Life

No information is available about Wieling's ancestry and family relationships during his childhood. It is certain that he attended the academic high school in Hamm in 1710, where Wilhelm Neuhaus and Friedrich Georg Ernst Montanus prepared him for a theological course. After he had defended two papers there, he enrolled on September 2, 1713 at the University of Duisburg , where Bernard Heinrich Reinhold (1677-1726) and Everhadus Otto were his teachers. In 1718 he continued his studies at the University of Marburg , where Johann Friedrich Homberg (1673–1748) was his formative teacher.

After completing his studies at German universities, he became a professor at the grammar school in Gouda in 1721, and in the same year he received the honoris causa degree of doctor of law from the law faculty of the University of Rinteln . In 1722 he moved to the grammar school in Amsterdam as prorector . On September 4, 1727, the curators of the University of Franeker offered him the professorship of Roman civil law as successor to Johann Gottlieb Heineccius , which he took up on March 3, 1728 with the speech de natura una omnis juris ac virtutis norma (Franeker 1728). After he became rector of the Franeker Hochschule in 1736/37 and had rejected several appointments to German universities, he switched to the professorship of constitutional law in Franeker on March 13, 1738.

On May 4, 1739, the curators of the University of Utrecht appointed him professor of civil and feudal law , which he took up on September 14, 1739 with the speech Pro glossatoribus . After he had also participated in the organizational tasks of the Utrecht University as rector of the Alma Mater in 1740/41 , he switched to a professorship in public and Roman law on July 22, 1743, which he held on October 21, 1743 with the speech De iustitia sanctionis pragmaticae divi Caroli VI. imp. aug. oratio altera . In that office he worked until the end of his life.

Wieling had made a name for himself primarily as the author of numerous legal manuals and through legal treatises.
