Gesellschaft at Jena (along with Anna Christina Ehrenfried von Balthasar (1701–1786), the first German woman to become a Bachelor of Arts and Philosophy. This was reported in the Gelehrte Nachrichten auf das Jahr 1752 (Rostock and Wismar), p. 255: ‘Die Jenaische deutsche Geselschaft hat den Hrn. Graf Zaluski, Groß-Cron-Refendair von Polen, die Fräuleins von Balthasar zu Greifswald, und von Donop, am 20. Mertz den Hrn. Prof. Formey zu Berlin, und Hr. Prof. Dähnert zu Greifswald als Mitglieder aufgenommen.’ Donop’s abilities as a poet were praised in the Hamburgische Berichte von gelehrten Sachen (1750, no. 98, pp. 739–40) in glowing terms: Göttingen. Eine geneigte Hand übersendet uns von daher Folgendes: Die Schönheiten Pyrmonts, besungen von Charlotten Wilhelminen Amalien von Donop.

virgilianische Beschreibungen, kluge Gedan-ken, sinreiche Erfindungen, zierliche poetische Ausdrücke und Vorstellungen, und mit einem Wort eine so mänl. Poesie, daß die Verfasserin unter den besten Poeten Teutschlandes eine Stelle verdienet. Die erste Auflage ist daher in so kurzer Zeit vergriffen worden, daß der Hr.

She was laureated by Dr Jacob Wilhelm Feuerlein at Göttingen on 10 November 1750; copies of her diploma survive in Göttingen NSUB (2 HLP VIII, 362/10:2, 18 RARA) and Wolfenbüttel HAB (see JACOB WILHELM FEUERLEIN, Die edle Dichtkunst ..., Göttingen 1750). The Hamburgische Berichte von gelehrten Sachen (1751, no. 23, p. 183) carried only a brief report of her laureation: Lemgo. Alhier ist mit meierlichen Schriften gedruckt: Schreiben an se. Hochwürden, Herrn Doktor und Professor Feuerlein, der Georg Aug. zeitigen Prorektor; worin für den Lorbeerkranz der verbindlichste Dank abgestattet wird, von Charlotten Wilhelminen Amalien von Donop. Wir glauben mit dieser Aufschrift schon alles gesagt zu haben, was zum wohlverdienten Ruhme der vortreflichen Dichterin gesagt werden kan.

According to Wilhelm Gottlieb Leven von Donop, after some of her poems had been unfavourably received she published nothing after 1754, though she did continue to write verse mostly for her own delectation: ‘… allein da vielleicht eines ihrer Gedichte nicht ganz günstig beurtheilt worden war, so ließ sie seit dem Jahre 1754 nichts wieder drucken, ohngeachtet sie ihre dichterischen Arbeiten, von denen aber selten jemand etwas zu sehen bekam, immer fortsetzte.’ Portrait WALTER GÖDDEN and IRIS NÖLLE-HORNKAMP, eds, Westfälisches Autoren-Lexikon, Bd. 1: 1750–1800, Paderborn, 1993, pp. 91–92.

1575 he was teaching at the Gymnasium in Frankfurt am Main, in 1580 at Oppenheim, in 1586 at Hain-Gründau near Büdingen, and from 1589 to 1602 he was pastor at Laudenbach near Karlstadt am Main. In 1603 he was found as a refugee at Wertheim, and then at Wiebelskirchen. Clearly, further investigation is required.

JOHANN CHRIST. EHRHARD ERHARD 16**– d. before 1706? The identity of this poet is uncertain. Leipzig BST 1971: 102 and 165 lists him as Erhard, yet the contemporary evidence for his name has the spelling Ehrhard. Whether his middle name was Christian or Christoph is unclear. The copy of his Miscellanea Poetica in Leipzig UB (B.S.T. 8º 341/2) has the words ‘M. Jo. Christ. Ehrhard, + als Studente in Vitemb.’ written in ink on the title page. The formulation of the title (see below) perhaps suggests that he had died by 1706 and that his works were edited by ‘der Einfältige’, who has not been identified. Implausibly, GVK identifies him as Johann Christoph Erhard (1724–1784), who was a Stuttgart bookseller (see CERL thesaurus cnp01221449); this identification cannot be sustained seeing that the Miscellanea Poetica were published already in 1706. CERL thesaurus (cnp01221448) records a Johann Christoph Ehrhart, printer at Stolberg, active during the years 1726–1762, but he also lived too late to be considered here. If the poet’s full name was Johann Christian E(h)rhard, he is not to be confused with the Joh. Christianus Ehrhardus (‘Joh. Christianus Erhardus Siles[ius]’) who was respondent to Abraham Kaestner [praes.], Dissertatio Juridica De Aequitate et usupractico legis ult. C. de fideicommissis. junct. & ult. Inst.

Aisch) and studied at Altdorf (STEINMEYER, Matrikel Altdorf, no. 12631) where he became acquainted with Magnus Daniel Omeis who admitted him to the PBO and crowned him a poet in 1691. In the PBO his emblem was the ‘Nacht-Viole’ and his motto ‘Glanz und Geruch im Dunkeln’. In 1692 he succeeded his father as pastor at Lenkersheim. In 1694 he married Susanna Sophia Meyer, a daughter of the Altdorf printer Heinrich Meyer (1642–1707; on him see RESKE 2015: 9). At the synod at Neustadt in 1704 he gave an address entitled ‘De culto Dei fanatico’, which has not been preserved. In 1716 he was appointed pastor at Ipsheim, but the following year he died in an accident on the way to the synod at Windsheim.

F [F–1a] GEORG BENEDICT FABER MONTANO (PBO) c. 1655–1692 Date of laureation: 1688? Place of laureation: Altdorf? Performed by/on behalf of: Magnus Daniel Omeis? Georg Benedict Faber was a son of Johann Ludwig Faber (1635–1678) (on him see Handbook, F–3 (II, 507)) and younger brother of Samuel Faber (1657–1716) (see Handbook, F–4 (II, 509)). In 1688 when he joined the PBO he was pastor at Vohenstrauß, near Weiden in the Upper Palatinate. Presumably he was laureated by Omeis at around the same time. Shortly before his early death he was appointed pastor at Happurg, near Hersbruck. He devoted himself to oriental languages and translated De arte semper gaudente by the Spanish philosopher Jacinto Sarasa Ximenez for Christian Albrecht von Pfalz-Sulzbach (1632–1708), which he left unfinished. There is an entry by him, dated 18 August 1684, in the Stammbuch of Johann Christoph Lindstatt (Weimar HAAB) (on him see Handbook, L–54). Among his surviving poems are occasional verses addressed to the theology students Wolfgang Jacob Will and Andreas Will (1680) and Christian Eschenbach (1684), a poem celebrating the marriage of Johann Wülfer (1683), and others marking the deaths of the Nuremberg patrician Christian Andreas I. Imhoff (1683) and the young law student Johann Matthaeus Hopfner (1687). There is also a poem in praise of Emperor Leopold I (1692). Several religious poems are included in Heinrich Müller, Poetischer Andacht-Klang, Nuremberg 1691, pp. 102–109, 156–161 and 196– 203. As a young man he became a member of the Dichtkunstliebende Gesellschaft an der Schwarzach under the name ‘Der Beständige’. For details of all these see JÜRGENSEN 2006: 581–2.

Date of laureation: 23 October 1756

Bio-bibliographies

Place of laureation: Kiel Performed by/on behalf of: Karl Friedrich Winkler Maria Juliana Franke was born at Kiel in 1728; she married a man called Scheel and was still alive in 1796. She came from a distinguished family of academics in Kiel; among her relations were Christoph Franke (1642– 1704, Professor of Theology from 1674 and member of the PBO in 1658), his son Bernhard Matthias Franke (Professor of Medicine, 1674– 1701), and Georg Franke, the latter’s nephew who was also Professor of Medicine in the 1730s. Maria Juliana Franke was a daughter of Christoph Franke (b. 1698), legal advisor (Syndikus) to the university in Kiel. She was laureated on 23 October 1756 by Karl Friedrich Winkler (1722–1784), Prorektor and Professor of Law at Kiel and, by virtue of this office, ‘aus kaiserlichen allerhöchsten Gnaden Palatii caesarei Comes’. It is interesting to note that Winkler’s mother Johanna Maria Winkler, née Dornfeld (1680–1754), the daughter of a Leipzig pastor, married the lawyer Heinrich Ayrer (1702–1774) following the death of her first husband. In 1737 Karl Friedrich Winkler studied law where his step-father was employed, at the University of Göttingen and took a doctorate in canon and civil law in 1745. It is unlikely that he and his step-father were unaware of the laureation of six women at the university, not least because Ayrer was an honorary member of the Göttingen Deutsche Gesellschaft. Karl Friedrich Winkler praised Franke for having composed a poem ‘in welchem der würdigste Gegenstand so feurig als reitzend durch sie besungen worden [ist]’. This refers to her poem (reprinted by VOLBEHR 1876: 216–17), of six stanzas, entitled Frohe Gedanken eines damals von Kiel abweseden Frauenzimmers, als se. Excellenz, der hoch- und wohlgeborne Herr, Ernst Joachim von Westphalen, des russisch-kaiserlichen Alexander- und des schleswigholsteinischen Annenordens Ritter, von seiner kaiserlichen Hoheit, dem durchlauchtigsten Groß-fürsten aller Reussen und regierenden Herzog zu Schleswig-Holstein u. s. f. als allerhöchst Dero erster geheimer Rath und Curator Dero schleswigholsteinischen Universität zu Kiel wieder ernant worden, und derselbe darauf den 27. Julii dieses 1756. Jahrs unter vielen öffent-lichen Freudenbezeugungen und grossem Zulauf des Volks, seinen Vorsitz im hohen geheimen Regierungsconseil wieder einnahm, auf Verlan-gen eines Freundes zu Papier gebracht. The ‘friend’, who encouraged this, was (according to VOLBEHR) the Grand Ducal Chamberlain and Major von Puttkammer, though precisely which member of this widely scattered family this was has not been ascertained. The political background to the poem is as follows: Duke Karl Peter Ulrich of Holstein-Gottorp (1728–1762), son of Duke Karl Friedrich and Grand Princess Anna of Russia and afterwards the short-lived Czar Peter III, as heir to the Russian throne was brought up in St Petersburg. During his

Franke, Maria Juliana

141

absence from Holstein, government business in Kiel lay in the hands of the Privy Council which was riven by divisions and intrigues. Ernst Joachim von Westphalen (1700–1759), author of Monumenta inedita rerum Germanicarum praecipue Cimbricarum et Megapolensium (Leipzig 1739–45) and a member of the Privy Council, was arrested and imprisoned in 1750 at the instigation of his enemies. In 1754, when Duke Karl Peter Ulrich at last found out what had been going on behind his back, he ordered Westphalen’s release and reinstatement into all his previous offices, much to the jubilation of the people of Kiel and especially of the University whose Kurator he was. The poem was so much admired by the contemporaries that an anonymous writer published an (untraced) Ode über das Gedicht eines unbekannten Frauenzimmers auf die Wiedererhebung des Geheimraths von Westphalen. No further poems by Maria Juliana Franke seem to have survived. Although the political occasion and the poem have long since fallen into oblivion, this – apparently unique – laureation in Kiel is noteworthy not least for Karl Friedrich Winkler’s words published in an open letter issued at the time of Franke’s laureation: Die rühmlichen und edlen Bemühungen so vieler über den gemeinen Haufen erhabenen und verehrungswürdigen Frauenzimmer in den Werken des Witzes und des gereinigten Geschmacks sind billig als ein besonderer Vorzug unserer Zeiten anzusehen. Selbst die schönen Wissenschaften, die auch noch in unsern Tagen nicht wenig gemishandelt werden, erhalten dadurch einen neuen Wehrt, wan Personen, deren Erkentnis zu erlangen und erweitern suchen, welche sich sonst gemeiniglich durch Erziehung, Vorurtheile, häusliche Sorgen, und andere eusserliche Umstände abhalten lassen, an der Verbesserung des Verstandes und des Willens eifrig zu arbeiten. Der lautere Witz nebst der glüklichen Bemühung der hochedlen Jungfer Maria Juliana Franken hat durch verschiedene schöne Proben einer natürlichen und durch Fleis geübten Fähigkeit in der deutschen Dichtkunst den Beifal aller Kenner nach sich gezogen.

SALOMON FRENZEL VON FRIEDENTHAL September 1561/4–18 June 1605 For further details see Handbook, F–53 (II, 599–602). Frenzel’s birth year is variously given as 1561 and as 1564. He was laureated in March 1584, which may indicate that he was born earlier than 1564 since twenty-one was the usual minimum age for laureation. He is described as ‘Poëta Caesarius’ in HPGEBA 17: 0215 (Lodenitz, 1592).

DOROTHEA FURCKEN FUHRKEN 1722–20 February 1775 Date of laureation: 28 December 1750 Place of laureation: Göttingen Performed by/on behalf of: Jacob Wilhelm Feuerlein For further details see Handbook, F–67 (II, 621). Dorothea Furcken, née Ha(a)ren, was born in 1722 (several years later than stated in the Handbook) at Neustadtgödens near Wilhelmshaven in East Frisia where her father, Wiembcke Haren, was a herbalist and sailor. Her mother was Eberhardine Sophie (b. 1686), daughter of pastor Nicolaus Gotlef Cadovius (1659–1699). Dorothea attended the joint school of the Mennonites and the Reformed congregation and seems to have been permitted access to the Tieffenbruch library, a collection of

mostly theological, religious and philosophical books, which gave her a solid basic education (HEGENSCHEID/LEHMANN 1992: 24–9)) She married Jakob Furcken (Fuhrken), an Oldenburg merchant on 1 December 1740, but later obtained a divorce. On 16 December 1754 she married Anton Toepken, an administrator in the service of Count Bentinck and advocate at the higher court. In 1767 or 1768 they moved to Neuenburg where she died at Neuenburg on 20 February 1775. She was interred at Varel. She was laureated at Göttingen on 28 December 1750 by Jacob Wilhelm Feuerlein, Prorektor of the university, at the instigation of the Deutsche Gesellschaft there – she was their seventh female honorary member. (Feuerlein had also laureated Zäunemann and Donop; Fuhrken was after Anna Margareta Pfeffer the second woman from Lower Saxony to be laureated. The year 1750 saw the end of laureations at Göttingen.) The laurel itself was presented by the dowager Countess of Aldenburg, ‘in Gegenwart einiger Gräflichen und Adelichen Personen’ in the audience chamber of the castle at Varel. According to HEGENSCHEID/LEHMANN 1992: 152, all of Fuhrken’s poems currently known were composed during the time of her first marriage. The Göttingische Zeitungen von gelehrten Sachen carried the following notice of her laureation in its issue for 11 January 1751 (Stück 3, p. 18): Den 28. Decemb. ward die Frau Dorothee Furcken geb. Haaren, eine vortrefliche Ostfriesische Dichterin zu Neustadt-Gödens, von dem zeitigen Prorector Hrn. Jacob Wilhelm Feuerlein zur Kaiserl. gekrönten Poetin auf Ansuchen der hiesigen Königl. Deutschen Gesellschaft, welche dieselbe unter die Zahl ihrer Mitglieder aufgenommen, öffentlich erkläret. Die Durchl. verwittibte Gräfin von Altenburg gebohrne Landgräfin von Hessen-Homburg haben die Gnade gehabt, dieser geschikten Dichterin den Lorbeerkranz und die Diploms im Nahmen gedachter Deutschen Gesellschaft gnädigst zu überreichen."

On 19 April 1751 (Stück 3, p. 322) a further report appeared – apparently because of the novelty of an aristocratic lady conferring the laurel on another woman. Countess Wilhelmine Marie zu Aldenburg (1678–1770), was the mother of Charlotte Sophie von Bentinck, née Reichsgräfin zu Aldenburg (1715–1800), remembered for her links with Voltaire, Frederick the Great and the Gottscheds (see CATHERINE GOODMAN, Adieu Divine Comtesse. Luise Gottsched, Charlotte Sophie Gräfin Bentinck und Johann Christoph Gottsched in ihren Briefen, Würzburg 2009). This report reads: Am 28sten Jan. hat die hiesige Universität eine ausnehmende Ehre genossen, da ihre Hochfürstl. Durchl. die Frau Gräfin Wilhelmine Marie Gräfin von Altenburg [Aldenburg] gebohrne Landgräfin von Hessen-Homburg, den Dichter-Crantz,

welchen der Hr. D. Feuerlein als Prorector der Friesischen Dichterin, Frau Furckin, ertheilet hatte, höchst eigenhändig dieser Dichterin aufzusetzen gnädigst geruhet haben. Jhre Durchlauchten liessen die Frau Furckin zu diesem Endzweck mit Dero Gespann und Kutsche von Neustadt-Gödens nach Varel abholen, und verrichteten die feierliche Handlung in Gegenwart einiger Gräflichen und Adelichen Personen: darauf sie die Frau F. zur Tafel zu ziehen, und neben sich zu setzen die Gnade hatten, und ihr die Gesundheit der hiesigen Königl. Deutschen Gesellschaft zuzubringen geruheten, als welche ihr den ertheilten Dichter-Crantz ausgewircket und übersandt hat.

Feuerlein’s draft of the diploma, preserved in Göttingen NSUB: 4° Cod. Ms. hist. lit. 18i, reads as follows: Gute Dichter müssen zur Dichtkunst gebohren seyn. Zwey Theile lebhafter Einbildung und ein Theil scharfer Beurtheilungskraft machen den Wiz aus, den ein Dichter mit sich auf die Welt bringen muß. Werden diese Gaben der Natur durch gründliche Einsicht in die Sitten- und Naturlehre, und in die Geschichte, durch aufmerksame Betrachtung verschiedener Meisterstücke der Dichtkunst, durch einige wenige, aber vernünftige Regeln derselben, und durch fleißige Uebung, bereichert, aufgewecket, geleitet, und in die Wirkung gebracht; so werden sich bald reife Früchte einer edlen Dichtkunst zeigen: Da hergegen alle Kunst, Fleiß und Wissenschaften ohne die Lebhaftigkeit der Einbildung nichts als trockene Reime, und ohne Beurtheilungskraft nichts als lächerliche, lasterhafte und strafbare Einfälle hervorzubringen pflegen. Was aber angebohrne Geschiklichkeit und Neigung zu Gedichten vermögen, kan unter andern das Exempel einer vortreflichen Ostfriesischen Dichterin unserer Zeiten der Hochedlen Frauen Dorotheen Furcken gebohrnen Haaren belehren als welche, ohne mündlichen Unterricht, ohnerachtet der stärksten Abhaltungen, Jhrem natürlichen Triebe zu Folge, durch fleißiges Lesen guter Bücher und Gedichte, Jhre angebohrne Geschiklichkeit zum Dichten in kurzer Zeit zu solcher Vollkommenheit erhoben, daß ihre Gedichte von Kennern für Meisterstücke gehalten werden, und eine Sammlung derselben in öffentlichem Drucke ehestens erscheinen wird. Diese vortrefliche Dichterin auch meines Orts zu ehren, ernenne und erkläre hiermit, ich Jacob Wilhelm Feuerlein [...] Dorothee Furcken [...] in Ansehung Jhrer vortreflichen Gedichte, Gottesfurcht, Bescheidenheit und anderen Tugenden zu einer gekrönten Kaiserlichen Poetin [...].6

Sabine Koloch notes that this text reflects the thinking of Gottsched in his Versuch einer Critischen Dichtkunst (1730) where, under the heading ‘Von dem Caractere eines Poeten’ he outlines his ideal of a true poet: Denn das muß man nothwendig wissen, daß es mit Einbildungskraft, Scharfsinnigkeit und Witz bey einem Poeten noch nicht ausgerichtet ist. Dieß ist zwar der

Grund von seiner Geschicklichkeit, den die Natur legt: aber es gehört zu dem Naturelle auch die Kunst und Gelehrsamkeit. [...] So nothwendig nun einem Poeten die Philosophie ist: so stark muß auch seine Beurtheilungskraft seyn. Es würde nichts helfen, witzig und scharfsinnig zu seyn, wenn der Witz übel angebracht würde, oder gar nicht rechter Art wäre. Eine gar zu hitzige Einbildungskraft macht unsinnige Dichter: dafern das Feuer das Phantasie nicht durch eine gesunde Vernunft gemäßiget wird. (Versuch einer Critischen Dichtkunst durchgehends mit den Exempeln unserer besten Dichter erläutert, 4th enlarged edn, Leipzig: Breitkopf 1751, pp. 105, 108.)

Indeed, it is possible that both of these men, despite their disparate designations – one as a notary, the other as a theologian – were one and the same; but it is also possible that Johannes Gebauer de Vogelsang was yet a different person entirely. Further investigation is required. The formulation ‘Poëta Chimarrh. & Godelman. Rudolph.

H [H–1a] LOUISE CHARLOTTE HAAS FREDERIKE LOUISA HAAS, née FEUERBACH 10 January 1738–3 November 1811 Date of laureation: 1771 Place of laureation: Tübingen Performed by/on behalf of: Balthasar Haug Louise Charlotte Haas, née Feuerbach, (whose name is given thus in JOHANN JAKOB GRADMANN’s Das gelehrte Schwaben, Ravensburg 1802, repr. Hildesheim 1983, p. 204, but who also appears as Frederike Louisa Haas) was born at Ludwigsburg on 10 January 1738 as the daughter of Ludwig Wilhelm Feuerbach (1691–1761), a cavalry officer, and his wife Maria Katharina Engelhart (b. 1704) from Urach; they had married in 1723. Around 1726 Feuerbach had become adjutant in the Württemberg Carabinier-Garde and was later appointed counsellor to the duke of Württemberg. He died as financial counsellor at Göppingen. On 14 April 1763 his daughter married Matthäus David Haas (1738– 1815) – he had been appointed pastor at Salach in 1759, then at Grötzingen near Nürtingen in 1763, and finally 1777 he became pastor at in Schlierbach near Göppingen. They had five children. She was laureated by Count Palatine Professor Balthasar Haug (1731– 1792) at Tübingen in 1771 for her poem on the death of Christian Fürchtegott Gellert (1715–1769; see Schwäbisches Magazin 1779, p. 548), ‘Gedanken einer Dichterin auf Gellerts Tod’: Du Verewigter, der deutschen Dichter Ehre, Gellert! den mit Recht dein Volk beweint, Deinen Ruhm entehrt doch keine stille Zähre, Die auch mein Geschlecht dir heute weint. Du, du sangst nicht nur um Beyfall groser Kenner; Nein, dein Lied, dein lehrevoller Scherz Besserte Geschmack und Denkungsart der Männer, Aber auch des Mädgens offnes Herz. Den versäumten Theil, die Schönen unsers Landes, Hast du auf den edlen Stolz gebracht, Unser Geist sey nicht zur Schätzung eines Bandes, Und sey nicht zum Kopfputz nur gemacht. Daß die Schwäbin (lobenswürdige Bemühung) Ihre Seelenkraft versucht, und denkt;

Sich, trotz Vorurtheil und sclavischer Erziehung Ueber Kunkel und Tarokspiel schwingt; Daß sie Klopstok [!] lißt, kein Robinson mehr reitzet, Ohne Neid der Freundin Vorzug ehrt; Mehr um Seelen-Schönheit, als um Schminke geitzet, Hast du, groser Gellert, uns gelehrt. Unpedantisch stößest du den Herzen Edlere Empfindungen der Freundschaft ein, Wahre Menschenliebe konnte auch durch Scherzen Ruf und Zug zur höhern Tugend seyn. Dichter, lernts, was mehr, als alles andre Schöne Ihm das Recht zur Ewigkeit gebracht: Gellert war ein Christ! o ahmt ihm nach, die Töne, Lernt, was eure Dichtkunst göttlich macht. Singt ihr englisch, aber nicht des Höchsten Ehre, Undankbar, zur Schmach des Christenthums; Steigt der Dichter auch zum Glanz der höchsten Sphäre; O so schämt euch dennoch eures Ruhms. Nur was euren bessern Theil, die Seele, adelt, Folgt euch jenseits eurer Gräber nach. Wenn des Weisen Eckel eure Lieder tadelt; Wird des Wizlings Beyfall Euch zur Schmach. Gellert sey mein Muster! Segnet mein Bemühen, Nur der kluge, der mir Beyfall schenkt; Biß ich lerne, wie Er Engels Symphonien Jezt in seine goldne Harfe singt. H...in.

