Life

Adam Heinrich Lackmann was the son of Pastor Peter Lackmann . He attended the scholars' schools in Plön and Hamburg . He then studied theology from 1712 at the University of Gießen and from 1714 to 1716 at the University of Kiel . The application with a trial sermon at the Johanneskirche in Giekau was unsuccessful for him, so that he pursued a scientific career. After a short stay in Hamburg he was appointed rector of the school of scholars in Eutin in 1721 and also had to teach Latin and history to the future King of Sweden, Adolf Friedrich . In 1727 he moved to the service of Christian zu Rantzau at Gut Rastorf as court master to train his only son. In 1730 he accompanied Detlef von Reventlow from Altenhof to Kiel University. He now preferred to deal with the history of Schleswig-Holstein . In 1730 he published the first volume of his introduction to Schleswig-Holstein's history , the seventh volume of which was published 23 years later shortly before his death. Also in 1730 he published a collection of contemporary religious poems under the title Spiritual Poems, to awaken sacred emotions , among which were his father's own poems and works. In 1733 he became an associate professor and in 1736 a full professor of history at Kiel University. He belonged to the consistory as an assessor and from 1740 to the senior consistory . His academic legacy went to the Kiel University Library .
