from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Adolf Timotheus Wislicenus (born October 5, 1806 in Battaune , Saxony , † August 1, 1883 in Blasewitz , Saxony) was a German Protestant clergyman.

Wislicenus, a son of the pastor Gottlob Timothy Wislicenus was during the study of Protestant theology , which he completed in Leipzig, Heidelberg and Halle, 1829 a member of the old Halle fraternity Germania . After the exams he became a pastor in Bedra near Merseburg in the Prussian province of Saxony in 1833 . Like his brother Gustav Adolf Wislicenus , he supported the rationalist and liberal opposition movement of the Friends of Light . When in 1846 his election as pastor at the Martinikirche in Halberstadt was rejected by the Magdeburg Consistory because he had published a pamphlet in support of his brother, he left the Protestant regional church in Prussia in 1847 and founded a free religious community in Halberstadt, which he looked after until 1854. From here he also pastored Quedlinburg . At the end of 1848 he was sentenced to 14 months imprisonment for political reasons and did not return to his community until Easter 1850. In 1859 he became (as his brother's successor) preacher at the Free Religious Congregation in Halle, and in 1861 in Berlin . He spent his retirement from 1868 in Blasewitz.

One of his sons was the astronomer Walter Wislicenus .