For her laureation see Schwäbisches Magazin von gelehrten Sachen, Jahrgang 1777, following the account of the laureation of Magdalena Sibylla Rieger (q.v.), under the heading ‘Nachtrag zu den alten Würtembergischen Dichtern’ (St. 2, pp. 98–111, here pp. 108–109). Haug writes: Noch eine gekrönte Poetin haben wir im Lande an der sinnreichen Frau Pfarrer Hasin in Grözingen. Sie hat verschiedene Gedichte auf Seine Durchlaucht, den regierenden Herrn Herzog in Wirtemberg, so zum Theil in diesem Magazin stehen, auch andere, darunter mir das auf den Tod ihrer seligen Frau Mutter am besten gefallen, verfertiget. Ihre häußliche Sorgen ersticken das dichterische Feuer, und lassen sie wohl schwerlich an eine Sammlung ihrer Arbeiten gedenken. Sie ist gekrönt von unserm Hn. Prof. und Mittwochsprediger M. Haug, der ihr als Comes Palat. den Lorbeer zugetheilt, und ihn selber auch schon frühzeitig durch ein Gedicht auf [Kaiserin] Theresia erhalten hatte. Dieser Mann ist durch seine Schriften und Gedichte allzugut bekandt, als daß es nöthig wäre, sie im Vorbeigehen gleichsam nur anzuführen; und sein Lob hier zu berühren, würde noch weniger schiklich sein, da sein Leben und seine Schriften im vorigen Jargang umständlich vorkommen.

Bio-bibliographies

Various other poems by her were published in monthly periodicals, including one on the grand princess of Russia (1776), ‘Fromme Entschließungen’ (in the Schwäbisches Magazin von gelehrten Sachen 1779, p. 248). Haug’s poem celebrating her laureation, ‘Auf den Lorbeer einer Wirtembergischen Dichterin, Fr. H.’, appeared in the Schwäbisches Magazin von gelehrten Sachen, 1779, St. 8, p. 548, which he edited. The third strophe – Du predigst Geschmack für Dein Geschlechte: Der Lorbeer sey das Pfand für Deine Rechte! Sing aber fort; so zierst Du ihn. Wenn G[ellert] stimmt; thut Deine Harfe Wunder, Wie Karschin stark, wie Unzers Gattin, munter, Und fromm, wie Riegerin.

– alludes to the laureations of three women poets: Anna Louisa Karsch (1722–1791), Johanne Charlotte Unzer (1725–1782) and Magdalena Sibylla Rieger (1707–1786), which had taken place respectively in 1762, 1753 and 1743 (for details see Handbook K–4, U–9 and R–50). . Works

HEINRICH KRENTZHEIM HENRICUS KRENTZHEIM AB IPHOFEN fl. 1588–1607 Date of laureation: not after 1601 Heinrich Krentzheim was a descendant of a noble family at Iphofen in Franconia. How precisely he was related to the physician Leonhard Krentzheim (1564–1619; on him see JÖCHER, II, 2166; JÖCHER/ ADELUNG, III, 859; DBI–DBA, I, 707: 365) of Liegnitz is not clear: he was presumably either a brother or a son. This Leonhard was a son of Leonhard Krentzheim (1532–1598), a theologian from Iphofen (on whom see JÖCHER, II, 2166; JÖCHER/ADELUNG, III, 858). Krentzheim was laureated by 1601 since the booklet of that year in honour of Elector Christian II of Saxony is signed ‘Henricus Krentzheim ab Iphofen, M. & Poët: Cæs:’ He was a physician, too, practising at Leitmeritz in 1607, for he signs as ‘Henricus Krentzheim ab Iphofen, Med. Doctor & Poeta Laur. Caesareus, Medicus Leutmericensis’ when he contributed to a booklet congratulating Johannes-Ernestus Schösserus on receiving his doctorate, presumably at Prague, on 7 February 1607 (HPGEBA 20: 0757; Prague 1607).

[L–45] REGINA MAGDALENA LIMBURGER(IN) née FIN(C)K; MAGDALIS (PBO) 1 December 1638–22 August 1691 Date of laureation: Between22 July and 27 August 1668 Place of laureation: Nuremberg Performed by/on behalf of: Sigmund von Birken For further details see Handbook, L–45 (III, 1138–1139). Regina Magdalena Finck, born at Förrenbach near Hersbruck, was the daughter of Petrus Finck (1608–1663), pastor at Happurg near Nuremberg, and his wife Magdalena Zimmerer, daughter of a Nuremberg schoolmaster, On 15 June 1659 she married Martin Limburger, pastor at Kraftshof near Nuremberg, who had been a laureated poet himself since 1662 (see Handbook, L–44). Until her marriage, Regina Magdalena had not shown any particular interest in poetry, but then, like a pupil, she got involved in her husband’s literary interests. In 1676 he had established the Irrhain (labyrinth) as a meeting-place for members of the PBO at Kraftshof, and later he became their president. According to POPPE, 1987, p. 85, they had ten children. Sigmund von Birken’s note in his diary for 22 July 1668, ‘Magdalidi den Schäferband, samt dem Lorbeerkränzlein und Sonnet’, refers to the following sonnet (BIRKEN, Werke und Korrespondenz, 2009, 2, pp. 372, 747): An Magdalis, bey gleichmäßiger Ubersendung. Sonnet. Die da ein Gekrönter Schäfer liebet, die auch liebet seinen Stab und Kron, deren stäts beliebt der Hirten-Thon: billig ihr man Laub und Blume gibet. Die ihr seither selbst mit sangt und schriebet: sehet, nehmt! hier ist Parnassus Lohn! mit dem Liebsten geht Gekrönt davon. auf dem Siebenrohr [= Pan pipes] mit ihm euch übet! Euer Laub und Lob gezweyfacht sey. Korn- und Jovis-Blume ziert die Heyde. Aber Band und Blume sagt von Drey, wehrte Magdalis, Myrtillens Freude! Eure Lieb dreyfaltig sey forthin: Liebt zugleich den Kranz, das Band und ihn.

Limburger(in), Regina Magdalena

247

Further entries in Birken’s diaries record his meeting Regina Magda-lena Limburger on 13 and 27 August in Nuremberg. From this the editors of Floridans Amaranten-Garte conclude: ‘Wenn das Sonett mit Poeten- und Ordensinsignien nicht bei einer dieser Begegnungen ausgehändigt worden ist, muß die Übersendung ohne Begleitbrief erfolgt sein. Das Gedicht wird kurz vor dem in der Tagebuchnotiz genannten Termin entstanden sein’ (p. 747). Regina Limburgerin was buried in Nuremberg on 26 August 1691, a funeral sermon being delivered by a fellow laureate, Johann Geuder (LP Braunschweig, II, 834, Nr. 1384). OMEIS/HAENDEL, 1688, p. 14, record, ‘Limburgeria (Regina Magdalena), Adm. Rev. Dn. M. Martini Limburgeri, Pastoris in Villa Cratonis [Kraftshof], prope Norimbergam, Vigilantissimi, & Sodalitatis ibidem Florigeræ Antistitis Meritissimi, Vxor dilectissima: in eaden Societate Magdalis nominata, Poëtria Coronata, & ex carminibus Teutonicis, quæ jam multis ab annis scripsit, hodienum celebrata.’ A fine, contemporary piece of evidence for her laureation is Johann Christoph Sartorius’s copper engraving of 1692. The ribbon around the oval frame of the portrait reads: "Fr[au] Regina Magdalena Limburgerin, Kays[erlich] gek[rönte] Dichterin und deß Hochlöblichen Blumenordens an der Pegnitz gewesene Gesellschafterin AEtat, 52 Jahr und 8.

Some poems, including ones to Gertraud Moller und Maria Katharina Stockfleth, are mentioned by WOODS/FÜRSTENWALD, 1984: 63. SCHUSTER, 2009: 55, considers it possible that some of the poems attributed to Regina Magdalena may have been written, or partly written, by her husband.

KÖHLER 1741: 16, reported that Traugott Löber was born on 31 March 1724 (some handbooks give the year of her birth as 1725) in Ronneburg, near Gera, the daughter of the Altenburg Superintendent Christian Löber (1683–1747) and his wife Dorothea Sophie Boerner (1697–1771). Amazingly, no fewer than four members of the family were laureated poets: her father Christian, his sons Gotthilf Friedemann (1722–1799, laureated on 29 October 1739 by Christoph August Heumann) and Christian Joseph (1743–1794, a physician and Freemason) and Traugott Christiana Dorothea (see Handbook L–60, L–62, L–61 and L–63, respectively). She was the elder of two daughters and lived c. 1740 in Altenburg, where in 1741/42 she published her first books of poems with Gottlob Emanuel Richter – several Löbers, including her father, published with Richter. She married and had three children with the Erfurt lawyer Ludolph Wilhelm Lilien (according to HAYMANN 1809 he was a physician) on 8 August 1754. While there she doubtless had an opportunity to familiarise herself with the life and publications of Sidonia Hedwig Zäunemann, who had recently died. After the death of her husband, she went to live with her brother Gotthold Ernst Löber (1725– 1784), court counsellor and physician, at Dresden. During this period she ______________ 9

helped edit the monthly periodical Papiere einiger Freunde (Dresden: Heinrich Wilhelm Harpeter 1780–83). She died at Dresden in 1788. The laureation of ‘die in den gelehrten und galanten Wissenschaften wolerzogene Tichterin’ (Hamburgische Berichte von gelehrten Sachen 1740, no. 44, p. 377), at the remarkably young age of seventeen, was announced by Johann David Köhler (1684–1755), Pro-rector of the University of Göttingen, on 25 December 1741. In her honour Köhler wrote an essay on the laureation diploma of Enea Silvio Piccolomini: Johannes David Koelerus [...] prorector Academiae Georgiae Augustae virgini nobilissimae ornatissimaeque Traugott Christianae Dorotheae Loeberiae [...] lauream poeticam largitur praemisso commentariolo in diploma imp. Friderici III. quo Aeneas Sylvius Piccolomineus a. MCCCCXLII creatus fuit poeta laureatus (Göttingen: Hager [1741]); copies in Edinburgh UL; Göttingen NSUB; Halle ULB; Jena LB; Leipzig UB: Kirchg.570-c; München BSB: 4 Diss. 583; Oxford Bodl. Diss. K.184 (2); Wolfenbüttel HAB: Pd 116; Weimar HAAB). At the end of this Köhler appended the text of Löber’s diploma. This was a double compliment to her inasmuch as it implied that she was sufficiently learned to understand the Latin and also because it underlined what an august company Löber was joining. On 19 January 1742 the Hamburgische Berichte von gelehrten Sachen (no. 6, pp. 45-46) carried an extensive report on Köhler’s essay: Göttingen. Von dar überschicket uns eine geneigte Hand eine gelehrte Schrift des dasigen grundgelehrten Hrn. Joh. David Koehlers, öffentlichen Lehrers der Geschichte, u. s. f. worin er ein rares Diploma Kaisers Friderichs des dritten, welches wir der Bemühung des Herrn von Gudenus in seiner Sylloge variar. Diplomatar. zu danken haben, und wodurch der bekante Eneas Sylvius von Piccolomini, nachmaliger Pabst Pius der andere, zum gekrönten Poeten gemacht worden, mit einigen belesenen Anmerkungen erleutert. Eine aufs neue daselbst und zwar dieses mal von ihm selbst gekrönte Poetin, hat ihm Gelegenheit gegeben, diese Schrift mit Vergnügen zu entwerfen. Denn nachdem die durch verschiedene wolgerathene und sinreiche teutsche Gedichte bekant und zugleich berühmt gewordene Jungfer Traugot Christina Dorothea Loeberin, eine Tochter, ihrer Hochwürden des hochverdienten Herrn Kirchenraths und Generalsuperintendenten zu Altenburg, Herrn Doct. Christian Loebers, dieser ausnehmenden Ehrenbezeigung insonderheit wür-dig erkant worden, hat man keinen Umgang nehmen können, ihr nicht weniger, wie der seligen Jungfer Zäunemannin den poetischen Lorberkranz am verwichenen 25. December mit gewöhnlichem Geprägen aufzusetzen. In obberegtem Diplomate kommen verschiedene Dinge vor, welche die Geschichte und Umstände vom Ursprung, Ehransehen, und den Freiheiten der gekrönten Dichter, aus einigen Dunkelheiten herauszusetzen vermögend sind, sonderlich durch Hülfe einer so geübten und belesenen Feder, wie des Herrn Koelers seine. Eine der grösten Ungewisheiten hiebey war diese, woher der Krönungs-gebrauch entstanden? Das kaiserliche Diploma führet ihn von den auf Anordnung des Kaisers

Domitiani von den Poeten auf dem Kapitolio zu Rom angestellten Kampfspielen oder Wetstreiten her. Der Herr Verfasser merket dabey aus des Turnebi Adversar. an, daß die ehemahligen Poeten, wan sie ein gutes Gedicht verfertiget, und sich des Beystands der Götter versichern wollen, das Haupt mit einer Krone umgeben haben. Dieser besondere Gebrauch, wäre endlich in einen öffentlichen verändert, und dieser Kronenschmuck von Königen und Fürsten als eine poetische Ehrenbelohnung ausgetheilet worden. Unter andern komt pag. 7. die Frage vor, ob die ehemaligen Dichter, um deswegen, daß sie sich der Gabe rühmeten, die Helden und deren preiswürdige Thaten zu verewigen, auch wohl eine güldene Krone davon getragen haben? Der Herr Verfasser widerspricht hierin dem Ausspruch des Kaisers, und führet solche Stellen aus den vornehmsten lateinis. Poeten an, welche von keinen andern Kronen und Kränzen, als die von Epheu oder Lorber gewesen sind, reden. Man hält sonst den Franciscum Petrarcham für den ersten gekrönten Poeten nach Wiederherstellung der verfallenen Wissenschaften. Der Herr Verfasser aber beweiset aus bewehrten Urkunden und Nachrichten, daß der gelehrte Paduaner Albertinus Musatus, schon ums Jahr 1318. und lange vor ihm noch ein anderer Geistlicher an einem unbekanten Orte, welcher wie es in den Actis Sanctor. heist, secularium cantionum curiosus inventor suit, mit dem Lorberkranz beehret, und letzterer zwar mit den besonderen Ehren-namen eines Regis versuum, oder Verseköniges benennet worden. Endlich komt der Herr Verfasser auf die Krönung des Eneä Sylvii, der von Kaiser Friderich dem dritten diese Würde zuerst erhalten hat: dabey denn verschiedene Umstände davon aus den Briefen des Sylvii selbst beygebracht werden, und mit der Nachricht beschlossen wird, daß der vortrefliche Conradus Celtes, unter den Teutschen sich dieses Vorzuges zu allererst zu rühmen habe, als welcher ums Jahr 1491., zu Nürnberg in dem castro imperiali, und nicht burggraviali, wie ein gewisser Gelehrter glaubet, aufs prächtigste gekrönet worden.

Following the example of Sidonia Hedwig Zäunemann, who also came from Thuringia and who had died the previous year, Löber included the title ‘Kaiserlich gekrönte Poetin’ on the title pages of many of her publications from 1749 onwards. Among those to congratulate her on her preferment was her cousin Wilhelm Christian Löber (1722–1787), in: Als die gelehrte altenburgische Dichterin, die [...] Jungfer Traugott Christiana Dorothee Loeberin […] den poetischen Lorbeerkranz erhielte [...], Stettin 1742 (HPGEBA 28: 1536). Löber was the first woman to be admitted to honorary membership of three learned societies: the Deutsche Gesellschaft at Göttingen (1 June 1743, see SUCHIER 1916: 23), Helmstedt (after 1749, see KOLOCH, 2011: 106) and Jena (in or after 1753, see MARWINSKI 2010: 229). Gerhard Christian Otto Hornbostel, secretary of the Deutsche Gesellschaft at Göttingen and P.L.C. himself (see Handbook, H–101), in a clear sign of appreciation, addressed a letter of condolence to her on the death of her father: Schreiben an [...] Jungfer Traugott Christiane Dorothee Löbern, Kaiserliche gekrönte Poetin [...], wodurch Deroselben bei dem Grabe ihres [...]

In his [...] Bittschrift an Seine Königliche Majestät in Preussen, um Anlegung einer Universität für das schöne Schlecht (Göttingen, 1747) he wrote: Was kaum das graue Griechenland Jn seiner Wörterfügung selbst gekant: Die Sprache Canaans [Hebrew] [...] Eröffnet uns die schöne Löberin.[...]

JACOB LOCHER PHILOMUSUS July 1471–4 December 1528 For further details see Handbook, L–64 (III, 1169–1175). CERL thesaurus states that Locher was laureated by Maximilian I in 1497, as indeed does the Handbook entry (III, 1169), but he appears already in the matriculation records of the University of Ingolstadt as ‘Iacobus Locher ex Ehingen poeta laureatus’ on 15.6.1489 and as ‘Magister Jacobus Locher ex Ehingen Philomusus et orator laureatus lector in poesi’ on 28.1.1498 (GÖTZ FREIHERR VON PÖLNITZ, Die Matrikel der LudwigMaximilians-Universität Ingolstadt – Landshut – München, vol. I, Munich 1937, cols 192 and 264, respectively). Although it is not known why he was laureated, it may perhaps be assumed that since no other early work of his was concerned so closely with the Habsburgs and Maximilian it was probably his Nenia Sigismundi that commended him for this honour (Tyrolis Latina, I, 91).

Ludewig was born on 15 August (5 August, in the Julian calendar) at Honhardt near Schwäbisch Hall where his father, Peter Ludewig, was administrator; his mother, Elisabeth Rosina, née Engelhardt, came from an educated family of city councellors at Schwäbisch Hall. He attended the Gymnasium there for several years from 1679 (see Hallarum Nobilis ac Liberae S. R. I. Civitatis Encomium, 1688). After a brief stay at the University of Tübingen in 1686 he moved to Wittenberg in 1689, receiving his M.A. in 1690 and being laureated in early 1692 (in the Handbook Ludewig is stated to have been laureated ‘not after 1692’). On title pages of his dissertations in VD17 ‘Poet. Laur. Caes.’ first appears in Vita Aurelii Prudentii of 29 March 1692. In De Idylliis satyricis of 30 December 1691 and in earlier dissertations he appears only as Magister. He would thus seem to have received the title between January and March 1692. He was a pupil of Georg Caspar Kirchmaier, Professor of Eloquence, and the lawyer Samuel Stryk who in 1693 introduced him to the new University of Halle (Academia villa Platonis cum nova Hallensium collata, Halle 1693). Here, in 1695, be became Professor of Logic and Metaphysics, Licentiate in Laws in 1702, Professor of History in 1703, and counsellor to the King of Prussia, court historiographer and archivist to the duchy of Mageburg in 1704, Doctor of Laws in 1705, as well as Professor of Laws, pro-rector and assessor of the Collegium Iureconsultorum at Halle. In 1718 he was appointed privy counsellor by the King of Prussia and was ennobled by Emperor Charles VI in 1719. In 1722 he became chancellor of the university and in 1729 Professor primarius of law and president of the Collegium Iureconsultorum. In 1741 Friedrich II named him chancellor of the duchy of Magdeburg in recognition of his publications in ______________ 10 I am indebted to Prof. Dr. Walther Ludwig, Hamburg, for additional information (published in KILLY, Lit.-Lex 2009) regarding his ancestor.

support of the Brandenurg-Prussian claims on Silesia. In 1701 he married Anna Margarete Kühne, whose father was a physician; he had six children with her. He built up one of the most extensive private libraries of the time, and between 1725 and 1730 he acquired three substantial estates. Embroiled in many controversies, Ludewig published hundreds of papers in Latin and in German on many aspects of law and also on historical, literary, numismatic, political, theological and philosophical topics (his Opuscula Miscella, Halle 1720, well illustrate the wide range of his baroque erudition), multi-volume editions of historical sources, numerous dissertations and, from 1629 onwards many contributions to the Wöchentliche Hallische Anzeigen. He was a strong supporter of Zedler’s UniversalLexicon, contributing a preface to the first volume, published in 1732 (see LÖFFLER 2007: 268). There is an entry by Ludewig dated Halle, 22 March 1711 and reading ‘Fac Deus! ne gaudeam, nisi in te, neque doleam, nisi extra te. Ceteras mortalium fucus, fraus, fallacia, vanitas, neque gaudio digna neque dolore’ (cf. E.

M [M–1a] RUDOLPH FRIEDRICH HEINRICH MAGENAU 5 December 1767–23 April 1846 Date of laureation: 20 December 1799 Place of laureation: Ludwigsburg (diploma issued) Laureated by: Johann Conrad Hallwachs Magenau was born at Markgröningen and died at Hermaringen in Swabia where there is today a school bearing his name. At the time of his laureation, apparently in December 1799, Magenau, was Master of Philosophy and a pastor at Niederstotzingen near Heidenheim in Baden-Württemberg. In his youth he had been a friend of the poet Friedrich Hölderlin (1770–1843). The diploma for his laureation states that it was issued by Johann Conrad Hall wachs, a man described as ‘der Rechten Licentiat, Kaiserlicher Hof- und PfalzGraf’. This creates a problem in as much as Hallwachs lived from 1718 to 28 October 1789, thus dying ten years before the date stated on the diploma. The question thus arises whether the date on the diploma should read 1789 (rather than 1799) or whether the Hallwachs concerned was a different person. Johann Conrad Hallwachs had several sons, including one Johann Karl Georg Hallwachs, but he too died in 1797, two years before Magenau’s laureation; another was Jakob Ludwig Konrad Hallwachs (1744–1829). The truth of the matter remains an unsolved mystery. The diploma, now in Stuttgart LB and here reproduced from Aus dem Antiquariat, n.F. 6 (2008), Nr. 2, p. 129, was mentioned by EBERLE 1964. In 1844 Magenau was appointed a knight of the Order of the Crown of Württemberg and ennobled.

Performed by/on behalf of: Johann Rist For further details see Handbook, M–14 (III, 1255–1256). Marcart was born at Schweinfurt in 1621. In the 1640s he went to study theology at Dorpat (now Tartu). He served as rector of the municipal school at Reval (now Talinn) from 1651 to 1655 and then became pastor at Oberpahlen (Põltsamaa) near Dorpat, where both German and Estonian were spoken. During the years 1644–56 Marcart published five books at Dorpat and Reval, along with ten occasional poems and nineteen further poems which he contributed to publications by others. Sixteen of these poems are in German, six in Latin and two in Greek. Whereas the Latin and Greek poems are mostly in elegiac distichs, in German he experimented with alexandrines, iambic and trochaic verse-forms, and also wrote a sonnet (see KLÖKER 2005: 237–44). Shortly before returning to Schweinfurt (fleeing from the advancing Russians) in 1657, Marcart published a poem in Estonian ‘Auffmunterung zur Dankbarkeit An Lifland Für die Ausbreitung des göttlichen Worts daselbs’, a dedication in the so-called ‘Luther strophe’ for the new Estonian Lutheran hymnal: Neu Ehstnisches Gesangbuch / Worinnen die Kirchen Gesange Sel. Hrn. Lutheri und anderer Gottseligen Männer in die gewöhnliche Melodeyen und gleiche Reimen verfasset sind. Zum Aufnehmen der ______________ 11 I am greatly indebted to Dr K.

Gemeine Gottes in Ehstland wolmeinentlich verfertiget und zum Druck übergeben von Etlichen Pfarrherren im selbigen Lande, Reval: Adolph Simon, 1656). It was one of the longest poems in Estonian in the sevententh century. Soon after returning to Schweinfurt Marcart composed eight verses in Latin to mark the death of the burghermaster Georg Wohlfarth; these he signed as poeta laureatus caesareus, the title having been conferred on him by Johann Rist. This poem was published as a contribution to the funeral booklet put together by his old school friend Johannes Andreas Piccart (1620–1666), who had become dean there in 1646 and Superintendent in 1654. On 14 November 1657 Macart also wrote a poem which survives in the (manuscript) chronicle of Johann Laurentius Bausch (1605–1665, municipal physician at Schweinfurt since 1635), Collectanea chronologica Suinfurtensia ... continentia (in the Stadtarchiv Schweinfurt; on Bausch, who founded the Academia Naturae Curiosorum (also known as the Leopoldina) in 1652, see UWE MÜLLER, in: ERICH SCHNEIDER, ed., Fränkische Lebensbilder, 18, Neustadt an der Aisch 2000, pp. 67–81, and UWE MÜLLER, Johann Laurentius Bausch ... zum 400.Geburtstag, in: Schweinfurter Mainleite 2005, 3, pp. 4–21). The poem is of interest in as much as it is written in Estonian, a language that was doubtless unknown to Piccart, hence also the provision of a German translation. His poem is subscribed: Schweinfurt den 14ten [11ten?] Nov. anno [1]657 Auf Seiner Excellentz Herrn D. Bauschens, alß seines Großgeehrten Herrn und Gönners Freund wolgemeintes Ansinnen in Eile abgefaßt Von Joan-Sebastiano Markardo, Suenfurto-Fr. P. L. C. Wor diesem gewesenes Schul-Rectoren zu Rewal, hernach Pfarrers auf dem Schloße Oberpahlen in Liefland, zur Zeit wegen der Moscowitischen Tirannerey Vertriebenen.

In 1658 Marcart returned to Livonia and died there in May 1659. Even during his last year of life he remained active as a poet: in 1658 he published at Lübeck his Rigische Ehrn- und Gedächtnis-Seule, a translation into German alexandrines of Henning Witten’s Latin prose sermon commemorating the men who had died in the war and from the plague at Riga in 1656–57.

Whether or how he was related to the poet called Albrecht Friedrich Mellemann (born 1538), recorded in DBI, I, 824: 412–413 (following JÖCHER/ADELUNG), is unclear. There is probably some confusion here which is no longer capable of clarification. Mellemann attended school at Stettin and then studied at the University of Frankurt/Oder. Later he undertook a grand tour through Germany, Italy, England and France. He attempted to gain the favour of the Elector of Brandenburg through his poetry, but before long he was obliged to go to Holstein to settle a matter of inheritance. His date of death is uncertain but the portrait in Seidel’s collection states that he was alive in 1593.

FRIEDRICH MENIUS12 FRIEDRICH MEIN 1593/4–November 1659 Date of laureation: not after 1633 For further details see Handbook, M–44 (III, 1312–1313). Menius was born in 1593 or 1594 in Wolegk (Mecklenburg). The details of his life are somewhat uncertain, but according to BEYER and PENMAN 2013: 170, the following seems plausible: After studying at Rostock and Greifswald, at some point he served as field-chaplain to the Swedish fieldmarshal Gustav Horn. Between 1630 and 1631 he was pastor in parishes near Riga. In 1631 he became professor of history at the grammar school at Dorpat (Tartu) in Livonia, continuing in this post when the school became a university in 1632. In 1617 he had married his first wife, but they separated in 1621 or 1623. In 1625 he married a second time, without securing a divorce, and when he became involved in a private dispute in 1637 some of his enemies discovered his bigamy (though the first wife had died around 1630). Menius was forced to leave Dorpat in a hurry and spent the remaining years of his life in several places, occupying different positions. He first lived on the then Danish island of Oesel off the Livonian coast and then moved to Sweden where he worked as a supervisor in a copper mine. Later he moved to Stockholm where he was imprisoned for publishing under the pseudonym Salomo Maius Consensus Hermetico-Mosaicus. Von dem wahren Anfange aller siechtigen vndt vnsiechtigen dingen (n,pl., n. pr., 1644), a work deemed heretical. He recanted after a year and was released. Hardly anything is known about the last fifteen years of his life. He seems to have died in 1659. In 1635 he published a list of his own writings as an appendix to a book on the origins of the Livonians: ‘Catalogus lucubrationum Friderici Menii’, in his Syntagma De origine Livonorum, Dorpat: [J. Becker] 1632 [dated 1635 at ______________ 12

He lists nine works as having appeared, with 21 octavos, 13 quartos and 12 folios (thus 46 more works) as forthcoming. That none of these 46 works appeared may be due to his being forced to flee from Dorpat; it is also likely that his purse would not have stretched to publishing all these grandiose projects.

_______________ [M–60b] FRANZ MILOT fl. 1539

Date of laureation: not after 1539 Milot evidently lived at Lüneburg but his dates are unknown. Our knowledge of him stems from an article on the Minorite Gerwin Haverland (d. c. 1535), long-time Guardian of the Catholic convent at Soest, in JOHANN SUIBERT SEIBERTZ, Westfälische Beiträge zur deutschen Geschichte, I, Darmstadt: G. F. Tasché, 1819.13 Haverland was apparently the author of two pseudonymous satirical pamphlets against the Protestants, published in 1539, several years after his death. The first was Ein Gemeyne Bicht oder Bekennung der Predicanten tho Sost, bewyset wo und dorch wat maneren se dar tor stede dat wort Gods Hebben ingeuört vp dat aller korteste durch Daniel van Soest beschreuen Im Jar M. CCCCC. xxxiij. The second was Ein Dialogon darinne de sprock Esaie am ersten Capitel, nömlich, wu iß de getruwe Stadt eine Hore worden — Vnd etlicke ander sproke meer, vp de Lutherschen bynnen Sost recht gedüdet wert. Im jar M. D. XXXVII. (A copy in Soest is bound up with two manuscript works by the same author: 1) Apologeticon, dat ys ein ______________ 13

CCCCC. vnd xxxviij; and 2) Ketterspegel, van arth, natuyr vnd herkompst der ketteren – dorch D. v. S. ym yar Dusent vyffhundert dree vnd dertych beschreuen.) With regard to the second of the printed items, SEIBERTZ writes (pp. 269–70): Ein so launiges Buch mußte vielen Beifall finden, den es dann auch, zum Verdruß der hart darin mitgenommenen Protestanten, besonders in jener Zeit der heftigen Religionspartheyungen, nicht verfehlte. Hierdurch bewogen, kauften sie fast die ganze Auflage weg, so daß es mit Ausnahme weniger Druckexemplare, fast nur noch im Manuscript circulierte. [...] Franz Milot, Poëta laureatus Lüneburgensis, hat ein großes poetisches Lob über diesen unseren vaterländischen Satyriker gesungen, welches uns Hartzheim aufbewahrt hat.’

‘Hartzheim’ is a reference to HARTZHEIM, Bibliotheca Coloniensis (1747). Checking with HARTZHEIM, p.102, produces a slightly variant title of Daniel von Soest’s book: Ein gemeine Bicht oder Bekennung der Predicanten tho Sost, beuuyset vvo und durch was mannen se dar torstede das Wort Godes hebben ingevôrt up dat aller körsteste durch Daniel van Sost beschreven jm Jar MDXXXIV. gedruckt im Jar 1539. Yet another variant version is recorded by BORCHLING-CLAUSSEN, Niederdeutsche Bibliographie, no. 1304: Ein gemeyne Bicht oder bekennung der Predicanten to Söst/ bewyset wo und dorch wat maneren se dar tor stede dat wort Gods hebben jngevort/ vp dat aller korteste durch Daniel van Soest beschreuen Im jar M.CCCCC.xxxiiij. Gedrückt jm Jar 1539. BORCHLINGCLAUSSEN give the place of printing and the printer as [Köln: Eucharius Hirtzhorn?] and note copies in Berlin SB, Göttingen NSUB (imperfect), Marburg UB (imperfect), Münster UB (imperfect), Soest StB, and Vienna ÖNB. HARTZHEIM, p. 102, records the following information about Milot: Francisci Miloti Luneburgensis Poëtae laureati in Rythmos Teutonicos Danielis Susatensis carmen Phaleucium opusculis appressum hoc est: Hoc nil verius est libro, secundent Dii tentata viri, probaque facta Authoris, mihi cujus haud apertum est, Nomen; sed faciant, ut edant ipsum Caelorum Domini; deinde dignus Dicetur bene laureâ corona Doctis laureisque laureatis Dicetur fore sanctus ô Poëta.

Once again, BORCHLING-CLAUSSEN offer a slightly variant description: Francisci Miloti Lunenborgensis Poete laureati in Rhithmos Teutonicos Danielis Suzatiensis Carmen Phaleucium, followed, they say, by 12 lines of Latin verse

GERTRAUD MOLLER14 MOLLER(IN), née EIFLER(IN); MORNILLE (PBO) (anagram of Mollerin) (baptised) 14 October 1637–16 February 1705 For further details see Handbook, M–69 (III, 1367–1369). According to KAMINSKI, 1920: 175, who consulted the register of baptisms at Königsberg cathedral, Getraud Eifler was born at Königsberg in October 1637 (not 1641, as stated in the Handbook and CERL thesaurus, following NEUMEISTER/HEIDUK, 1978: 414, and 3KOSCH, X, 1183). Her parents were Michael Eifler (1601–1657) from Zinten, Professor of Philosophy at Königsberg, and his wife Elisabeth Weier, who came from a family of scholars. On 14 February 1656 she married the Königsberg physician and later professor of medicine Peter Moller (Möller) (1628– 1680). They had fifteen children (according to KAMINSKI, 1920: 182, only ten), only three of whom survived. Gertraud Möller outlived her husband by twenty-five years during which time she was dependent on support from others, particularly Johann Ernst von Wallenrodt (1615–1697), who maintained his father’s famous library. King Friedrich I of Prussia granted her an annual pension for life (RICHTER, 1804: 477) and bore the expense of her funeral in Königsberg cathedral. Moller was a hugely prolific poet. She seems to have been stimulated by and to have modelled herself on Simon Dach (1605–1659) who, as Professor of Poetry at Königsberg, was a friend of her father and wrote poems in honour of the family, including a wedding poem for the Mollers. ______________ 14

PAULLINI, 1705: 92, called her ‘meine vormahls Ehrenwerthe Freundin / die mit ihrer wohlklingenden Poësie bey Hohen Chur- und Fürstlichen / auch andern vornehmen Personen / sich überahl beliebt und bekandt gemacht hat’. Indeed, Gertraud Moller was the best known woman poet in Germany in her day and hardly less famous than her Austrian contemporary Catharina Regina von Greiffenberg (1633–-1694). Her admission to membership of the PBO was engineered by friends in East Prussia. HERDEGEN, 1744: 393, reported: Sie ließ ferner durch den edlen Meleager [that is, Gottfried Zamehl], um eine Stelle in der löblichen Blumen-Gesellschafft zu erhalten, und zu zeigen, daß von ihr schon verschiedene Gedichte vorhanden wären, berichten wie sie etliche hundert Sonnettund Ringel-Oden, auch 4. Theile Arien jeden in 60. Oden bestehend, auch 24. oder 30. Bogen von der Rose in Saron fertig habe, und erwarte nur einen Verleger. Floridan [Sigmund von Birken] und die übrige damalige Gesellschaftere schätzten ihnen diß für eine sonderbare Glückseligkeit ein so geschicktes Frauenzimmer, davon ihnen Damon der Preuße [Martin Kempe], Meleager, Hylas [Daniel Bärholz] und Philemon [David Nerreter], würdige Lob-Sprüche zugeschrieben, in ihren Orden zu bekommen. Sie wurde also erfreulichst gegen das Ende des 1671. Jahrs aufgenommen.

Her laureation took place at the end of September 1671 when Sigmund von Birken sent a letter to her from Nuremberg by the hand of Gottfried Zamehl together with the laurel (for the costs of which see BIRKEN, Werke und Korrespondenz, 2009, pt. 2, p. 788) and a sonnet congratulating her. Moller thus became the first woman in Prussia to be laureated. The sonnet was printed in Pegnesis: oder der Pegnitz Blum-genoßSchäfere FeldGedichte [...], meist verfasset / und hervorgegeben / durch Floridan, Nuremberg 1673, fol. )(4r–)(5r: An Mornille. Deren Blume und Spruch. Ehrenpreiß: des Himmels im Herzen gebildet. [...] Floridans Sonnet / Bey übersendung des Lorbeer Kränzchens / An. 1671. Das Fräulein Poesy / ist ja ein Frauenbild: wie solt ihr Lorbeerlaub nicht auch die Frauen krönen? diß Föbus hat nicht nur gewidmet seinen Söhnen: den Töchtern dieser Lohn/ den Musen / auch vergilt das edle Thun/ womit er ihren Geist erfüllt. Von einer Frauen auch must er diß Laub entlehnen. den Schönen vor - gebührt diß Haar von seiner Schönen / in deren ausen - zier sich die von innen hüllt. Mornille / Frauen-Kron / Ausbund der Pregelinnen und Teutschlands Erato! den Berg des Ottocar macht ihr zum Helikon. Nehmt diese Lorbeer-Waar: Euch senden einen Kranz/ die andre Pierinnen.

Moller, Gertraud

297

Die BlumGesellschaft rufft / seit daß sie von euch weiß: Die Edle Preußin ist des Ordens Ehrenpreiß.

Moller’s poem of thanks in response, printed in HERDEGEN, 1744: 395– 96, and SCHREIBER, 1725: 195–96, reads: KOmme liebes Lungen-Kraut/ du gesunder Ehren Preis/ Welche mir die Granadill [the symbol of the Order]/ deine Königin verehret, Und mich/, was ich singen soll von des Himmels Ehre/ lehret/ Komm du solt mein eigen seyn/ aus der Granadill Geheiß/ Meines Heylands Marter-Blum/ nun mehr leg ich allen Fleiß Auff den hochgeschätzten Ruhm/ welchen keine Zeit versehret/ Keine Mißgunst stöhren kan der von Zeit zu Zeiten währet/ Und von keiner Aenderung/ noch von eingem Abgang weiß. Weg Du Ehre dieser Welt! nimmer wil ich dein gedencken/ Meines Himmels Ehren-Preiß sol den Sinn zum Himmel lencken. Diesen schau ich hoffend an/ dessen heller Sonnenschein Liegt im Hertzen nur gebildt/ biß ich selbsten ihn erlange/ Und zu GOttes Ehr und Preiß/ mit der Ehren Krone prange/ Dann wird meine Granadill/ JESUS Ehr und Preiß mir seyn.

Both NEUMEISTER, 1695: 69, and PAULLINI, 1705: 92, and several others point to the great esteem that Gertraud Moller enjoyed with the literary historian Daniel Georg Morhof (1639–1691). He wrote: Sie hat ein Buch teutscher Oden, die so wohl gesetzet seyn, als sie der beste Poet setzen mag, an das Licht gegeben. Es fehlet hie nicht allein nichts an Erfindung, an Eygenschafft und Zierligkeit der Rede, an gehöriger Kunstrichtigkeit, sondern ich darf kühnlich sagen, daß sie einigen Tichtern unserer Zeit, die dennoch einen Nahmen gesucht und erlanget haben, weit vorzu-ziehen sey.

Despite a promising career at the university, he was strongly attracted to the church, and in 1665 he succeeded his father at Bothenheilingen, moving to become pastor at Ebeleben in 1679. He took up a more prestigious appointment at nearby Greußen in 1686 where, however, he lost his papers and his property and indeed his church in a disastrous fire in the town in 1687; fortunately, his overlord, Count Christian Wilhelm von Schwarzburg-Sondershausen (1647–1721), and his friends helped him restore his fortunes.

Nedderstedt, Augusta

311

[N–4a] AUGUSTA NEDDERSTEDT15 d. c. 1685 Date of laureation: 1685? CHRISTIAN FRANZ PAULLINI, a member of the PBO, expresses himself in his Hoch- und wohlgel. Frauenzimmer, (1705), cautiously regarding whether Augusta Nedderstadt’s planned laureation actually took place: ‘Nedderstedt (Augusta)/ bewarb sich Anno 1685. um den Poëtischen Lorbeer-Krantz/ dessen Sie war würdig erkennet worden. Ob/ und von wem sie ihn aber bekommen/ kan ich nicht sagen.’ CORVINUS, 1715, col. 1321, on the other hand, regards it as a fact: ‘Nedderstedt, Augusta. Eine geschickte teutsche Poetin, so An. 1685. ihrer Kunst wegen den Poetischen Lorbeer-Crantz erhalten.’ ZEDLER, XXIII, col. 1547, similarly: ‘Nedderstedt (Augusta) ein gelehrtes Frauenzimmer, lebte im 17 Jahrhundert, und erlangte 1685 den poetischen Lorbeer-Krantz.’ FABRICIUS refers to her simply as ‘eine Teutsche gekrönte Dichterin’. JÖCHER in 1751 follows PAULLINI (1705) and ZEDLER (1740): ‘Nedderstedt (Augusta), ein gelehrtes Frauenzimmer, lebte im 17 Seculo, und erlangte 1685 den poetischen Lorbeer-Crantz. Pau.’ while FINAUER (1761) writes: ‘Nedderstedt Augusta, ein gelehrtes Frauen-zimmer im XVIIten Jarhunderte; machte sich durch verschiedene deutsche Gedichte bekannt, daher sie auch im Jahre 1685 den poetischen Lorbeerkranz erhielt.’ GANZENMÜLLER, 1998: 187, is mistaken to say that she belonged to Sigmund von Birken’s circle – he had died from a stroke on 12 June 1681, a few years before her supposed laureation. GANZENMÜLLER notes (p. 355) that none of Nedderstedt’s poems survive: she is thought to have written exclusively on secular subjects. Ganzenmüller repeatedly states that the poet died in 1685 but this cannot be confirmed. She is not mentioned in JÜRGENSEN 2006.

CHRISTOPH NENNING CHRISTOPHORUS NENNINGIUS LIBENWERDENSIS MISNIACUS before 1560–not before 1594 For further details see Handbook, N–7 (III, 1419–1420). The Handbook states that Nenning was mentioned by Bartholomaeus Bilovius, Horti poetarum Germanicorum III, Frankfurt an der Oder, 1596 (Wolfenbüttel HAB: 117.2.Poet.(b)), fol. D7r, as ‘M. Christophorvs Nenningivs Libenvverdensis Misniacus, P.L.’, thus from Bad Liebenwerda (Sachsen-Anhalt). His contribution to a work by Erhard Cell, Professor of Poetry at Tübingen in 1587, might suggest that he studied there, but he is not recorded in the Tübingen matriculation registers. He is, however, recorded as a student at Leipzig in 1574 (ERLER, Leipzig, I, 314), which means that he will have been born before 1560. His status as P.L.C. is first mentioned in an Ingolstadt publication of 1594, so his laureation perhaps took place that year, though whether it took place at Ingolstadt is not known. CERL thesaurus cnp01107304 gives his dates of activity as 1587– 1595. The question arises whether this poet is to be identified with the Christoph Nenning whose De duplici nobilitate diasaphesis, a poem of 300 hexameters addressed to Archduke Ferdinand II (1529–1595), is preserved in Vienna ÖNB Cod. 10105. This work was written between 1576 and 1580 or between 1582 and 1595 (see Tyrolis Latina, I, 256–7). The dates would at least be compatible.

AUGUSTIN NESER fl. 1560/72 Date of laureation: not after 1569 Place of laureation: Ingolstadt?

Neser, Augustin

315

Augustin Neser was born in the principality of Fürstenberg in Swabia, though his date and precise place of birth are unknown. His family were administrators connected with the Reichskammergericht. Neser studied at the University of Freiburg and, after obtaining his M.A., he taught rhetoric there. In 1567 he became a Doctor of Theology at Ingolstadt, a city where he had already been serving as senior cleric for three years. He became renowned as a preacher, a role which took him to Hagenau on Lake Constance, Basle, Dillingen and Landsberg. He died not before 1571 – indeed CERL thesaurus cnp01107332 gives the dates of his attested activity as 1566–1573. His status as Poeta Laureatus is known from the Chronica Numerali carmine of 1569 where he is described on the title page as ‘M. Augustinum Neser ex Furstenberg, Sacrae Theologiae Candidatum, Canonicum Viennensem, & Caesareum Castrensem Concionatorem Catholicum, Poetam Laureatum’. The circumstances of his laureation are unknown; he may have received it at Ingolstadt, or he could have received it from Maximilian II, to whom he dedicated a work, but in view of his strident Catholicism, it is perhaps possible that he was a Papal Laureate.

Barbara Juliana Penzel was the daughter of Johann Christoph Müllner, a clerk in the city administration at Nuremberg. On 17 July 1667 she married Conrad Penzel (d. 1687; ‘Amyntas’ in the PBO), rector of the Latin school at Pfedelbach. They received congratulations on their marriage from Martin Limburger (Handbook, L–44), Johann Geuder (Handbook, G–22) und Magnus Daniel Omeis (Handbook, O–3). HERDEGEN, 1744: 348, says of her, ‘Sie fühlte in ihren Jugend-Jahren einen ungemeinen Trieb zur Poesie, und da sie über des vortreflichen Opitzen Gedichte gerathen, fieng sie an nach und nach ihre Gedanken in Verse zu bringen.’ PAULLINI, 1712: 112, praising her profound knowledge of history, calls her a ‘stattliche Historica’. OMEIS/HAENDEL, 1688: 15, write: MÜLLERIA (Barbara Juliana), Norimbergensis, Historiarum campos sedulo peragravit, tantaque arte ac suavitate Germanica conscripsit Carmina, ut in Societatem Florigeram ad Pegnesum quæ reciperetur, nomineq; Daphnes insigniretur, digna omnino habita sit.

She was laureated at Nuremberg on 7 July 1668 – the date is deduced from a letter sent by Sigmund von Birken, together with the laurel wreath, to Johann Geuder requesting him to pass it on. Birken’s diary for that date records: ‘An Rosidan [i.e. Johann Geuder], samt den [!] Kranz und Band vor die Dafne’ (BIRKEN, Werke und Korrespondenz, 2009, pt. 2, p. 739). He addressed the following poem to her: An Dafne Bey gleichmäßiger Ubersendung. Sonnet. Der Lorbeer ja gebühret euch, ô Schöne: weil daß ihr selbst der Lorbeer seit und heist. Es bläst in euch Apollo seinen Geist, der euch liebt, wie er geliebet jene. Jhr selbst seit das, womit ich iezt euch kröne: was kränze gibt, man von der Dafne reist. So nehmt dann hin, was euer Bild euch weist, den Baum [i.e. the laurel bush] und Kranz: habt euch, für einen, zweene. Sie ziert nit euch: ihr zieret meine Kron. Jch, werd beschenkt: weil ich hab Ehr davon. Mit Dafne prangt der Pegnitz Hirten-Orden. Jhr ziertet hier, als Dichterin, den Strand: ziert auch forthin, als Hirtin, dessen Rand. Nie bässer ist mein Kranz verwendet worden. BIRKEN, Werke und Korrespondenz, 2009, pt. 1, pp. 267f.

Penzel sent her poem of thanks in the autumn of 1668. Following Ralf Schuster’s interpretation, the constellations mentioned in the poem are metaphors for Birken and Penzel: Kaum weiß ich Euch Hoch Edler Hirt zu Dancken, Jndem ich mich nicht Einmal würdig acht, Zu nehmen an was Eurer Güte Pracht Mir zuerkandt. Preiswürdige Gedancken Seinds, das Jhr nicht die, die im Unglücks Schrancken Sich zaudern muß; nach Art der Welt veracht. Hat Euch Huld mir Eine Cron erdacht So müsse sie wie iene, Sonder wancken O Hercules zu Euren Füssen Steh’n! Mit Stummer Stimm! wird Euren Ruhm Erhöhn’! Mein Öder Geist; weil doch auff keine weißen Er fähig ist Jhm’ Sattsamlich zu preisen: Es Schläfft der Muth. Doch hat nur gut gewillt Ein’ halbe Gab’ Offt Götter Händ gestillt. RALF SCHUSTER, ed., Die Pegnitz-Schäferinnen (2009), p. 84 and note 115 on the metaphors.

Birken and Paullini published poems to mark Penzel’s death in Der Norische Metellus, oder, Löffelholzisches Ehrengedächtnis [...] aufgerichtet durch die Blumgenoss-Schäfere an der Pegnitz, Nuremberg 1675. Birken expressed the wish that the best of her poems might be collected and published (see HERDEGEN, 1744: 350) – something that was achieved only in 2009 by SCHUSTER. Further works SJe ist dahin! Die Fürstin hohen Standes [poem on the death of Floriana Ernesta von Hohenlohe-Pfedelbach], Nuremberg: Endter 1673 (Dresden SLUB: Hist. Suev. 58m; Wolfenbüttel HAB: Db 4º 256). Her output consisted of occasional verse and songs. There are poems in Guelfis (Nuremberg 1669), the Todes-Gedancken (Nuremberg 1670; signed with B. J. P. G. D. [= Gekrönte Dichterin]), Pegnesis (Nuremberg 1679) and Balthis (Lübeck 1674; Bremen 1689).

[P–31] ANNA MARGARETA PFEFFER, née SPECHT17 ANNA MARGARETA PFEFFERIN 5 May 1679–6 October 1746 Date of laureation: 8 (diploma dated) and 14 (ceremony) October 1739 Place of laureation: Wolfenbüttel Performed by/on behalf of: Rudolf August Noltenius (an advocate) on behalf of Professor Christoph August Heumann, Pro-rector of the University of Göttingen For further details see Handbook, P–31 (III, 1520–1521). Anna Margareta Specht was born at Hannover (not, as WOODS/ FÜRSTENWALD state, at Wolfenbüttel). Her father Christian Specht (1647–1706) had begun his career as a preacher at the Kreuzkirche in Hannover, then became court preacher and superintendent at Eutin before ending his career as senior court preacher at Wolfenbüttel and abbot at Riddagshausen (HUSUNG, 1917: 121). Her mother Ilse Lucia Steding (1649–1709) was the daughter of superintendent Anton Steding (1621–1698) and granddaughter of the Protestant theologian and hymnwriter Josua Stegmann (1588–1632). After marrying Johann Georg Pfeffer (1666–1734; on him see JÖCHER/ADELUNG, V, 2175f.) on 14 November 1699, they lived with their seven children, of whom four died young, for almost forty years at Seesen in the Harz where her husband was senior pastor, provost of the Frankenberg monastery in Goslar, superintendent for Seesen and Ahlshausen and from 1728 superintendent-general of the Harz-Leine district. In the Beyträge zu den actis historico-ecclesiasticis (pt. 2, Weimar 1747, p. 254) attention is drawn to the learning and linguistic versatility displayed by the pastor’s wife who had died the previous year: Sie hat sich den Ruhm erworben unter die Zahl der gelehrten Frauenzimmer gesezt zu werden, weil sie sich von Jugend auf, nebst ihren übrigen Geschäften, auch den Studiis gewidmet, und es in den Sprachen und in der teutschen Poesie sehr weit gebracht, auch ihre Geschiklichkeit durch unter-schiedliche Proben in teutschen und lateinischen Gedichten gezeiget.

I am indebted to Sabine Koloch for some additional details regarding this poet.

Pfeffer, Anna Margareta

337

Her laureation had long been planned, as is evident from a letter she wrote in June 1734 (transcript in HUSUNG, 1917: 122–3) to Christoph August Heumann (1681–1764), her ‘Gönner und Freundt’ – Heumann had in fact taught her eldest surviving son, Georg Josua Pfeffer, at the gymnasium in Göttingen. Her middle son, Johann Ferdinand, delivered to her Heumann’s request to let him see her poems, and he it was also who was able to inform her that Heumann wished to nominate her for laureation. Heumann’s request to see her poems came to her, she said, ‘als etwas Traumendes vor’, indeed she had regarded it ‘vor eine traumende Phantasie des betrieglichen Morpheus’ that such a distinguished man had wanted ‘die gantz gantz leblosen Einfelle eines schwachen Frauen Zimmers mit krafftvollen Sachen begeisterter Sinne zu meliren’. Although she considered herself unworthy of the honour, she responded to Heumann’s request by sending him a packet of poems – her covering letter and the poems are still today preserved in Göttingen University Library (Cod. mscr. philog. 199; HUSUNG, 1917: 122; EBEL, 1969: 32). Two years later Heumann drew attention to her work in Zeit- und GeschichtBeschreibung der Stadt Göttingen (pt. 3, Hannover: Förster 1738, pp. 269–71) in the following words: Jch hoffe, es werde meinen Lesern ein angenehmer Dienst geschehen, wenn ich hierbey melde, daß er [Christian Specht] eine a. 1679. gebohrne Tochter hinterlassen, welche unter denen Teutschen Poetinnen einen ansehnlichen Platz verdienet. Sie heißet Frau Anna Margareta, und hat noch jüngstens wegen Absterbens ihres Eheherrn, Herrn Gen. Sup. Pfeffers zu Seesen, ein so zier- als bewegliches Poetisches Notifications-Schreiben an die Durchl. verwitbete Herzogin zu Braunschweig abgelassen. Die hiesige Bibliotheck verwahret viele ihrer Gedichte, so theils gedruckt, theils geschrieben: welche sich ein künftiger Vermehrer des Gynaecei docti [sc. Johannes Pasch and Johann Andreas Planer, Gynaeceum Doctum sive Dissertatio historicoliteraria Vom Gelehrten Frauenzimmer, Wittenberg 1686 and 1701] wird zu Nutze machen können. Jch kann mich nicht entbrechen, eine Probe ihrer Poesie anhero zu setzen, nemlich den auf den Tod ihres Eheherrn gemachten Trauer-Gesang, welcher der auf eben diesen Fall gehaltenen Parentation Herrn Pastoris Pfortners beygedruckt worden [...].

After Heumann had been elected pro-rector of the university in 1739 there was no further impediment to his plan as Professor for Literary History to laureate her. The official printed programme marking the event is preserved in the university library as 2 HLP IV, 34/10:1 (28). It seems that Anna Margareta Pfeffer was laureated at a private ceremony on 14 October 1739 by the Wolfenbüttel advocate Rudolf August Noltenius (Nolte) on behalf of Heumann. Her Latin diploma, dated 8 October, was printed in the second part of Heumann’s Nova sylloge dissertationum (Rostock and Wismar 1754, pp. 175–79). The event was reported in the

Bio-bibliographies

Hamburgische Berichte von den neuesten gelehrten Sachen (no. 81, pp. 695–96) on 16 October 1739 (see the extract in JÖCHER/ADELUNG, V, 2176): Göttingen. H. Doctor und Prof. Heumann hatte als Prorector und kaiserl. Pfaltzgraf, unlängst, (nemlich den 8 Octobr.) die Ehre, eine abermalige gelehrte Tichterin, vermittelst eines in Folio gedruckten Patents als kaiserl. gekrönte Poetin öffentlich zu erklären. Es ist solches die durch verschiedene nette Proben ihres besondern Fleisses und geübten Geschicklichkeit in Verfertigung teutscher und lateinischer Gedichte, schon eine geraume Zeit bekante Frau Anna Mararetha Pfeffern, eine Tochter des ehemaligen Obersuperintendenten zu Wolfenbüttel und Abts zu Riddagshausen, sel. Hn. Christian Spechts, und des sel. Hn. Joh. Georg Pfeffers, ehemaligen Superintendenten zu Seesen, hinterlassene Frau Witwe, welcher der Hr. Doctor Heumann das Zeugnis gibt: eam, adhuc puellulam, latinas, imo latinissimas composuisse epistolas, latinorunque poetarum delicias in sermonen patrium invehere coepisse. Der Hr. Doctor Heumann führet in eben dieser Ausfertigung sehr artige Gedanken von dem Unterscheide der Wißenschaften, welche sich auch darin äussert, daß einige, ihrer angebohrnen Eigenschaft nach, mehr mänliches, andere mehr weibliches besitzen, und iene daher sich am besten für die Männer, diese für die Weiber schicken. Sunt, schreibet er deswegen, [etiam] sua disciplinis ingenia. Melius aliae viris conueniunt, aliae feminis. Seueritatis & grauitatis quae plus habent, ob id ipsum viriles sunt: quarum maxima occupatio exornatio est & placendi oblectandique studium, haud iniuria muliebres vocabuntur. Posterioris generis disciplinae, quas inter POESIS locum tenet principem, ab iis, siue viris siue feminis, excoluntur felicius, qui virile decus coniungunt cum elegantia & venustate muliebri. Quo in genere MARO ac NASO eminent, aurei poëtae aetatis aureae: quorum alter eum in modum termperat virile ingenii robur pulchritudine muliebri, vt illud tamen hac dicendum fit esse maius, vtque Herculi similis ipse videri possit Omphales induto ornamentis; alterius masculo carmine praefulget atque oculos ad se rapit virginalis & mollities & formositas. Virilis itaque & heroici ingenii poëta, inter Latinos summus summo merito semper habitus ille est, hic feminei; id quod posterius vel muliebres illae querimoniae, novem Tristium libros inplentes, faciunt manifestum: cum prior ille arma virumque canens, tam longo in carmine nihil proferat, quod non armis viroque illo, quem canit, sit dignissimum. Efficitur hinc, iustissimum inter carminum artifices locum sibi vindicare mulieres haud paucas, corporis an mensis suae venustas atque elegantia sit admirabilior, relinquentes dubium, certisque documentis ostendentes muliebri se corpori inclusum cor virile gerere. Non est huius spatii, honris causa nominare Graecas & Romanas & Teutonicas poëtias. &c. &c.

On 27 October 1739 the Hamburgische Berichte (no. 84, p. 720) carried a further report, this time focusing specifically on the laureation ceremony which, in the case of women, had to be performed outside the university premises: Wolfenbüttel. Zu Ergenzung dessen, was neulich in den Berichten von der zur gekrönten Poetin erhobenen Frau Generalsuperintendentin Pfeffern/ so sich nach ihres Mannes Tode hieselbst aufgehalten hat, erwehnet worden, kan von hieraus

Pfeffer, Anna Margareta

339

gemeldet werden, daß diese feyerliche Handlung hieselbst folgender Gestalt volzogen worden. Nachmittags kam man in dem Hause des Hn. Kanzeleyadvocaten Pfeffers, als Sohnes von der Frau Superintend. zusammen, und fand sich unterandern, der Hr. Advocat Noltenius und der durch seine verschiedentlich herausgegebenen Poesien, berühmt gewordene Hr. Hofprediger Märtens dabey ein: wovon erstere der Frau Candidatin im Namen des Hn. Doct. Heumans, als Promotoris, den durch ein hiesiges vornehmes Frauenzimmer verfertigten und mit einem reichen Silberband durchflochtenen poetischen Lorbeerkranz nach einer kurzen Anrede aufsetzte, letzterer aber ein noch ungedrucktes Glückwünschungsgedicht überreichte. Belobter Hr. Noltenius fügte dem Lorbeerkranz noch dieses Motto aus dem Ovidio bey: Ut splendet laurus semper nec fronde caduca Carpitur, aeternum sic gerat illa decus! Die Frau Generalsuperintendentin las darauf ein in Zeit von zwey Stunden verfertigtes lebhaftes Gedicht, in unserem Beysein ab, worin sie den Ruhm der Universitet Göttingen besang und die Gütigkeit des Hn. Doct. Heumans preisete, welcher ohne ihren Vorbewust, ihr diese Würde ertheilet hatte. Zuletzt dankte sie dem Herrn Adv. Noltenius für den ihr aufgesetzten Tichterkranz. Nach diesen volbrachten Feyrlichkeiten, ward den Anwesenden mit einer wohleingerichteten Abendmahlzeit aufgewartet. Währender Zeit unterhielte man sich mit sehr angenehmen gelehrten Unterredungen, und bemühte sich unter andern die Neugekrönte dahin zubewegen/ daß sie ihre vornehmsten Gedichte, welche bey dem durchl. Hause vielen Beyfal gefunden, zum Druck befordern mögte: welches sie zwar aus einer besondern Sitsamkeit von sich ablehnete, aber doch vieleicht noch bewerkstelligen mögte.

The detailed account of the event was continued in the Hamburgische Berichte for 8 March 1740 (St. 20, pp. 170–73), this time under the initials ‘M H.’ ‒ it is possible, but not certain, that this was the afore-mentioned ‘Hr. Hofprediger Märtens’ but, at any event, whoever it was had certainly witnessed the ceremony: Wolfenbüttel vom 20. Febr. M H. Da dieselben bey dem Ablauf vorigen Jahres unserer so gelehrten, als nun-mehro hochberühmten Tichterinn, der Fr. Generalsuperintendentin Pfeffern, die Ehre gethan, der feyerlichen Handlung ihrer Krönung mit Ruhm zu gedenken; so kan mich nicht entbrechen, zu Ergenzung dieser angenehmen Geschichte, noch folgendes davon zu berichten. Als der von der königl. Universitet zu Göttingen zu diesem Geschäfte bevolmächtigte bekante Poet und Historicus, Herr Advocatus Noltenius, an wolgedachte Dame, und die bey ihr versamlete Geselschaft einiger Gelehrten, eine wolgesetzte Rede gehalten hatte, beschlos er dieselbe, und setzte zugleich der Poetin den mit kostbaren Diamanten künstlich durchflochtenen Lorberkranz auf, mit nachfolgender Strophe aus dem Ovidio: Ut splendet laurus semper, nec fronde caduca Carpitur, aeternum sic geret Illa decus. welche er so übersetzte:

Bio-bibliographies

Man schauet diesen Kranz stets glänzen, nie verbleichen: Dein Ruhm, gelehrte Frau, sol gleiches Glück erreichen! Hierauf brach die solchergestalt gekrönte kayserl. Poetin in folgende Freuden- und Danksagungsworte aus: Was täuschet Morpheus mich im Traum, Wie; oder kann ichs würklich spüren? Der Sinnen Kraft erreicht es kaum: Ich mus mich selbst verlieren. Georg-Augusta, deine Pracht, Die mich nunmehr unsterblich macht, Erken’ ich mit gebeugten Knien. Die Ehrfurcht heist mich schweigend ruhn: Sonst würd ich, wie die Blöden thun, Die mir zu hohe Ehre fliehen. Ich schwere dann mit Vorbedacht Zu euch, ihr hocherlauchten Männer, Ich weis Sophiens Witz und Pracht, Ihr seyd der Wissenschaften Kenner. Glaubt, daß ich dieses Kranzes Preis Den man mir beyzulegen weis, Mich mus deswegen würdig schätzen, Dieweil es deines Scepters Gold, Magnifice! also gewolt, Ihn auf mein mattes Haupt zu setzen. Vertheidge dann, was du getahn; Beschütze mich für Argus Blicken, Und hänge dem Diploma an Dein Gunstgewicht, mich zu erquicken. So scheu ich weder Müh noch Schweis, Mich ziert ein grünes Lorberreis, Woraus ich eure Grosmuht schaue. Magnifice! die Ewigkeit Webt und durchstickt dein Ehrenkleid, Man kent den Löwen an der Klaue. Mein Gönner, nim denn an den Dank, Und trag ihn hin zum Leinathene. Der Ruhm, womit man mich besang, Gehört nur für die Musensöhne. Drum nim den Prunk nur wieder gab: Doch nein! ich trag ihn bis ins Grab, Und wil die Gutheit ewig loben. Gelehrter Freund, ich dank auch dir, Daß ich heut meines Kranzes Zier Aus deiner werthen Hand gehoben. Dreyerley mus ich hiebey noch bemerken: daß die Poetinn diese schöne und feurige Danksagungsode nicht etwa von Papier ablas, sondern aus dem fertigsten Gedächtnisse hersagte. Ferner daß sie selbige nicht nach langem Vorbedachte aufgesetzet,

Pfeffer, Anna Margareta

sondern gleichsam aus dem Stegreife verfertiget hatte, weil das Diploma mit der Volmacht von Göttingen wenige Stunden zuvor allererst eingegangen war. Ferner daß sie dabey die anständigsten Manieren, und am Ende einen artigen Scherz anzubringen wuste. Denn als sie in der lezten Strophe gesaget hatte: Drum nim den Prunk nur wieder ab! grif sie nach der Krone, und stellete sich, als ob sie solche dem Brabeutae, Hn. Noltenio wieder zurück geben wolte. Als aber derselbe die Krone anfassen wolte, fuhr sie, unter Wiederaufsetzung derselben, also eilends fort: Doch nein! ich trag sie bis ins Grab. etc. Unter den gebetenen Anwesenden nahm der Hr. Hofprediger Märtens Gelegenheit, seine sinreiche Gedanken über diese feyerliche und in Wolfen-büttel vieleicht noch niemals geschehene Handlung auf folgende Weise zu eröfnen, welche hernach, stat eines Glückwunsches der Fr. Generalsuper-intendentinn, auf Verlangen, zugestellet sind. Sol wil Georgia die Lorbeerkrone flechten, Die, weise Pfefferinn, nun deine Schläfe ziert. Erlaube, daß ein Herz von deinen treusten Knechten Bezeuge, was für Lust sein Innerstes verspürt. Du solt, gelehrte Frau, in deinen Kindern leben. Got lässet dir davon ein schönes Kleblat sehn: Zwey Blätter mstest du dem Himmel wieder geben; Nur Eins verbleibet hier in seinem Flore stehn.* Georg Augusta sucht den Abgang zu ersetzen: Sie weis, wie dein Verstand noch reich an Kindern sey. Damit nun iederman sie wisse hochzuschätzen; So legt sie dir den Ruhm der teutschen Pallas bey. * Zur Erörterung dieser Sätze ist anzuführen, daß die Generalsuperintendentin vor kurzer Zeit drey hofnungsvolle Söhne, welche die academischen Jahre bereits zurück geleget hatten, im Leben gesehen haben, davon der älteste annoch, als hiesiger Canzeleyadvocat, in gutem Ansehen stehet. Die andern beyden aber, als der mittelste, Senior des Riddageshausischen Convents, und berufender Pastor zu Kirchberg, und der iüngste, Canzeleyadvocat in Hannover, sind vor weniger Zeit, in der besten Blüthe ihres Alters, zu gröstem Leidwesen der gelehrten Frau Mutter, Todes verfahren.

EBEL 1969: 32, dismisses Pfeffer’s unconventional and deliberately amusing verses in these words: ‘Der größte Teil sind Oden an verschiedene Mitglieder des Braunschweigischen Fürstenhauses oder rührendsüßlich fromme Lieder, nachempfundene hausgemachte Pfarrhauslyrik einer wackeren Pastorenfrau.’ He remarks on the ‘certain originality’ of lines such as: Bin ich auch ganz incapable.

GEORG MICHAEL PFEFFERKORN 16 March 1645–3 March 1732 For further details see Handbook, P–32 (III, 1521–1523). According to CERL thesaurus, Pfefferkorn was born at Ifta in March 1645 and died in March 1732 (these dates differ somewhat from those given in the Handbook). He was the son of Georg Pfefferkorn (1591–1677; CERL thesaurus cnp00470189) who had studied at Wittenberg and Jena, been ordained at Eisenach and had served as pastor at Ifta from 1622 to 1669). Georg Michael Pfefferkorn was educated at Gotha and studied at Jena and Leipzig, In 1666 he became a teacher at Altenburg and then a tutor to princes in Gotha in 1673. In 1676 he appears as ‘Adjunkt’ in Friemar and in 1682 he became superintendent in Gräfentonna. HAUG 1780: 75, who implies that he was laureated in 1646 (which cannot possibly be correct: was he perhaps thinking of the elder Georg Pfefferkorn who had taken his M.A. at Jena in 1617?), says he was superintendent and ‘Consist. Assessor’ at Tonna; he lived to a very advanced age, being alive still in 1721. Pfefferkorn claimed authorship of the hymn ‘Wer weiß, wie mir mein Ende’, having been commissioned by Herr von Seckendorf to write it in memory of Duke Johann Georg of Eisenach who died of a stroke on 19 September 1686.

Magdalena Sibylla Weißensee was born at Maulbronn in Württemberg where her father, the Pietist theologian and poet Philipp Heinrich Weißensee (1673–1767), had taught in the monastery since 1703. From 1708 to 1722 he was a teacher at the secularised monastery of Blaubeuren until in 1727 he became prelate at Hirsau and from 1740 to 1767 Provost and Superintendent-General at Denkendorf.

lena Sibylla Weißensee was named (the duchess was her god-mother (KOCH, 1852: 269)). The Weißensees had two sons who both died young, with the result that the father brought up his daughter as though she were a son. Thus she learned classical and modern languages, theology and science, but she was particularly interested in music, poetry and classical literature. Aged not yet sixteen, on 31 August 1723 she married Immanuel (Emanuel) Rieger (1699–1758), an administrator in Blaubeuren who later rose to be Regierungsrat in Stuttgart. Through Rieger she came to be related in marriage to influential Pietists, including Schiller’s patron Philipp Friedrich Rieger. The couple had eight children of whom only five survived infancy. Magdalena Sibylla’s life was marked by illness; she found consolation in prayer, reading and writing poetry. In 1742 she corresponded regularly with her medical adviser, Daniel Wilhelm Triller, who encouraged her literary activities. At his request she sent him a selection of her verse which he published under the title Frauen Magdalenen Sibyllen Riegerin [...] Versuch einiger geistlichen und moralischen Gedichte (Frankfurt/M. 1743). This brought her fame and resulted in the University of Göttingen’s decision to award her the laurel on 28 May 1743 (see Göttingische gelehrte Nachrichten, 1743, p. 59). Her diploma survives in Göttingen University Library: 4 HLP IV, 44/52 (1). On 6 September 1743 the Hamburgische Berichte von gelehrten Sachen (no. 70, pp. 569–71) carried the following report: Stutgard. Aus dasiger berühmten Stadt in Schwaben, erhalten wir ein von der dasigen preiswürdigen Dichterin, Frau Magdalena Sibilla Riegerin, gebohrnen Weissenseein, nunmehro kaiserlichen gekrönten Poetin, gar geschikt abgefastes und bei dasigem Hofund Canzelibuchdrucker J.

Hat man die Dichtkunst dadurch annehmlicher machen können, daß man die Poesie, die Musen, die Elegie, das schöne Frauenzimmer gemahlet; so ist leicht zu erachten, was eine lebendige Muse für einen Eindruck in die Selen, die nicht unempfindlich sind, machen müsse. Das Schöne an der Dichtkunst wird desto reitzender, wenn es von derjenigen Tugend begleitet wird, welche dem zarten Geschlecht vor andern von dem gütigen Schöpfer, wie zu einem Schmuck und Einkleidung, gegeben ist; ich meyne die Bescheidenheit und Schamhaftigkeit, als wodurch der Glanz der andern Vorzüge zwar den Augen der Menschen in etwas entzogen, aber den Selen desto tieffer eingepreget wird. Dergleichen Betrachtungen vergnügten mich, als mir der hochedelgebohrnen u. tugendreichen Frauen, Magdalenen Sibyllen, vermälten Riegerin [...] Versuch einiger geistlichen und moralischen Gedichte zu Händen kam. Das Bild ihres natürlich schönen, lebhaften, durch die Vernunft gemäßigten, und durch die Religion und Andacht erhöheten poetischen Geistes, und ihrer liebeswürdigen, durch die Bescheidenheit noch mehr geschmückten Tugend; das Bild, welches sie selbst, ohne diese Absicht zu haben, in den belobten Gedichten ausgedrückt, und dem ein vortrefflicher Kenner von beiden in der Vorrede das Zeugnis der Aehnlichkeit giebt, hat mich veranlasset, demselben (wie bei den Statuten ehedessen gewöhnlich war) einen Kranz aufzusetzen. Kraft, also, der von weil. dem allerdurchlauchtigsten, grosmächtigsten und unüberwindlichsten Fürsten und Herrn, Herrn Carol des Namens dem VI. erwehlten und gekrönten römischen Kaiser, allzeit Mehrern des Reichs, etc. etc. etc. einem iedesmaligen Prorectori der hiesigen kön. und kurf. Georg August Universitet allergnädigst ertheilten Privilegien, erkläre ich Johann Andreas Segner, der Philosophie und Medicin Doctor, und ordentlicher Professor, als dermaliger Prorector erwehnter königl. Georg August Universitet, und Comes palatinus, die wohlgedachte Frau, Magdalena Sybilla Riegerin [...], aus habender Macht und Gewalt, in Kraft dieses offenen Briefes, und durch beigelegten Lorbeerkranz zur gekrönten Poetin, und ertheile derselben alle die Ehren und Vorrechte, welche ie mit dem Titel aus kaiserlicher Gnade und Macht verbunden worden sind, als eine Ehrenbelohnung ihres rühmlichen Fleisses; und als eine Reizung, ihre schöne Gaben ferner zur Ehre Gottes und Ausbreitung der Liebe zur Tugend anzuwenden. Urkundlich ist dieses mit dem anhängenden Siegel der Universitet, und mit meiner eigenhendigen Namensunterschrift bekräftiget worden. So geschehen in Göttingen den 28. May 1743.

In 1746 her second volume of poems appeared, more extensive than the first, and with an appendix of documents (pp. 339–491) relating to her laureation and her honorary membership of the Deutsche Gesellschaft at Göttingen, together with twenty-five messages and poems of congratulation, including ones from her parents, and her replies. Rieger was the first woman appointed to honorary membership of the Deutsche Gesellschaft (by 1760 there were twelve women, also including Traugott Christiana Dorothea Löber who was appointed in 1743 too). On 17 January 1750 Rieger was also admitted to honorary membership of the Deutsche

Gesellschaft at Helmstedt. An indication that she revelled in her success may be seen in the fact that her next volume of poems, published at Karlsruhe in 1754, mentions her title and her honorary memberships on the title page and dedicates the poems to ‘Denen Hoch-Löbl. Teutschen Gesellschaften zu Göttingen und Helmstädt’. Nine years before her death (on 31 December 1786 at Stuttgart, after twenty-eight years of widowhood), Balthasar Haug drew attention to her merits, in the Schwäbisches Magazin von gelehrten Sachen (1777, St. 2, pp. 108f.: Unter den noch lebenden muß ich zuerst als gekrönte Poetin die Frau Regierungsräthin, Magdalena Sibylla Riegerin nennen, deren Sammlung von Gedichten von einer guten Seite her bekannt ist, daß sie den Lorbeer so gut, wo nicht besser, als eine Laura Baßi, und eine Corilla verdient hat, weil ihre Gedichte kein Weihrauch der Schmeichelei sind, sondern der Warheit und Tugend gewidmet waren. Sie besang fast alle Jahre den Geburtstag ihres alten Hn. Vaters, M. Phil. Heinrich Weissensees, der als Probst und Generalsuperintendent zu Denkendorf 1767. starb, nachdem er unter der ganzen wirtembergischen Geistlichkeit sein Alter am höchsten, nemlich auf 94 Jahre gebracht. Er selbst war auch ein guter Poet, und sind verschiedene Gedichte von ihm in den Druk gekommen. Seit diesem hat sich die fromme Muse seiner Frau Tochter in der stillen Einsamkeit mit GOtt allein und sich selbst beschäftiget, daß nichts mehr von ihr gedrukt worden. Ihr Lebenslauf steht in dem Brukerischen Bildersaal rühmlichst, wie billig, aufgezeichnet.

(We may note that the Italian philosopher and poet Laura Bassi did not, as Haug implied, become a laureated poet, though she had obtained a doctorate of the University of Bologna in 1732. However, Corilla Olimpica, alias Maria Maddalena Morelli (1727–1800), did receive the laurel in 1776, like Petrarch, at the Capitol in Rome.)

He would thus not be identifiable with Johannes Roßfeld, alias Rosinus, who, according to Wikipedia, lived from c. 1550 to 1626 or according to CERL thesaurus cnp01879002 and ADB, XXIX, 237–9 from 1551, dying of the plague in Naumburg on 7 October 1626, or from 1551 to 1619, dying in Nuremberg (!) (according to the Bayerisches Musiker Lexikon Online). This man, also figuring in CERL thesaurus cnp01110347 as Johannes Roßfeld of Eisenach and active from 1579 to 1596 and under cnp01110348 (and also cnp00094996) as Johannes Roßfeld, councillor at Saatz, active 1577–1583, studied at Jena and then became subrector of a school at Regensburg and subsequently preacher in the cathedral at Naumburg and minister of a Lutheran church at Wickerstadt, near Weimar; he was the author of Antiquitatum romanarum corpus absolutissimum, Basle, 1585 (on which see JOSÉ RABASA et al., The Oxford History of Historical Writing, 3: 1400–1800, Oxford: OUP, 2012, pp. 254–5) – this work is attributed to all these men in CERL thesaurus, a sure sign of confusion. Yet another Johannes Rosinus (or Roßfeldt), living from 1540 to 1606, at Leipzig in 1564 and subsequently a pastor in various communities, is recorded in CERL thesaurus cnp00494699.

A son of Matthias Rüdinger (not to be confused with Matthaeus Rüdinger (R–84 above) who was not born until 1572), Paul Rüdinger (called in some sources ‘the younger’) enrolled at the University of Jena in 1591 and at Leipzig in 1593, taking his M.A. there (which probably means that he was not born until about 1572). Around 1597 he is attested at Arnstadt und Eckartsberga. He was ordained at Wittenberg in 1600 and until about 1626 served as pastor at Raudnig and Modlan near Teplitz. Exiled from there, he later became pastor at Herrengosserstedt where he died in September 1637.

HEINRICH SALMUTH b. before 1576 For further details see Handbook, S–8 (IV, 1798–1800). Secure identification of this poet remains problematic. CERL thesaurus lists several men of this name: cnp00476995 (1522–1576, a cleric at Leipzig and thus presumably the same person as cnp00874041 and cnp00095186 and perhaps also cnp00920450); cnp01110965 (‘the Elder’, fl. 1556–1589); cnp01160279 (1578–1613, a lawyer at Amberg); and cnp01110966 (‘the Younger’ whose dates are given – bizarrely – as 21 May 1592–28 September 1660 with his dates of activity as 1578–99 (!) and who is said to have been a member of the Swedish government at Stade in 1645). It seems likely that Heinrich Salmuth the Elder is the poet and that his dates of activity should be extended to from 1556 to at least 1592 since he was apparently still publishing in that year.

Her mother, Susanna Maria Scherbin, née Korn, enjoyed singing and thus, as WILL, VIII: 66, says, presumably ‘auch ihre Tochter von Kindheit an dazu ermunterte, so mag dieses zu dem Hang derselben zur Dichtkunst vieles beigetragen haben, denn sie fand an Lesung poetisch- und historischer Bücher einen solchen Geschmack, daß sie auch die erlaubtesten Ergötzungen der Jugend darüber vergaß. In ihrem 14ten Jahre fieng sie ohne alle Anweisung an Verse zu machen’. Kunigunde Scherb was admitted to the PBO on 8 August 1775 under the name Magdalis II, with the sunflower as her emblem (she is no. 166 in the membership list of the PBO at Nuremberg; see www.irrhain.de). For her poem of thanks composed on 30 December 1775 she chose to use the alexandrine. On 8 August 1778, on the recommendation of Johann Augustin Dietelmair, president of the PBO, she was laureated by the prochancellor of the University of Altdorf, banker, jurist and Nuremberg councillor Johann Conrad Feuerlein (1725–1788), a relative of Jacob

See her handwrittten diploma.20 She thus became the sixth woman from Franconia to have received laureation after Maria Katharina Stockfleth, Barbara Juliana Penzel, Regina Magdalena Limburger, Katharina Margaretha Dobenecker and Margarethe Barbara Birkmann. She died on 9 April 1795 and was buried at the St Johanniskirchhof on 15 April. A manuscript funeral sermon is preserv-ed in manuscript in the archive of the PBO. Works None of her poems seems to be preserved in print. However, an ode in manuscript, after a motto from Gellert, is mentioned by KÜGEL, 1990: 268. Comprising 36 Sapphic strophes, it was apparently written for Scherb’s friend Maria Mandleitner (no. 179 in the PBO membership list): An die zurückgelaßne Freundin der nun erblaßten N... Du bist von Gram jezt hingerissen Die Freundin starb: ‒‒ Du ließest bittre Thränen fließen Um ihren Sarg [...] From Scherb’s holograph account of her life it emerges that, aged fifteen, she wrote a poem on the Battle of Prague on 6 May 1757 which she sent to Field Marshal Kurt Christoph, Graf von Schwerin (KÜGEL, 1990: 186). Otherwise we are dependent on WILL, VIII, 1808, p. 67 who reports: ‘[Es] sind bei ihrer Leiche zwei von ihr verfaßte Trauerlieder gedruckt worden. Folgende Gedichte von ihr sind auch in den [!] Druck erschienen:

[S–35a] WENCESLAUS SCHILLING SIGWARDUS GARGUTHENIUS (pseud.) fl. 1615/20 Date of laureation: not after 1620 Wenceslaus Schilling is listed in the Altdorf matriculation register on 14 June 1620 as ‘M. Wenceslaus Schilling, Poeta Laur., Thuring.’ CERL thesaurus cnp00498379 describes him as a Protestant mystic from Kethmanshausen in Thuringia, active in Gotha, Helmstedt and Magdeburg. According to ADB, he studied theology at Helmstedt with the financial support of Count von Schwarzburg. He travelled extensively and claimed to have benefited from divine assistance in overcoming the onslaughts of spirits and ghosts. His rejection of prevailing philosophical orthodoxy resulted in clashes with professors at Wittenberg, notably Jakob Martini, and his exclusion from the university at Helmstedt, but again thanks to the support of Count von Schwarzburg he was appointed pastor at Rudolstadt where, however, he died following maltreatment at the hands of soldiers during the Thirty Years War.

Schlegel – the great-great-grandfather of August Wilhelm Schlegel (1767– 1845) – was born at Kmehlen, near Priestewitz, in Saxony. He studied at Leipzig and Jena, enrolling here already as M.A. in 1631. He became a tutor, court preacher at Zerbst, then in 1637 pastor and schoolteacher at Breslau. In 1644 he was appointed provost at Breslau and in 1645 he received a doctorate in theology from Wittenberg. In 1647 he became senior pastor at Leutschau (Levoča) in Hungary. In 1660 he was appointed superintendent at Herzberg and in 1662 at Grimma. In 1651 he was ennobled by Emperor Leopold I, taking the title Schlegel von Gottleben.

Bio-bibliographies

Schmiedichen came from Dornburg in Thuringia. He enrolled to study law at Königsberg on 1 November 1677 (ERLER, Königsberg, II, 105). A contribution by him signed K.G.P. is in HPGEBA 16: 0578 (Königsberg, 1688), and he signs as ‘Emanuel Christian Schmiedichen K. G. Poet und Gerichtsverwandten zu Königsberg im Löbenicht’ in HPGEBA 16: 0314 (Königsberg, 1698). That he stayed in Königsberg is probably indicated by the fact that a Gotthilf Daniel Schmiedichen from Königsberg, very possibly his son, enrolled there as a student of law on 27 April 1715 (ERLER, Königsberg, II, 285).

JOHANNES ALEXANDER SCHRADER21 JOHANNES ALEXANDER SCRADERUS fl. 1569 Date of laureation: not after 1569 Author of a Latin hexameter translation of Iliad III and IV, dedicated to the Emperor Maximilian II (1564–76) and the Archbishop of Prague, Antonín Brus z Mohelnice (1561–80) who, however, is not named. It was published in 1569; a single exemplar could be identified in Wolfenbüttel. Whether he was laureated by Maximilian II is uncertain, but it is possible. His translation of Iliad III has nearly the same length as the original, its 461 lines are translated in 465 unnumbered lines; the 544 lines of Iliad IV are shrunk to 482 lines. The dedication reads: Ad Caesarem et lectorem. [Inc.]: (fol.

His dates can be amended to ‘15**–not before 1630’. He signs as ‘Petrus Scultetus Wolavius, Diaconus Neostad.

Scultetus was born at Oschatz and died at Breslau, apparently on 24 June 1620 rather than on 26 April of that year, His laureation is celebrated in Laurea Melissaea, Geneva 1595 (Dresden SLUB: Lit.Lat.rec.A.1375,2). He is, it would seem, to be distinguished from a contemporary, Tobias Scultetus [II], who is said to have been born on 25 July 1563 at Reichen bach (CERL thesaurus cnp01112254; Handbook S–89 (IV, 1925–1926)), author of Disticha latino-germanico in evangelia dominicalia & festivalia, Breslau 1596 (VD16 ZV 14294; Dresden SLUB). Reichenbach lies south-west of Zwickau, Oschatz between Leipig and Dresden. These two places are not far apart. Kłodzko, in Poland, near where Scultetus [II] was pastor, lies south of Warsaw. The similarity in the life-spans of these two men seems likely to give rise to confusion, especially over the authorship of various works, Further works De illustriss. ac potentissimorum. principum, atque electorum splendidissimo in urbem Numburgum ingressu, III. id.

For further details see Handbook, S–96 (IV, 1934–1935). As noted in the Handbook, ZEDLER reports that Seger had a copper engraving made of himself and the crucified Christ. This shows the words ‘Domine Jesu, amas me?’, coming from his mouth, and Jesus answering, ‘Clarissime, pereximie, nec non doctissime Domine Magister Segere, Poeta laureate caesaree, & scholae Wittebergensis Rector dignissime, ego amo

Bio-bibliographies

te.’ A slightly different version of this anecdote, with Christ saying ‘Clarissime, Nobilissime, atque Doctissime, Domine M. Seger, Rector Scholae Wittebergensis, Meritissime atque Dignissime, omnino amo te’, is mentioned as a particularly extreme example of ‘Titul-Sucht’ in JULIUS BERNHARD VON ROHR, Einleitung zur Ceremonielwissenschaft der PrivatPersonen, Berlin 1728, repr. Leipzig 1989, p. 79. The anecdote is further mentioned in a review by Samuel Y. Edgerton of ANTHONY GRAFTON, Bring Out Your Dead: The Past as Revelation, Harvard UP, 2001, in Times Higher [London], 8 November 2002: […] Certainly, Kircher and Scaliger were honest if erratic geniuses, but many lesser talents of the time compiled equally long-winded, yet utterly pompous and incomprehensible tomes, adumbrating the opaque babble of some of our present-day “deconstructionists”. Indeed, David Lodge, if he reads Grafton's book, might well be prompted to write a comparable Renaissance parody. He need look no further for a 17th-century Morris Zapp than Johann Seger, one-time rector of the University of Wittenberg and imperial poet laureate, who commissioned an engraving, prints of which were intended to be distributed to his colleagues, depicting himself standing before crucified Christ. From Seger's mouth issued the inscribed words, “Lord Jesus, do you love me?” From Jesus's bowed head came the reply, “Yes, most eminent, excellent, and learned Master Seger, imperial poet laureate and worthy rector of Wittenberg, I do love you.” This droll anecdote should not diminish our appreciation of the serious overall contribution of Renaissance humanism to 18th-century advances in empirical scientific reasoning and modern historiographical method, as deduced especially in the brilliant minds of Descartes and Vico. As Grafton summarises: “A standard genealogy of modern thought, one inherited from its 17th-century creators, suggests that the new philosophy that called everything into doubt grew in soil fertilized by the ashes of the humanist tradition. The whole enterprise of trying to find guidances for modern behaviour in classical texts required readers to rip their supposed authorities out of time and context.

Seger was not, as claimed here, ‘one-time rector of the University of Wittenberg’ but conrector (in 1614) and rector (from 1622) of the Latin school at Wittenberg.

[S–96a] CHRISTIAN WILHELM SEIDEL CHRISTIANUS GUILIELMUS SEIDELIUS fl. 1733 Date of laureation: 17 October 1733 Place of laureation: Wittenberg Performed by/on behalf of: Johannes Gottlieb Krause ‘Christianvs Gvilielmvs Seidelivs Dvrrweitshena Misnicvs’, from Dürrweitzschen, near Grimma, is listed in JACOB FRIEDRICH LAMPRECHT, Sammlung der Schriften und Gedichte welche auf die Poetische Krönung der Hochwohlgebornen Frauen, Frauen Christianen Marianen von Ziegler gebohrnen Romanus, verfertiget worden, Leipzig: Breitkopf, 1734, p. 12, no. 15, as being one of twenty-one students receiving the degree of Magister Sapientiae et Artium and being laureated by Professor Johannes Gottlieb Krause at the University of Wittenberg on 17 October 1733. No works by him have been traced and he is not recorded in CERL thesaurus. _______________ [S–98] TOBIAS SEILER [I] c. 1560–1629 For further details see Handbook, S–98 (IV, 1936–1938) and Appendix B Sp–27 (IV, 2373). Secure identification of the laureated poet Tobias Seiler remains difficult. A man of this name signs as ‘M. Tobias Seilerus Leoberg. P.L.Caes. Ecclesiae Patriae Pastor’ in HPGEBA 20: 0551 (Liegnitz 1608). At this date the Tobias Seiler recorded in CERL thesaurus cnp00984127 as having been born at Löwenberg in Silesia on 16 February 1587 and dying at Spremberg on 21 March 1648 would have been twenty-one years old and thus, technically, just old enough to become M.A. and P.L.C., but when we find an even earlier publication under his name, Poematum M. Tobiæ Seileri Leobergensis, Poetæ Laureati Cæsar: Ecclesiæ Patriæ Pastoris. Fasciculus ..., Wittenberg: W. Meisner, 1604 (Wolfenbüttel HAB: Li 8337), it becomes clear that an earlier namesake, Tobias Seiler [I], is meant, for a man born in 1587 cannot have been Magister and P.L.C. at the age of seventeen in 1604. The Daemonomania of 1605 (details in the Handbook, IV,

428

Bio-bibliographies

1937) is stated to be ‘durch M. Tobiam Seilerum P.L.Caesar. der Christlichen Kirchen und Schulen der Keyserlichen Stad Lewenberg, in seinem Vaterland, Pastorem vnd Inspectorem’. Clearly, a man of such eminence at this date must be Tobias Seiler [I]. It thus seems likely that the poet was the Tobias Seiler reported as active in the years 1584–1599 (recorded in CERL thesaurus cnp01112341 and cnp00098438 but without further details). This man must surely be identifiable with the Tobias Seiler born at Löwenberg (Lemberg), who became archdeacon there, then pastor and dean at Goldberg. He then became Pastor Primarius at Löwenberg again before being appointed court preacher to the widowed Electress of Saxony. He died at Lichtenberg an der Elbe in 1629. The afore-mentioned Poematum M. Tobiæ Seileri Leobergensis, Poetæ Laureati Cæsar: Ecclesiæ Patriæ Pastoris. Fasciculus ..., Wittenberg: W. Meisner, 1604 (Wolfenbüttel HAB: Li 8337), fol. E4r-v, contains a poem on the death of his father, Philipp Seiler (not listed in DBI, but born 1521), pastor at Walditz (‘Ecclesiae Vvaldisianae pastoris’), on 26 April 1584, aged 63. This means that the poet, if he was already old enough to compose a Latin poem in 1584, was probably born around 1565 or earlier; a ‘Magister Tobias Seiler Leobergensis’ is indeed recorded at Frankfurt an der Oder in April 1583 (FRIEDLAENDER). He must, therefore, be Tobias Seiler [I], and his like-named son, Tobias Seiler [II], was not born until February 1587, three years after Philipp Seiler died. As for Tobias Seiler [II], born in 1587, he studied at Breslau, Görlitz and Wittenberg and served as pastor at Groß- und Wenig Waldiz from 1612 to 1627, at Löwenberg from 1627 to 1629, from 1633 to 1637 and also from 1639 to 1640, During the period 1629 to 1633 he was pastor at Kieslingswalde. In 1643 he is attested as pastor at Spremberg (see CERL thesaurus cnp00495765). There is no evidence that he was a poet. His son by his wife Ursula, another Tobias Seiler [III], lived from 1618 to 1660 (CERL thesaurus cnp02096497). He studied theology at Görlitz, Wittenberg and Jena and became pastor at Langen Neudorf in 1641 and from 1646 to 1650 also in Löwenberg. In 1650 he removed to Danzig and from 1651 until his death in 1660 was pastor at Dirschau in Prussia. Further reference works CERL thesaurus cnp01112341 and cnp00098438.

[S–100] ELISABETH VON SENITZ ELISABETH VON SEMNITZ; CELINDE (PBO) 2 November 1629 (?)–12 February 1679 For further details see Handbook, S–100 (IV, 1940–1941). Elisabeth von Senitz (also Semnitz) was born in 1629 (or, according to some sources perhaps in 1625 or 1626) at Rankau in Silesia. She came to live at the courts in Brieg and later at Oels. A widow and the first Catholic to be admitted to the PBO, she seems – though it is difficult to be certain of this – to have been laureated by Sigmund von Birken after she had sent him a printed and a handwritten poem as evidence of her skill as a poet in 1673. In addition to composing occasional verse and religious poems, she is said to have embarked on writing a novel. Further works Individual poems in various collections are mentioned by WOODS/FÜRSTEN-WALD 1984: 118, and JÜRGENSEN 2006: 439–40 (including manuscript material in the archive of the PBO in the Germanisches Nationalmuseum, Nuremberg).

JOHANNES STARICIUS c.1580–after 1626/28 For further details see Handbook, S–128 (IV, 1980–1982). DBI records three men of this name: (1) a composer from Schkeuditz, near Merseburg, attested as organist in Frankfurt am Main in 1609 (see ADB, XXXV, 487; DBI–DBA, I, 1212: 302–304); (2) an imperial notary from Frankfurt am Main, attested in Hamburg from 1620 to 1624 (DBI– DBA, I, 1212: 301); and (3) a jurist and chemist at Nuremberg, attested 1641 (DBI–DBA, I, 1212: 305). It seems (though it is not certain) that our poet is the third of these. It should be noted that CERL thesaurus cnp00942110 confuses and conflates at least the first two of these men. His dates are given as c.1580–c.1624 (HEINECKE 2016: 160) but according to Frühe Neuzeit, VI, 117, he died after 1626 or 1628. In the preface to his edition of Philosophia de Limbo (Magdeburg: Francke, 1618) he describes Ludolf XIV von Alvensleben (1554–1626) as a powerful patron, though what the precise connection between the two men was is not known. According to WOLLGAST (1988: 513), Staricius was ‘ein vielseitig gebildeter Mann, Jurist und Poet, Alchemist und Paracelsist, Mystiker und vielleicht auch Rosenkreuzer [...] über Staricius wird eine

MARIA KATHARINA STOCKFLETH23 MARIA CATHARINA FRISCH / HEDEN; DORILIS (PBO) (baptised) 23 December 1634–19 August 1692 For further details see Handbook, S–148 (IV, 2014–2016). Maria Katharina Frisch (whose year of birth is sometimes given as 1633) was a daughter of the Nuremberg pastor Johann Leonhard Frisch (1604– 1673) and his wife, Katharina Lang, a merchant’s daughter. On 5 December 1653 she married pastor Johann Conrad Heden (1619–1665) who soon afterwards became professor of theology at Altdorf and then pastor at Lauf an der Pegnitz in 1657. They had five children. After Heden’s death in 1665 his widow married Heinrich Arnold Stockfleth (q.v., Handbook, S–147 (IV, 2011–2014)), pastor at Baiersdorf in 1669, a position which he owed to Sigmund von Birken who had influence with Caspar von Lilien, superintendent-general at Bayreuth (KRÖLL, 1974, II, 65). According to WILL, III, 779, Maria Katharina had at least two more daughters with her second husband. Even before her second marriage she had been making a name for herself as a poet. Under the name ‘Dorilis’ she was admitted to membership of the PBO, at the same time as Heinrich Arnold Stockfleth, who ______________ 23

was known as ‘Dorus’. She was the first woman in the PBO to be laureated. Birken had been planning to laureate women since about 1667 – in his diary for a date earlier than 17 June 1668 he recorded ordering from a certain ‘Jungfrau Pet. Mezgerinn’ three wreaths for which he paid one Reichstaler: ‘Vor die 3 Kränzle der Schäferinnen 1 Imperialen und vor die 4 Schäferbänder 16 patzen bezahlt’ (BIRKEN, Werke und Korrespondenz, 2009, pt. II, 725). On 2 July 1668 Birken sent ‘Dorilis’ the laurel (ibid., 747) and addressed the following lines to her: Jhr, was ihr schreibt, ach! das hat Geist und Leben, ô Dorilis! Nehmt hin! ich muß euch geben das EhrenLaub, das vor uralter Zeit hat die begrünt, die im Olymper-Streit den Sieg erlangt; das diesen krönen muste, der künstlich schrieb und obzusiegen wuste im Dichter-Kampf. Auf euch fällt iezt die wahl: komt, tretet ein in der Gekrönten Zahl, seit unsre Kron. Mit euch die Pegnitz pranget, an der ihr nun solang so trefflich sanget. Komt dan zu uns, in ihrer Hirten Schaar: die denken euch zu ehren immerdar, wozu sie sich mit diesem Band verbinden. (BIRKEN, Werke und Korrespondenz, 2009, pt. 1, p. 371)

POPPE (1987: 78) has drawn attention to the expanded version of this poem which was published under the title ‘Floridans Antwort An die Edle Dorilis / Bey Ubersendung Des Lorbeerkränzchens und Blumgenosschaft-Bandes. A. 1668’ and which called forth further poems of congratulations from ‘Magdalis’, ‘Palämon’, ‘Damon’, ‘Polyanthus’, ‘Amyntas’, ‘Polidaner’ and ‘Prutenio’ – other members of the PBO. In his poem Birken reflects on the time when he had enjoyed the hospitality of Dorilis’s parents: [...] Jch denk zurück an Jahre/ (es ist sehr lang) als ich üm euch oft ware. Jch/ noch ein Knab/ sah euch ein schönes Kind. Jm Denken wir auch noch die Nachbarn sind am Tische dort: da euer süßes Lachen uns alle Kost zu Zucker konte machen. [...] Fürtrefflichs Kind! Jhr schreibet solche Sachen/ die schwerlich euch wird eine Hand nach-machen/ die männlich ist. Euch redet lang nit gleich manch stolzer Mops/ der an Einbildung reich/ doch arm an Geist [...].

In gratitude for her laureation and for her admission to the PBO Maria Katharina presented Birken with an apple-shaped silver-gilt drinking cup (‘Von der Fürtrefflichen Dorilis com Pomo (poculo) argenteo-aurato von 6 Lohten’ and a poem (see BIRKEN, Werke und Korrespondenz, pt. 2, pp. 742–43). In the first year of their marriage the Stockfleths published the first part of their allegorical pastoral novel Die Kunst- und Tugend-Gezierte Macarie (Nuremberg 1669), most of which was written by her (MEID, 1978: 22). The second part (1673) was entirely by her. On the title page of this she identifies herself as laureated: ‘Durch Die gekrönte Blumgenoß-Schäferin DORJLJS’. The motto at the foot of the second copper engraving reads ‘Méreat sic Foemina Laurum’ (‘thus the lady should deserve the laurel’). In the background we see the nine Muses wearing laurels on Parnassus and among them Phoebus / Apollo sits enthroned with a laurel wreath and cithara signifying his status as god of the arts and music. It is noteworthy that the phrase ‘Kayserlich gekrönte Dichterin’ appears only rarely in the works of the female members of the PBO – it occurs on the portrait of Regina Magdalena Limburger, but in the portrait of Katharina Margaretha Dobenecker a miniature laurel wreath on the edge of the picture testifies to her status. Maria Katharina Stockfleth received only the laurel but no diploma: Birken appears not to have issued any diplomas to the five women he laureated between 1668 and 1671. Maria Katharina Stockfleth died at Münchberg in 1692. A funeral sermon was given by Georg Samuel Martius, inspector at Markt-Redwitz. Entitled ‘Die irdisch und himmlisch gecrönte Dorilis in Trauer-Blumen’, it was published in Martius’s collection Mit und in der Zeit gebrochene Traur-Blumen, womit der Selig-verblichenen Grabmal bestreuet worden, oder Denck- und Danck-Rede [...], Mönchberg 1700, no. XI, pp. 222–53. Portrait Copper engraving by Sigmund Gabriel Hipschman in Die Kunst- und Tugendgezierte Macarie. Der zweyter Theil (Nuremberg, 1673), see SKOWRONEK, 2000: 323, fig. 55.

FRANZ XAVER TRIPS FRANCISCUS XAVERIUS TRIPS; FRANCISCUS PETRUS TRIPS 30 March 1630–16 September 1696 Trips was born on 30 March 1630 at Cologne where he was educated by Jesuits at the Gymnasium Tricoronatum. He appears in the matriculation register of the University of Cologne for 1645 as ‘Franc. Petr. Trips Col.’ – presumably his original name was Franz Peter Trips, the name Xaverius being substituted under the influence of the Jesuits (after the Spanish Jesuit missionary, St Franz Xaver (1506–1552)). On 22 April 1648 he entered the Society of Jesus at Cologne, beginning his novitiate at Trier the following year. In 1650 he took his first vows and became deacon and priest at Hildesheim in 1658. Sometime after taking his final vows at Düsseldorf on 1 September 1660 he left the order. On 8 December 1667 he succeeded his uncle Durandus Fingerhut as priest at St Viktor’s at Xanten. He reluctantly left Xanten on 1 August 1670 at the behest of

Philipp-Wilhelm, Duke of Jülich-Berg, to take up the appointment of parish priest at (Bad) Honnef, which he held until his death in 1696. During this time, from 1682 to 1688, he was also court chaplain and librarian to the Elector Maximilian Heinrich (1621–1688), Archbishop of Cologne. Following a decree of 1671 he took the opportunity to spare no effort to send non-Catholics, especially anabaptists, into exile and confiscate their property. When French troops burned Honnef on 24 May 1689 Trips lost his church and all his books and papers, including more than two thousand sermons, the labour of forty years. All his works refer to historical events of the second half of the seventeenth century. Some of them are preserved in manuscripts in the Historisches Archiv at Cologne. Embodied in his prose works are numerous poems written in the style of Virgil. On 23 April 1696 he was chosen to become dean at Siegburg, but he died of a stroke at Honnef on 16 (or 10, according to CERL thesaurus cnp01200281) September 1696. Works NELLESSSEN 1978: 215–223 records 17 Latin and 5 pseudonymous German works, but according to NEUHAUSEN 1995 this list is both incomplete and inaccurate.

Bio-bibliographies

Christian Umhauser, ‘orator’ from Innsbruck, is recorded as having enrolled at the University of Ingolstadt, without payment of fee (thus perhaps as a teacher) on 6 November 1497: ‘Dominus Cristannus Umhawser de Insprugk orator gratis’ (GÖTZ FRHR. VON PÖLNITZ, Die Matrikel der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität Ingolstadt – Landshut – München, vol. I, Munich 1937, col. 263). Given that Umhauser contributed to Libellus Josephi Grünbeckii de Mentulagra alias morbo gallico, it seems likely that he was somehow attached to the circle of humanist scholars around Maximilian I In the book Ubertini Pusculi Brixiensis duo libri Symonidos ..., (Augsburg: Johannes Otmar, 11 April 1511), fol. iiiir. (London BL. C.133.e.8., recorded in German STC under Ubertinus Pusculus as 11405.c.44.), the editor, Johannes Kurtz of Ebersbach, writes as follows in his epistle to the reader: ‘Venit nempe de manibus facundissimi viri Christianni Vmhauser Doctoris et laureati poete ad inclitum Christophorū Romer q[ui] prope Bulsonū vulgo dictum Botzen in castro Maresco residet vnde in manus devenit meas de qua q[ui]dem re plurimū exhylerabar.’ This book concerns the supposed murder of the boy Simon of Trent by the Jews of that town, their subsequent trials and executions, and the development of the cult of ‘St Simon’ in northern Italy and southern Germany. Ubertino Posculo wrote a long poem about the case c. 1480 but it was not published, for some unknown reason, until the 1511 Augsburg edition came out. Johannes Kurtz of Ebersbach, near Kaufbeuren, is attested between 1489 and 1512. He knew Heinrich Bebel at Tübingen. Around 1500 he seems to have run a Latin school at Munich; he described himself as Monacensis poeta. He was quite a prolific poet, writing mostly about topical events, also some religious verse. On him see 2VL, V, cols 463–468. Despite the length of this article, there is no mention of his involvement with Umhauser or Ubertino Posculo. Christoph Romer (Römer) of Bolzano was one of the owners, jointly with his brothers, of Maretsch Castle (Castello Mareccio) at Bolzano. There was a man of this name, quite possibly the same person, who was involved with the construction of Spandau fortress, Berlin, in 1559. Works Ars memorativa, Nuremberg: Ambrosius Hueber, 1501 (London BL: 1134.d.25) [this is an adaptation of the following] Artificiosa memoria ex Marco Tullio ... ab oratore Cristanno Umhauser excerpta et composita, n.pl., n.d. (HAIN 16090), dedicated to the Augsburg patrician Konrad Peutinger. This text also survives in a manuscript copy in Ottobeuren, Stiftsbibliothek, Cod. O.45, fols. 206v–208v. and Munich BSB has another manuscript version, adapted to the needs of lawyers, in Clm 4417f.

JOHANNE CHARLOTTE UNZER24 JOHANNE CHARLOTTE UNZERIN, née ZIEGLER 27 November 1725–29 January 1782 For further details see Handbook, U–9 (IV, 2143). Johanne Charlotte Ziegler, whose year of birth is given as 1724 by GOEDEKE, III, 331, KOSCH, and DBE (even though DBE is based on the entry in KILLY which gives it as 1725), came from a distinguished middleclass family linked with church and university circles in Halle. Her father, Johann Gotthilf Ziegler (1688–1747), was an organist and composer. Her mother was Anna Elisabetha Krüger. Little is known about Johanne Charlotte’s early years. When she was about twenty-five she married the physician and writer Johann August Unzer (1727–1799; on him see ADB, XXXIX, 331) who had been a pupil of her mother’s brother, the physician Johann Gottlob Krüger (1715–1759; see ADB, XVII, 231). In 1750 the young couple moved to Altona where Unzer practised until his death. In Altona the Unzers made contact with people of a similar age with similar ______________ 24

literary interests, among them Michael Dietrich Blohm (1726–1766), translator of the Iliad. In 1751 Johann Gottlob Krüger, who was Professor of Medicine and Philosophy at Helmstedt and would become Prorector there in 1753, recommended his niece’s Grundriß einer Weltweißheit für das Frauenzimmer to the Halle publisher, Carl Hermann Hemmerde, a Pietist, whose programme included popular works by and for women. Moreover, he was keen to pay Duchess Philippine, the highly educated wife of his liege lord, Duke Karl of Braunschweig, a compliment by dedicating this book to her. Presumably Krüger helped his niece over adapting material from Christian Wolff’s Logica and Alexander Gottlieb Baumgarten’s Metaphysica and the extensive coverage of psychology for her book. Similarly he probably helped her adapt material from Linné’s Systema naturae (3rd edn, Halle 1740) and Krüger’s own Naturlehre (1740) for the continuation, Grundriß einer natürlichen Historie und eigentlichen Naturlehre für das Frauenzimmer (1751). Johanne Charlotte Unzer became more widely known through her Versuch in Scherzgedichten (1751 with 29 poems, 2nd edn 1753 with 58, 3rd edn 1766) which contained many poems in the manner of Johann Wilhelm Ludwig Gleim (1719–1803) who in 1745 had published a collection under a similar title: Versuch in scherzhaften Liedern. The new poems in the second edition show the influence of Friedrich von Hagedorn (1708– 1754). In the preface she gives vent to her feeling of unease over what society deemed fitting for a woman: ‘Eine Mannsperson hat die Freyheit, von Liebe und Weine zu scherzen, ohne befürchten zu dürfen, daß man es ihr übel auslegen werde. Unser Geschlecht ist hierinnen weit mehr eingeschränkt.’ The book proved lucrative for her publisher, Hemmerde, but she herself had to put up with some scorn, for instance from Christoph Martin Wieland who, in a letter to J. H. Schinz on 18 April 1752 called her an ‘anakreontisches Mädchen’ producing only frivolous verse. Even before her laureation Krüger had arranged for her to be admitted to honorary membership of the Deutsche Gesellschaften in Helmstedt and Göttingen. As for her laureation, the procedure was almost identical with that in the case of Polyxene Christiane Auguste Dilthey (q.v.). People assembled on 2 May 1753 at the home of Prorector Krüger who was invited to provide evidence of Unzer’s poetic abilities and to make a

formal request in the presence of witnesses to arrange her laureation (ZIMMERMANN, 1914: 137). Her diploma (excerpts in ZIMMERMANN, ibid.) was published in 1753 together with her twelve-stanza ode of thanks, ‘Der Nachruhm’ under the title Dichterkranz by Hemmerde in Halle. In this book Krüger praises his niece as a woman who has shown ‘daß das schöne Geschlecht uns Mannspersonen weder an Stärcke des Witzes noch des Verstandes etwas nachgebe’. Further, he writes (fol. ):(4b–):(5a): Jhre Scherzgedichte, wovon in diesem Jahre die zweyte und vermehrte Auflage herausgekommen, nebst den vortreftlichen Gedichten, welche sich von Jhr in den Hamburgischen Beyträgen zu den Wercken des Witzes, und dem Wochenblatte der Christ bey den Gräbern befinden, bezeigen, daß sie eben so sinnreich und scherzhaft, als feurig, edel und erhaben zu dichten vermögend sey. Diese Gedichte wären allein hinreichend gewesen, Jhr den Lorberkranz zu erwerben, wie sie denn auch um derselben willen aus eigener Bewegung von der Königl. Grosbrittannischen Deutschen Gesellschaft zu Göttingen, und der Herzoglich-Braunschweig-Lüneburgischen zu Helmstädt in die Zahl ihrer Mitglieder aufgenommen worden. Allein Sie wollte auch zeigen, daß ein Frauenzimmer die ernsthaftesten Lehren der Weltweisheit zu begreiffen und zu beurtheilen fähig sey; Sie wolte zeigen, daß es in Deutschland nicht nur Philosophen sondern auch Philosophinnen gebe; Sie schrieb also auf mein Anrathen eine Weltweisheit für das Frauenzimmer, welche in zwey Theilen die Vernunnftlehre [!], Methaphysik, Historie der Natur und Naturlehre mit eben so viel Gründlichkeit als An-nehmlichkeit vorträgt.

Unzer herself wrote of her verses: Vielleicht verblühen in kurzer Zeit Die Zeugen meines Daseins wieder: Vielleicht sind meine kleinen Lieder Auch Opfer der Vergessenheit. Jedoch, ihr Zweck, mein Leben zu versüssen, Ist schon erreicht; die Nachwelt kann sie missen.

Unzer was the second woman from Prussia (following Gertraud Moller (q.v.)) to be laureated.

Her second collection (1754), the title page of which Hemmerde adorned with a picture of Apollo and Minerva doing homage to the barebreasted laureated poet, comprises forty-two poems on ‘moral’ themes and on ‘duties towards God, oneself and others’. In 1766 her nephew Gotthilf Christian Berth, son of her sister Johanne Christiane Ziegler, published her Fortgesetzte Versuche in sittlichen und zärtlichen Gedichten. In the preface, she states that most of the poems had been written about ten years earlier and that in the interim she had carried out her duties as wife and mother, noting that two of her children had died as babies and had herself been ailing for nine years. After 1766 until her death in 1782 she rarely wrote any more poems apart from New Year’s greetings and occasional verse.

Delio, perche recitò versi a la Majestà del Imperatorʼ (SIMONSFELD 1903: 300). The identity of this man long remained uncertain. WACHA 1995: 322, follows SCHMIDT (1952: 208) in presuming that the poet was the humanist Salemnius (or Salamius or Salaminus) Delius, a Polish contact of Celtis’s at Cracow, who had composed a panegyric on the Emperor. Celtis dedicates three poems to this Polish friend in his Libri odarum quattuor, cum epodo et saeculari carmine (Ode I, 9, Epigram I, 4, and Epode 6). (For Celtis’s friends at Cracow see GUSTAV BAUCH, Deutsche Scholaren in Krakau in der Zeit der Renaissance, 1460–1520. Breslau 1901, and J. FIJAŁEK, Z dziejów humanizmu w Polsce.

Celtis calls him ‘Delius’ because he compares him to Apollo, god of poetry, who was born at Delos (hence ‘Delius’). But such a nickname might suit any talented poet. However, WACHA also considered the possibility that Delius Volscus, a member of the circle of Pomponius Laetus, is meant, and the recent research of Gian Paolo Castelli has considerably strengthened the case for this identification. This reveals that Volscus, who came from Priverno in southern Latium (a nearby location is called Roccasecca dei Volsci), taught at Rome university for about twenty years in the 1480s and 1490s, though with a break in 1489/90 when he went to Perugia where, following Pomponius Laetus’ custom, he was known as Ausonius. His courses at Rome were all on poetry, which, it seems, earned him the nickname Delius. A letter from ______________ I am greatly indebted to Gian Paolo Castelli (Rome) for alerting me to the laureation of Volscus, for supplying copies of material that was not accessible to me, and for furnishing many details of his life and works. 25

Volscus Privernas, Delius Antonius

Vincenz Lang to Celtis mentions how Lang attended lectures by Volscus at Rome (RUPPRICH, Briefwechsel des Conrad Celtis, no. 256). Volscus addressed verses to Dr Johannes Fuchsmagen, a humanist in Tyrol, who, though uncreative himself, collected almost two hundred poems, many of them addressed to him, from a network of contemporary poets. This collection, the Codex Fuchsmagen (UB Innsbruck, Cod. 664; on which see Tyrolis Latina, I, 65), contains two poems by Volscus, published by ANTON ZINGERLE in Beiträge zur Geschichte der Philologie, I Teil. De carminibus latinis saec. XV et XVI ineditis, Innsbruck 1880, pp. lii–liii and the poem no. 69 at p. 99. This is headed ‘P. Delius Volscus’. What ZINGERLE and SCHMIDT did not know is that the same poems, except for a few but important changes, are also to be found in a manuscript (Ms. C61 in the Biblioteca Augusta, Perugia) written in Perugia around 1490 by the Umbrian humanist Francesco Maturanzio (Maturantius) as an anthology of contemporary poems for Alfano (Severo) Alfani, a member of an influential local family. In this collection there are three poems attributed to Volscus. These are: a funerary epigram which can also be found in a few other humanistic manuscripts, an otherwise unattested ode to Innocent VIII, and the poem in question. In the Perugia manuscript (a partial copy of which, written shortly after, is Ms C62 in the Bodleian Library in Oxford) this last poem is dedicated to Alfano Alfani, the addressee of the whole compilation, and not to Johann Fuchsmagen, and the author's name in red this time, instead of being ‘Volscus’ or ‘Antonius Volscus’ as in the previous two, is ‘Delius Volscus Privernas’. Castelli has traced further works by Volscus: two funerary speeches in Ms. VI, 73 (olim Pian Castelli 217) in the Biblioteca communale ‘Aurelio Saffi’ at Forli. One of these was delivered on 3 January 1498 for Cardinal Johannes Jacobus Sclafenatus (Schiaffinati) who had died at the end of 1497; this oration is mentioned by Jacobus Burchardus, papal master of ceremonies, Bishop of Orta and Cività Castellana, in his ‘Diarium Romanum’ and he specifically calls Volscus poeta. The second oration by Antonius Volscus, delivered on 18 September 1498, for Cardinal Gironimo Basso della Rovere, is preserved in Ms. Harley 5050 in the British Library. Volscus died between December 1506 and December 1507. Works Antonius Volscus appears as editor or contributor to the following: Ovid, Epistulae Heroidum, Venice: Batista de Tortis, [after 15.12.1481] (London BL; Munich BSB: 2 Inc.c.a.1087). – another edn, Venice 17.5.1491 (Munich BSB: 2 Inc.c.a.1601 h). – another edn, after 8.11.1482 (Munich BSB: 2 Inc.c.a. 1244#Beibd.1). – another edn, Venice 24.4.1484 (Munich BSB: 2 Inc.c.a.1489).

As indicated in the Handbook, the Silesian poet Heinrich Walther is well attested, but given that his dates would appear to be 1573 to at least 1638, he cannot be identified with Heinrich Walther of Jena, the author of Carmen heroicum, de salutifera nativitate filii Dei ..., Erfurt, 1574 (VD16 W– 989); hence the attribution of this work to him in CERL thesaurus, must be erroneous.

He was a member of the Solidalitas litterariae Danubianae. The circumstances of his laureation are not known. Reference works CERL thesaurus cnp00522600. – DNB.de kat. – BSB-INK.

He studied at Erfurt in 1678 and gained experience in practising medicine at Eisenach. In 1684 he is found as a student at Jena, becoming an ‘Adjunkt’ in the Faculty of Philosophy in 1691 and Doctor of Medicine in 1694.

CERL thesaurus cnp01115723 records Petrus Werner from Themar, attested from 1503 to 1518 in VD16, who may perhaps be him. OTTO refers to Caspar Cunrad,

However, CERL thesaurus has several records relating to one or more persons of this name who lived a century later. These are considered under Petrus Werner [II] (W–33a) below. A residual mystery concerns CERL thesaurus cnp00086395 which cites sources printed in 1552 (VD16 ZV 23491) and 1600 (VD16 ZV 8809); whether both relate to the same man is unclear, but it is at least possible that the earlier of these may relate to Petrus Werner [I] whose dates are believed to have been between 1520 to at least 1540. It is quite possible that Petrus Werner [I] is a spurious laureate. Further reference works CERL thesaurus cnp01115723 (Petrus Werner from Themar).

PETRUS WERNER [II] fl.c. 1590/1620 Date of laureation: not after 1602 Unlike Petrus Werner [I] (see W–33 above), about whom little is known and who may in fact be a spurious laureate, Petrus Werner [II] would seem to have been a lawyer from Bunzlau who may have been associated with the universities at Frankfurt an der Oder and Leipzig. CERL thesaurus cnp01115721 relates to a Peter Werner from Bunzlau who is attested as praeses at Frankfurt an der Oder from 1598 to 1603, while CERL thesaurus cnp00892038 and cnp01980135 refer to a man who acted as praeses at Leipzig in 1617, and CERL thesaurus cnp01999547 and cnp01038192 both relate to a Leipzig lawyer, active before 1618, and cnp00499425 to a Doctor of Laws at Leipzig, active before 1631. A residual mystery concerns CERL thesaurus cnp00086395 which cites sources printed in 1552 (VD16 ZV 23491) and 1600 (VD16 ZV 8809); whether both relate to the same man is unclear, and at least the first of these seems more likely to be better ascribed to Petrus Werner [I].

_______________ [W–36] ELIZABETH JANE WESTON27 VESTONIA 1581–23 November 1612

For further details see Handbook, W–36 (IV, 2239–2244). Though older studies such as WOODS/FÜRSTENWALD, 1984: 131; TRUNZ, 1992: 88, state that Elizabeth Jane Weston came from London she was in fact born at Chipping Norton in Oxfordshire (CHENEY, 2000: ix), and although the inscription on her tomb in St Thomas’s at Prague gives her date of birth as 2 November 1582, she was actually born between 4 March and 31 October 1581 according to the entry in the register of baptisms in the parish church at Chipping Norton. This accords well with her own statement that her father died ‘when I was barely six months old’. She was the daughter of the clerk John Weston (d. 6 May 1582) and his wife Jane, née Cooper. (According to TRUNZ, 1992: 88, and LEVIN, 2000: 281, she may in reality have been the illegitimate daughter of an aristocrat.) After John Weston died his widow married Edward Kelley (1555–1595/97; on him see ODNB, XXXI, 101–02), a colleague of the famous Oxford mathematician and astrologer John Dee (1527–1608). In 1583 Kelley took his wife to Poland; the children Elizabeth Jane and John Francis (1580–1600) would seem to have ______________ 27

followed later. After a time the family settled in Prague where Kelley entered the service of Emperor Rudolph II as an alchemist (see TRAUTE SWOBODA, Alchimisten und Paracelsisten in Prag, in: Prager Jahrbuch. 1943: 65–69). A rather different account of Elizabeth Jane’s early years is given by TRUNZ 1992: 88. According to this, she travelled with her aristocratic father and mother to France and Italy before the family settled in Brüx (now Most in the Czech Republic) where she learned Latin under Johann Hammon, the teacher whom John Dee appointed at Trebon in 1588. Whatever the truth of the matter, Elizabeth Jane’s stepfather Kelley fell from grace when he killed a member of the imperial court in a duel in 1591. Trying to escape from prison in 1597, he was killed and his widow lost access to her inheritance. From then on the Kelleys were impoverished and in debt. But thanks to her facility in writing Latin verses, Elizabeth Jane came to be celebrated as the ‘virgo angla’, the English maiden. She received particular support from the Silesian nobleman Georg Martini von Baldhoven (1578–1615). She directed examples of her verses to members of the court and persons with literary interests. However, although many distinguished people in Prague were well disposed towards her, her life remained precarious and in particular her chief aim, to enlist the help of Emperor Rudolph to lift her family out of poverty, was unsuccessful. ‘I weep for the poverty of my mother and she is suffering on account of the sad lot of her daughter. Give orders that part of our property be returned to us so that we may have a livelihood,’ she wrote in one of her Latin letters to the Emperor. In 1603, aged 21, she married Johannes Leo (Leon) from Eisenach, a representative of Christian von Anhalt at the imperial court, They had seven children. A poem she wrote shortly before her early death in 1612 concerned the election and coronation of Emperor Matthias (crowned on 26 June 1612); this was printed at Leipzig by Valentin am Ende (Wrocław StB: 4 E 1, 1044). Paul Schede Melissus sent Weston the laurel in 1601, having already written to Baldhoven saying, ‘As soon as the opportunity arises, I shall send Westonia the poet’s laurel, something that never happened before. I greatly admire her for her great learning and her passion for poetry’ (CAMENA Poemata: Parthenicôn). The poem he sent with the laurel is printed in the Handbook, IV, 2240–41. By way of thanks, Westonia wrote, ‘You owe your reputation to the fertility of your own person and of your muse. Your mouth seems to feed on honeycomb and affords me harmony and honey at the same time. You rival Horace and Vergil and the Greek poets. May you live long and fare well. Now I thank you no longer for the lyrical honey but for the laurel. If my songs sound richer and more artistic in future, I will make sacrifices to you, eloquent Phoebus.’ During the last

For further details see Handbook, W–38a (IV, 2528). Born at Wittenberg on 18 November 1751, Karoline Baermann, who was a daughter of Georg Friedrich Baermann (1717–1769), Professor of Mathematics at Wittenberg since 1745 (on him see NDB, I, 527), and his wife, Erdmuth Tugendreich, married the lawyer Christian Friedrich Wetzke on 31 July 1781. Her father, who was also a member of the Deutsche Gesellschaft at Leipzig, had encouraged her in her studies and she acquired a particular taste for poetry. She was laureated, aged 37, for her cantata Frohe Empfindungen über die neuerbaute Elbbrücke zu Wittenberg, am Augustustage 1787 geäußert von der dasigen Schützengesellschaft. The bridge had been officially inaugurated on 30 July 1787; her husband had the role of ‘Schützenkönig’.

SIDONIA HEDWIG ZÄUNEMANN29 SELINDE (pseud.) 15 January 1711–11 December 1740 For further details see Handbook Z–7 (IV, 2282–2287). As noted in the Handbook, Sidonia Hedwig Zäunemann was born at Erfurt in 1711, rather than in 1714 as most sources (e.g. BOHM 2000 and CERL thesaurus cnp01484537) state. The claim that she was born in 1714 was originally made in the Göttingische Zeitungen von gelehrten Sachen, 1741, St. 10, p. 78, which states that she was ‘den 15ten Jenner 1714. allhier [in Erfurt] zur Welt gebohren’. The error probably derives from the fact that the entry of 16 December 1740 in the church register at Plaue, where she was buried, states that she was ‘aet: 27 Jahr weniger 3 Wochen u: 4 Tage’ (EINERT, 1892: 196) when she died. The correct date of her birth was discovered by SCHUCHARDT, 1964: 68, whose genealogical research was neglected until the 1990s. ______________ 29

Bio-bibliographies

Regarding her most famous poem, Das Ilmenauische Bergwerk (1737), SCHALLDACH/PAASCH, 2000: 211, observe that it was a deliberate attempt on her part to stake a claim in literary history by exploiting a new theme. She wanted to be regarded as a serious, professional poet. She was the first woman laureate to regularly style herself as ‘Kaiserlich gekrönte Dichterin’ in her publications. Despite criticism of her embarking on things more appropriate to men, Zäunemann defended herself with determination: Zwar ist die Zahl der Frauen klein, Die sich in Wissenschaft bestreben, Und die mit Fleiß bemühet seyn, Sich aus dem Staube zu erheben. Jhr werthen Frauenzimmer auf! Bestrebt euch! steigt dem [!] Berg hinauf, Wo Phöbus herrscht, regiert und thronet; Wo man in seinen Tempel geht, Wo der gestirnte Pindus steht, Und jenes Chor der Musen wohnet. Auf! ringt nach Lorber, Kranz und Ruhm! Wer will euch diesen Eifer wehren? Dringt in der Musen Heiligthum, Und singt denselbigen zu Ehren! Nehmt Flöth und Cyther in die Hand, Und zieret euer Vaterland, Auf! rettet es von Schimpf und Schanden: Zeigt Geist und Gluth, damit man nicht Zum Nachtheil aller Frauen spricht: Es ist kein weises Weib vorhanden. (‘Der welt-berühmten königlichen Academie Georg-Augusta stattet [...] ihre unterthänige Danksagung [...] ab’. In: Poetische Rosen in Knospen, pp. 634–35.)

Her remarks on women’s education have become famous: Unsere ecklen Deutschen sind noch nicht gewohnt denen Weibes-Personen eine Ubung in freyen Künsten zu verstatten. Ihre öffentlichen Lehrsäle dürfen von unserm Geschlechte eben so wenig entheiliget werden, als die Moscheen derer aberglaubischen Muselmänner. Ein Frauenzimmer, das nach Weisheit trachtet, muß ihren Haß so sehr empfinden, als kaum in England ein Catholischer Prätendente. (Sendschreiben an die Herren Verfasser derer gelehrten Hamburgischen Berichte, in welchem kürzlich abgehandelt wird: Daß ein Philosoph nicht allezeit bey demjenigen, was ihm begegnet, ein Stoicker seyn könne, vielweniger seyn dürfe. Bey dem Antritt des 1737sten Jahres überschickt.)

As early as 1733 Johann Christoph Gottsched sought contact with Zäunemann to see whether it might be appropriate to admit her to membership of the Deutsche Gesellschaft at Leipzig; nothing came of it,

however (see DÖRING, 2002: 251). From 1734 onwards contributions by her appeared in the Hamburgische Berichte von gelehrten Sachen, whose editor, Johann Peter Kohl, granted her a status amounting to that of regular correspondent. This doubtless contributed to the spread of her reputation beyond Thuringia. She became famous through her poems in praise of the soldier’s life and her ode on the seventy-second birthday of Prince Eugen of Savoy (Poetische Rosen in Knospen, pp. 375–85), for which he thanked her in a personal letter (see DE BERDT, 1977: vi, 54–91; BRINKER-GABLER, 1978: 58; ADB, XLIV, 724). She was so successful in forming contacts with scholars that the University of Göttingen, whose foundation in 1737 she had celebrated in verse, agreed to laureate her (see TRAGNITZ, 1999: 97–131; DE BERDT, 1977: 210–19; GRESKY, 1984). In 1738 she published Poetische Rosen in Knospen, bringing together most of her previous poems, and in 1739, with her satire Die von denen Faunen gepeitschte Laster (see TRAGNITZ, 1999: 132–206), she aimed to create an audience for social criticism. The persiflage Die von der Tugend gezüchtigte Faunen (Nuremberg, 1740, ed. J. A. RÖSELER) was not the work of Christiane Rosine Spitzel (1710–1740; see WOODS/FÜRSTEN-WALD, 1984: 121, HEUSER, 1988: 311, and TRAGNITZ, 1999: 23, 207–32), but the Erfurt poet Amalia Magdalena Wilhelmina Silber (1712–1770) (GUSS, 2011: 118, n. 46). As for her death, it seems that she was drowned having been blown over by a strong gust of wind after alighting from her carriage when crossing the Zahme Gera river near Angelroda in the principality of Schwarzburg-Sondershausen (TRAGNITZ, 1999: 34; JOHANN CHRISTIAN MÜLLER, Meines Lebens Vorfälle und Neben-Umstände. Teil 1: Kindheit und Studienjahre (1720–1746), ed. KATRIN LÖFFLER and NADINE SOBIRAI, Leipzig 2007: 123). Her death was marked by the Strasbourg poet Katharina Salome Witter with the following lines: Es liegt, mein Wandersmann! ein Körper hier begraben! Jn dem ein Geist gewohnt, geschmückt mit Himmelsgaben. Es waren der Person GOtt und die Menschen hold, Weil Sie gelehrt und klug, das Gute stäts gewollt. So gründlich, zierlich, rein, hat Sappho kaum gedichtet; Als Sie geschickt und schnell mit höchstem Ruhm verrichtet. Sie hat den Lorbeerkranz mit allem Recht erlangt, Und der hat mehr mit Jhr, als Sie mit ihm geprangt. Wenn wo Bescheidenheit, so groß als Kunst und Wissen, Da hat man jederzeit der Tugend sich beflissen. Dieß machte recht in Jhr die edle Seele kund, Daß Sie bey Jhrem Witz weit von dem Pralen stund. Ein solches Meisterstück ward durch die Wasserwogen Uns eilens, unversehns, ja allzufrüh entzogen. Wer ist es endlich denn? ich weis, es schlüßt dein Sinn:

CHRISTIANE MARIANE VON ZIEGLER, née Romanus31 29 June 1695–1 May 1760 For further details see Handbook Z–16 (IV, 2307–2311). Christiane Mariane Romanus’s date of birth is variously given as 28, 29 and 30 June 1695. Her laureation on 17 October 1733 took place at Wittenberg – the University of Leipzig was not accorded the privilege of laureating poets until 28 December 1741. Ziegler was by no means the first woman to be laureated (as is sometimes claimed), but she was the first to receive the honour from a university with official powers to confer the title (see Appendix D). (Following her laureation, on 30 June 1734 the Oberkonsistorium in Dresden was ordered to instruct Saxon universities not to authorize any other honours of this kind without the prior permission of the Privy Council.) Nevertheless, because women were not then entitled to attend academic ceremonies, her actual laureation was performed in the Romanushaus, her baroque residence in Leipzig. As how unusual an event her laureation was regarded is evident from the widespread reporting of it – see Sammlung der Schriften und Gedichte welche auf die Poetische Krönung der Hochwohlgebohrnen Frauen, Frauen Christianen Marianen von Ziegler gebohrnen Romanus, verfertiget worden. Mit einer Vorrede zum Druck befördert von J[acob] F[riedrich] L[ambrecht], einem Mitgliede der Deutschen Gesellschaft (Leipzig 1734).

Gelehrten Sachen (1733, pp. 789–92, with Gottsched’s ode congratulating her, and 1733, pp. 830–31, with the text of her diploma). Ziegler was praised in particular by Johann Friedrich May (1697–1762) (see DÖRING, 2002: 155; KOLOCH, 2011: 94–7), but on the other hand she was heavily criticised by others. Ziegler’s productivity as a writer of verse and prose fluctuated (see KOLOCH, 2011: 110–31). Only after the death of her second husband (Ziegler) did she begin to write and she gave it up again in 1741 when she married, for the third time, Wolf Balthasar Adolf von Steinwehr (1704– 1771), Professor of History and Natural and International Law. She moved with him to Frankfurt an der Oder where she died, more or less forgotten, in 1760. On 23 August 1733 Johannes Gottlieb Krause (1684–1736), dean of the Faculty of Philosophy at Wittenberg, wrote in his capacity of Count Palatine to Johann Christoph Gottsched as follows: ‘Vielleicht fänden Ew. HochEdlen auch etwan jemanden, der die Lauream Poeticam annähme, wozu wir doch hier noch dann und wann Liebhaber gefunden, zumahl sich die Kosten nur auf 14 Thlr. belaufen’ (cited after KOLOCH 2010: 330).. KOLOCH 2010 gives a full account of the medallion that Köhler had struck in 1737 to commemorate her laureation. There were at least three different versions: in silver, bronze, and pewter (an example of the silver version is in the Münzkabinett, Staatliche Museen zu Berlin, item 18224391; two examples of the pewter version are preserved in the Staatliche Kunstsammlungen at Dresden, item B1D3207). In addition, there may have been one medal struck in gold, for the poet herself, but if so this appears not to have survived. Portraits Mortzfeld A 24792–A 24795.

RAFFAELE ZOVENZONI RAPHAEL ZOVENZONIUS, RAPHAEL ROMAEUS HISTER 1431–c.1485 Date of laureation: 1467? Place of laureation: Vienna? (or Trent?) Laureated by: Frederick III Raffaele Zovenzoni, also known as Raphael Romaeus Hister, came from Trieste; he died at Venice. Among his surviving poems are two included in an unsigned book of 1480, reissued at Trent in 1482, on the subject of Simon of Trent. The first three poems in the book are by Giovanni Calfurnio, a professor of Greek, born at Brescia, the first of which, Mors et apotheosis Simoni infantis, is the most substantial (255 hexameters). Hister’s two poems are of 22 and 16 lines respectively. The first tells of the martyrdom of Simon and requests him to protect Johannes Hinderbach and the author (Hister). (Johann Hinderbach (1418–1486), Bishop of Trent, was the prime mover behind the trial of local Jews for their alleged murder of the boy Simon of Trent in 1475 and promoter of the cult of ‘St Simon’. For an account of the affair and of the texts arising from it see F. J. WORSTBROCK, Simon von Trient, in 2VL, VIII, cols. 1260–75; WOLFGANG TREUE, Der Trienter Judenprozess: Voraussetzungen, Abläufe, Auswirkungen (1475–1588), Hannover, Hahn, 1996 (Forschungen

zur Geschichte der Juden. Abhandlungen, 4), and R. PO-CHIA HSIA, Trent 1475: Stories of a Ritual Murder Trial, New Haven, Yale University Press, 1992.) The second of Hister’s poems deals not with Simon’s murder but with his cult: in the poem Hister mentions the death of his little daughter Bartholomea and a promise on his part to visit the grave of Simon. The purpose of the collection is not clear, but KORENJAK (Tyrolis Latina, I, 75) considers it possible that Hister’s two poems were added to add lustre to the volume by associating a poeta laureatus with it. According to ZILIOTTO, 31–32, he was laureated by Frederick III at some date between July 1466 and the end of 1468, perhaps at Vienna but possibly at Trent. Zovenzoni’s Istrias, and some of his shorter poems too, were dedicated to Johannes Hinderbach. The portrait of him, by Giovanni Bellini, dating from about 1467, now in Castello Sforzesco in Milan, is sometimes known as ‘Il poeta laureato’. There is also a nineteenthcentury painting by Augusto Tominz (1818–1883), showing Frederick III, being pressed to march against the Turks by the Trieste poet Raffaele Zovenzoni, in the Museo Revoltella at Trieste. This meeting took place on 14 August 1470. Works For poems by him see www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?docPerseus:text:2011.01.0407 Edition See ZILIOTTO 1950.

It should be noted, however, that KRÜNITZ’s Allgemeine Encyklopädie der Wissenschaften und Künste (1822) ascribes the same medal to Bianka de Rossi. It seems highly likely that Reinhard was unjustifiably projecting his awareness of laureated women back to the fifteenth century. Reference works Not in CERL thesaurus.

TOBIAS EMRICH fl. before 1618 Not necessarily ‘spurious’ but decidedly uncertain. ‘Tobias Emrich poeta’ is recorded as having given a book to the fifteen-year-old Johannes Häringshauser on 10 May 1618; GLASSNER assumes him to have been one of the young man’s teachers. The book in question, which GLASSNER does not identify, is now in the Stiftsbibliothek at Melk. At the time of his birth, Häringshauser’s parents lived in Vienna where his father ran the Apotheke zum Goldenen Greif, then at Rotenturmstraße 3 but moving to the nearby corner of Wollzeile in 1612 (GLASSNER, 189). It thus seems likely that Emrich worked and may have studied at Vienna.

Gerlinde Huber-Rebenich (Bern; private communication) explains his designation as ‘rex poetarum’ as a pun in a letter of Johannes Reuchlin who, in his admiration for the poet, gives the name ‘Hessus’ a Greek interpretation: ’- ‘king’.

LUISE SOPHIE HAGEN 1737–1777 Luise Sophie Hagen, daughter of Bernhard Hagen (1696–1747), a Copenhagen apothecary, and Anna Margarethe Cøllner (1714–1748), was born at Copenhagen in 1737. She seems to have been orphaned at a young age for at the time of her admittance to the Deutsche Gesellschaft at Göttingen in 1753 she was living with her uncle, Johann Hinrich Merezien, at Elsfleth near Oldenburg (Lower Saxony). Around 1758 she married Jens Michelsen Beck (1721–29 May 1791) from Nyborg, Fyn, Denmark, who became a plantation owner at Beck Grove, on St Croix (an island purchased from the French in 1733; since 1917 U.S. Virgin Islands), senior assistant of the Danish West India–Guinea Company and a legal counsellor (Kanzleirat). As early as 1752 she referred to herself as a lady from Copenhagen, but no further details of her life have been ascertained. She was admitted to honorary membership of the Deutsche Gesellschaft at Göttingen in 1752. The title page of her 1753 poem on the death of her beloved uncle, Gerechte Tränen, describes her as ‘Mitglied der Königl. Deutschen Gesellschaft zu Göttingen’. However, BARTON’s description of her as a ‘gekrönte Dichterin’ appears to be erroneous. It evidently derives from LANSEN 1877 who writes: ‘Zwei dieser Dichterinnen – Frau

Dorothea Fuhrken in Neustadt-Goedens und die edelgeborene Jungfer Luise Sophie Hagen in Elsfleth – wurden sogar von der Deutschen Gesellschaft in Göttingen zu “Kaiserlichen gekrönten Poëtinnen” erhoben und mit Lorbeerkränzen und Diplomen ausgestattet’; however, LANSEN then goes on to describe only the laureation of Dorothea Fuhrken (q.v.). If anything, he seems to be equating Hagen’s admittance to honorary membership of the Deutsche Gesellschaft – at the age of only sixteen! – with laureation. For this reason her supposed laureation must be considered spurious. Her elevation to membership of the Deutsche Gesellschaft was celebrated in the Oldenburgische wöchentliche Anzeigen, Nr. 4, of 22 January 1753, in verses by G. B. Corbach entitled Glückwunsch an die Jungfer Hagen, zu Elsfleth, wegen der Aufnahme derselben in die deutsche Gesellschaft zu Göttingen. These begin: O kleine Dichterin von Götting sehr erhoben, Wie weis man hie und da Dich nach Verdienst zu loben? Wie nimmt das Musenchor dort Dich zum Gliede an? Und die Gesellschaft hofft, was sie nur hoffen kan? Dein Geist, Dein edler Geist, bricht stark durch Damm und Hagen, Steigt in den tiefen Grund, wills an die Sterne wagen. Er distinguiret sich von einem kleinen Geist, Von ordinairer Art, und was der Pöbel weist.

There follow eleven further stanzas (BARTON cites only stanzas 5 and 6) which convey the impression of a deeply religious, but not well-educated young woman. Hagen herself responded with her Danksagungs-Ode an die Königl. Deutsche Gesellschaft zu Göttingen, für die unverdiente Aufnahme zum Mitglied, pflichtschuldigst eingesandt den 18. des Jenners 1753 von Louise Sophie Hagen, einer Copenhagnerin, jtzo zu Elsfleth in der Grafschaft Oldenburg.

GOTTFRIED HERTZOG fl. 1660 In a booklet dedicated to Hedwig Eleonora of Holstein-Gottorp, widow of King Karl X Gustav of Sweden (d. 13 February 1660), Gottfried Hertzog, who came from Zittau, several times refers to himself as ‘Poet’; ‘Secretarius’ and lawyer, with ‘Poet’ always mentioned first. This is observable already on the title page and also, for example, on a page signed ‘Wismar den 10. Junii/ 1660 Gottfried Hertzog / Poet/ der Rechte Liebhaber und Secretarius’. Evidently he was extremely proud of this. There is no direct evidence that he was laureated – he always writes simply ‘Poet’, never ‘Poeta caesareus’ etc. – but the possibility cannot be excluded that he had obtained the laurel at a university. The poet is certainly to be identified with Gottfried Hertzog from Zittau (CERL thesaurus cnp01032065), described there as lawyer and poet. CERL thesaurus also notes one or more other men of this name: a lawyer from Aschersleben in Saxony and respondent in Leipzig (cnp00360272, cnp01054373 and cnp01973098) and one described as ‘Selbstverleger’ (cnp01952146). It is possible that all of these relate to the same man. If the Leipzig lawyer was the poet, he will not have been laureated at that university as it did not receive the right of laureation until 1741.

[Sp–22a] OLIMPIA FULVIA MORATA 1526–26 October 1555 Olimpia Morata, born at Ferrara in 1526, was married to the German physician Andreas Grundler (Gründler) from Schweinfurt. When Schweinfurt was destroyed in the so-called second ‘Markgrafenkrieg’ in 1554 they had to flee. Grundler found a position of Professor of Medicine at the University of Heidelberg and his wife taught Greek privately. She died on 26 October 1555, probably from tuberculosis. Olimpia was not actually laureated though her friends apparently considered her a worthy candidate: ‘Olympia Moratas letzter literarischer Plan, ein großes neulateinisches Epos über den Untergang von Schweinfurt, wurde nicht mehr verwirklicht. Nach dem Plan Curiones und seiner Freunde hätte ihr dies den Titel einer poeta laureata bringen sollen. Damit wäre sie die erste Frau gewesen, der diese höchste humanistische Ehre zuteil geworden wäre,’ writes BRINKER-GABLER:1988, I, p. 146; see also pp. 138–9. Similarly, SIGRID NIEBERLE, Gender Studies und Literatur. Eine Einführung, Darmstadt 2013: ‘[...] Olympia Morata, die wegen ihres frühen Todes als unerfüllte Hoffnung auf die erste “poeta laureata” der humanistischen respublica litteraria gelten muss.’ Of course, it is only speculation that these plans – if they had any substance at all – were thwarted by her early death, at the age of twenty-nine. Had she been laureated, she would indeed have been the first woman to be so honoured, about half a century before Elizabeth Jane Weston (q.v.). The notion that Olimpia Morata might have been laureated rests on the following sentence in Celio Secondo Curione’s letter of 1 September 1554 to her: ‘Age Sophocleum aliquod opus fac extet, vt tibi lauream, quam iamdudum merita es, imponamus’ (Olympia Fulvia Morata: Orationes, dialogi, epistolae, carmina ..., Basle 1562. p. 183). This seems to mean, ‘See to it that a Sophoclean work appears so that we may confer upon you the laurel which you have long deserved.’ (Cf. RAINER KÖSSLING, ed., Olimpia Fulvia Morata. Briefe, Leipzig: Reclam, 1990. who translates the relevant passage thus: ‘Ich bemerke nämlich, daß Du die Trauer um die Vaterstadt Deines Gatten in Deinem Inneren bewegst. Wohlan, so schaffe doch ein sophokleisches Werk, damit wir Dir den schon längst verdienten Lorbeerkranz aufsetzen!’) Curione’s phrase Sophocleum aliquod opus appears to mean ‘a Sophoclean work’ rather than ‘the Sophoclean work’ – Latin, of course, does not distinguish by using definite and indefinite articles, but the use of aliquod seems to imply indefiniteness: thus ‘a Sophoclean work’ or ‘some kind of Sophoclean work’. Taking KÖSSLING’s line, Curione appears to be

548

Appendix B: Spurious Poets Laureate

saying in effect that it would be a fine thing if Olimpia would produce an epic work which would earn her the laurel. There is no indication that such a work existed or was even planned. So the idea of laureating her was really a pipe-dream rather than a specific plan. Thus BRINKER-GABLER seems to be reading rather too much into Curione’s words when she speaks of Olimpia’s ‘last literary plan to produce a great Latin epic poem on the destruction of Schweinfurt’ which would have earned her the laurel. Olimpia seems to have had no such ‘literary plans’, and presumably Curione too had no serious intent to have her laureated as a poet. Nevertheless, it is striking that the possibility of laureating a woman should have occurred to him half a century before Paul Schede Melissus rewarded Elizabeth Jane Weston in this way. It is certainly noteworthy that Olimpia’s friends considered her worthy of the laurel. It is also interesting that in the Hamburgische Berichte von neuen gelehrten Sachen, 1737, pp. 591–93, the editor, drawing attention to a forthcoming edition of Sidonia Hedwig Zäunemann’s poems, recalls Celio Calcagini’s praise of Olimpia Morata. Hers was thus a name still to be conjured with where learned women poets were concerned, nearly 200 years after her death. And just as Curione toyed with the notion of laureating Olimpia, so also, again in 1737, an anonymous author, writing about Zäunemann’s poem on the foundation of the University of Göttingen was moved to write: ‘Meruit hoc carmine, & aliis politissimi ingenii sui monumentis, virgo nobilissima, vt poetica laurea ipsi ab Academia mitteretur’ (De academia Georgia Augusta quae Gottingae est..., Göttingen [1737], pp. 42–3). One wonders what form the ‘Sophocleum opus’ might have taken. Curione seems to be alluding to a passage in Cicero, Epistolae ad familiares, II 219 (XVI.18) which reads: ‘sed tu nullosne tecum libellos? an panguis aliquid Sophocleum? fac opus appareat’. But here, too, it is not very clear what the phrase means. Sophocles is chiefly considered to be the author of Greek tragedies. Thus it seems stretching a point rather when BRINKERGABLER speaks of ‘einem großen neulateinischen Epos über den Untergang von Schweinfurt’. Sophocles did not compose epic poems, but he did write elegies (e.g. on Herodotus). It is possible that Curione, when speaking of a ‘Sophocleum opus’, had an elegy in mind, perhaps on the destruction of Olimpia’s Schweinfurt in war. As well as being proficient in Latin, Olimpia taught Greek at Heidelberg, so we cannot by any means be certain that the ‘Sophocleum opus’ would have been a Latin epic at all – it could just as easily have been a Greek poem. The only possible further reference we have to any such project is perhaps found in Olimpia’s last, undated, letter from Heidelberg to Curione: ‘Carmina quae potui in memoriam redigere post ruinam Suinfordensem ad te, vt postulas, mitto’(Olympia Fulvia Morata: Orationes, dialogi, epistolae, carmina ..., Basle

MICHAEL RICHEY 1 October 1678–10 May 1761 Born in Hamburg, Michael Richey attended the Johanneum and the Hamburg Gymnasium. A very promising student, especially of European and Oriental languages, he went to the University of Wittenberg in 1699 and took his M.A. in 1701. Prospects of a post at the University of Greifswald were thwarted by his poor health which obliged him to return to Hamburg. By 1704 he had recovered sufficiently for him to take up an appointment as rector of the school at Stade, but he left there in 1713, partly because of military conflict in the area but more because of his failing health. He returned to Hamburg to convalesce, but in 1717 he was fit enough to resume teaching, being responsible for Greek and history at the Hamburg schools where he himself had once been a pupil. Despite his continuing ill-health, he taught for more than fifty years, dying at Hamburg in his 83rd year on 10 May 1761. That Richey received laureation is suggested by the following poem by him, printed in C. F. WEICHMANN, Poesie der Nieder-Sachsen, Hamburg: J. C. Kißner, 1721ff., II. Theil (1723), p. 222:

Auf den Poeten-Kranz Nimmst du den Lorbeer-Kranz / verwegne Scheitel / an / Davon mein schlechtes Blatt kein Blatt verdienen kann? Ja / ja / nimm dankbar hin / wiewol nicht ohn’ Erröhten / Nicht / weil du ihn verdient / weil er dir nur vonnöten. Denn / wann der Musen-Fürst vielleicht erzürnet fragt / Warum ich armer mich an CARLS Lob gewagt: So will Minerven Gunst vor seines Eifers Blitzen Mein strafenswürdigs Haupt / durch Lorbeer Zweige / schützen.

To what this poem alludes precisely is, now, less than clear. The chief difficulty is the identity of ‘du’. Is Richey referring to himself or to another poet? Whose is the ‘verwegne Scheitel’? (In older German Scheitel was frequently feminine; see GRIMM, DWB, XIV, cols 2476–81.) Is the speaker in lines 3–8 the same as that in lines 1–2, or are lines 3–8. an answer to lines 1–2? It seems probable that the poem is addressed by Richey to himself. Lines 3–4 allude to the acute embarrassment some poets felt when they acquired the title of laureate. One might perhaps consider that Richey had been laureated at Wittenberg, but there is no evidence of this. The clue lies in ‘CARLS Lob’ (line 6). At first sight it seems possible that Charles VI, Holy Roman Emperor from 1711 to 1740, may have laureated him. After all, Charles did laureate a small number of poets (see Handbook, IV, 2403), and Richey certainly did address one poem to him in 1716 – a rather slender offering, which might well account for Richey’s embarrassment (in lines 3–4 above) at receiving the undeserved honour. Laureation by this Emperor would have happened between Charles’s accession in 1711 or 1716 (the date of the one poem addressed to him) and the publication of ‘Auf den PoetenKranz’ in 1723. In fact, however, the truth of the matter is very different: Richey received the laurel, but not in the context of the Holy Roman Empire. He is well known for having composed poems in praise of King Charles XII of Sweden (reigned 1697–1718), but he did not bestow the laurel on him. Rather he was sent it by the Swedish countess Juliane Löwenhaupt (born at Wismar in 1701, died not before 1767), who is also represented with two poems (one of them to Richey) in WEICHMANN’s Poesie der NiederSachsen, II. Theil. Details of this are to be found in the entry for Richey in GABRIEL WILHELM GÖTTEN, Das jetztlebende gelehrte Europa […], Braunschweig, 1735, pp. 123–36, here p. 130: ‘Als er das vortrefliche Gedicht auf die Wiederkunft Carls des XII. verfertigt hatte, ward er von der Fr. Gräfin von Löwenhaupt mit verschiedenen vor einen Poeten wohl ausgesuchten Geschenken, als mit einem Lorbeer-Cranz, einer silbernen Schreib-Feder, einem geschnittenen Pocal, und mit Palmen-Sect beehret.’

Appendix B: Spurious Poets Laureate

These gifts are also referred to in Richey’s Deutsche Gedichte, ed. GOTTSCHÜTZE, III. Th., Hamburg, 1766: ‘Auf einen von hoher Hand erhaltenen Lorbeerkranz. 1714’ (p. 53); ‘Auf die zu gleicher Zeit erhaltene silberne Schreibfeder. 1714’ (p. 54); ‘Auf den zu gleicher Zeit erhaltenen geschnittenen Pocal. 1714’ (p. 55); ‘Auf den zu gleicher Zeit erhaltenen Palmen-Sect. 1714’ (pp. 56–57); ‘An die Gräfinn von Löwenhaupt. Beantwortung eines dem Dichter beygelegten Lobspruchs. 1714’ (p. 57). (I am grateful to Dr Jürgen Rathje, Hamburg, for communicating these details.) VON WALDBERG (ADB, XXVIII: 439) cites lines by Georg Luis (1714–1792) in praise of Richey:

FRIED

Durch aufgeklärten Witz, durch scharfe Urtheilskraft, Durch viel Belesenheit, durch tiefe Wissenschaft, Durch weisen Unterricht, hat Richey längst verdienet, Daß ihm zum ewigen Ruhm ein steter Lorbeer grünet.

Whether the sentiment expressed in the last line may be seen as alluding to his laureation is unclear; the words could be interpreted as showing no actual awareness of Richey’s having received the laurel and expressing an opinion that he deserved it. Richey’s most important work was his Idioticon Hamburgense, which appears in two editions. He was very prolific as a poet, producing much occasional verse for weddings and funerals, epigrams, riddles, and many Singgedichte, some of which were set to music by Johann Mattheson. Barthold Heinrich Brockes, the fourth volume of whose Irdisches Vergnügen in Gott Richey edited, had a high opinion of his verse. He also translated from Latin, French, Dutch and English. In 1715 he founded the Deutschübende Gesellschaft in Hamburg, which developed into the Patriotische Gesellschaft.

According to LEONARD FORSTER, Selections from Conrad Celtis, 1459– 1508, Cambridge, 1948, pp. 98–9, Johannes Riedner, styled orator et poeta, was the first full-time lecturer in literature at the University of Ingolstadt. ‘He appears to have been an elderly man of weak health and no special attainments’ (loc. cit.). Riedner was still there when Celtis arrived and his continued presence there was an obstacle to any long-term appointment for Celtis, though a rumour soon reached him that Riedner – vetulus ille poeta (‘that old hack’) – was soon to retire. Though this proved not to be the case, Celtis was able to obtain a temporary appointment, beginning in May 1492.

JOHANNES BAPTISTA SCYTHA GIOVANNI BATTISTA SCITA fl. 1483/99 From Feltre. Professor of Grammar and Rhetoric. In 1483 he was a guest of Johannes Franciscus Picus in Mirandola, and he was a friend of Aldus Manutius the Elder and of Leonardus Crassus. Although styled Poeta laureatus, how he came by this title remains a mystery. There is no specific evidence indicating his laureation by a Pope, and while it cannot be ruled out that he may have been laureated by Emperor Frederick III during his travels in Italy, it is just as likely that the title derived from neither of these authorities. Works BSB-Ink C-471 records a poem by him addressed to Leonardus Crassus in Hypnerotomachia Poliphili, Venice: A. Manutius, 1499 (GW 7223, ISTC ic00767000).

APPENDIX C: THE LAUREATION OF WOMEN POETS The first woman for whom laureation was even considered appears to have been Olimpia Fulvia Morata (see Appendix B: Spurious Poets laureate, Sp–22a). Nothing came of the supposed plan, however. The following is a chronological list of women who were definitely (or, in the case of Elisabeth von Senitz and Anna Louisa Karsch, at least possibly) laureated: ELIZABETH JANE WESTON (Westonia) (1582–1612), laureated 1601 at Prague, on the initiative of Paul Schede Melissus. For details see W–36. Note: According to CHRISTIAN FRANZ PAULLINI (see Handbook, P-16), Sigmund von Birken was influenced by Paul Schede Melissus when he started laureating women members of the Pegnesischer Blumenorden. PAULLINI writes (Philosophische Lust-Stunden [...], Frankfurt and Leipzig 1706, pp. 51f.): Nun wollen wir erwegen die Doctorliche Würden und unterschiedne EhrenGraden/ als die Frantzösische Dame de Houliere kriegte von der Parisischen Academie Anno 1687. eben an S. Ludwigs Tag den Poetischen Lorbeer-Krantz mit höchstem Ruhm/ welche Ehre vor ihr Elisabeth Joanna Westonien wiederfuhr/ so der berühmte Melissus krönte/ dem hierin der wohlbekandte Herr von Birken rühmlich nachgefolgt/ und viele im gekrönten Pegnesischen BlumOrden befindliche Gesellschaffterinnen/ als Sylviam/ Erone/ Magdalis/ Dorilis/ Mornille/ Dafne/ u.a.m. mit gleich Donnerfreyem Laub/ ihrer schönen Wissenschafft/ und saubern Poesie wegen/ beschenckt hat. The truth of this is confirmed by Birken himself in a draft letter of 30 March 1670: Dorilis, Silvia, Magdalis, Dafne, non fictae sed verae sunt Poetriae, Sodalitij nostri Pierides, seculi lumina sive sidera, alle treffliche Geister. Also pranget unser Franken zugleich mit ihnen, da Olympia [Morata], Johanna Westonia und andere zu ihren Zeiten die einigen gewesen (BIRKEN, Werke und Korrespondenz, 2009, pt 2, p. 79). However, whereas Birken meticulously recorded all his laureations of men in his capacity of Count Palatine, he does not seem to have made a list of the women he laureated. And whereas numerous drafts of laureation diplomas for men found their way into the Birken archive, there are none for women. The editors of Floridans Amaranten-Garte mention (pt 2, p. 724) a hand-written list of Birken’s with the names of all the women he admitted to the PBO. Interestingly on 29 July 1672 Christian Franz Paullini, who had just been admitted to the order himself, wrote to Birken saying, ‘Rühmlich ists, daß mein hochEdler Herr solche wolspielende Tichterinnen mit dem LorbeerKrantz beschenket. Möchte wol wißen, wie Ers mache, ob es nur geschehe mit übersendung des krantzes, oder aber auch mit einem (ihnen anständigen) diplomate, bitte üm Nachricht.’ (pt. 2, pp. 724f.).

It should be added that, as far as we can tell today, KARL F. OTTO’s claim, in: Die Frauen der Sprachgesellschaften, in: AUGUST BUCK et al., Europäische Hofkultur im 16. und 17. Jahrhundert, (Wolfenbütteler Arbeiten zur Barockforschung, 10), Hamburg, 1981, pp. 497–503, here p.. 499: ‘Es liegt nahe, anzunehmen, daß alle 19 [weiblichen Mitglieder (up to 1705)] auch gekrönte Dichterinnen waren; in den meisten Fällen wurden sie wohl von Birken gekrönt’ is an exaggeration.

Note: Christiane Mariane von Ziegler was the first woman laureated by a university. It seems that her laureation provided, directly or indirectly, the impetus for further laureations of women by universities: Göttingen laureated six, Helmstedt three, Wittenberg two, and Kiel and Altdorf one each. It is worth noting that already in the ‘Vorbericht’ to her Versuch in gebundener Schreib-Art (1728) Ziegler shows awareness of the history of laureation and particularly of the honouring of women with the laurel. She writes: Es haben [...] längst viel alte u. neue Poeten den wohl verdienten Ruhm davon getragen, daß sie zur Verbesserung der Sitten-Lehre den stärcksten Anlaß

For details see Appendix B: Spurious Poets laureate, Sp–13a. For the sake of completeness, it may be noted that in England (on Poets Laureate in England see Handbook, IV, 2380–2382) the first woman laureate in modern times has been Carol Ann Duffy. Born on 23 December 1955 at Glasgow, and Professor of Poetry at Manchester Metropolitan University, Duffy succeeded Andrew Motion as official Poet Laureate in May 2009, for a period of ten years.32 In the New Year Honours 2015 (announced in December 2014) she was appointed DBE (Dame Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire). She planned to donate her annual stipend to the Poetry Society to establish a prize. In addition to this annual honorarium of £5,750 from the Government (with extra for visiting schools), the Poet Laureate also receives a butt of canary wine (a cask of sherry), a gift from the people of Spain. The Oxford Professor of Poetry receives a stipend of £6,901, plus the odd £40 for giving a lecture. It is worth noting that, among possible successors to Andrew Motion in 2009 the names of two other women poets, Wendy Cope and Pam Ayres, were mentioned. However, Cope was deemed to rule herself out by declaring that ‘good poetry cannot be written to order’ and saying that the post should be abolished. As for Ayres, a proposal that Motion’s successor should be chosen by popular ballot was said to have been ruled out on the grounds that Ayres enjoyed such a widespread reputation as a writer of light verse, not to say doggerel, that she was bound to win. __________________
