Kaspar Stemper

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kaspar Stemper , Latin Casparus Stemperus (* around 1555 / 57 in Kreuznach , † 1608 / 09 in Speyer or Regensburg ) was a German lawyer who as a lawyer at the Imperial Court , as Council consultant and General Counsel of the City of Regensburg and the palatine-neuburgischer worked advice.

Life

Signature "Caspar Stemper Doctor", regensburg entry in 1602

Kaspar Stemper was born in Kreuznach in the Vorderen Grafschaft Sponheim , which as a condominium belonged to the Electoral Palatinate and the Margraviate of Baden-Baden from 1559 . The family name Stemper is documented in the Oberamt Kreuznach in the 15th and 16th centuries, for example in Bosenheim , Pleitersheim or Volxheim .

education

After attending the Reformed Gymnasium Kreuznach , which was opened in 1567, Stemper was a student of Christoph Hilsbach (1516–1576) as a convictor (table-goer) or external at the state school for Pfalz-Zweibrücken in Hornbach from around 1571/72 to 1575/76 . For four years, the school took in gifted boys who were at least 15 years old, had attended a Latin school elsewhere and did not necessarily have to come from their own duchy.

In 1576 "Casparus Stemperus Crucenacensis" registered at the University of Marburg . In 1577 Stemper wrote a book Stauronesus Vangionum illustrata about his hometown Kreuznach. In 1577 he dedicated an Elegia to the late rector Christoph Hilsbach of the Hornbach State School as his preceptor (teacher) , which was printed together with a text by Jeremias Homberger . Homberger probably got to know Hilsbach when he himself was a brief teacher in the Palatinate. His son "Ionas Homberger Bipontinus " (* around 1555/56; † 1587), who matriculated in Marburg on the same day as Stemper and worked on his book about Kreuznach, was born in Zweibrücken and accepted into the Hornbach state school in 1571 as a scholarship holder. In 1578 and 1580, Stemper took part with Neo-Latin dedicatory poems in two legal publications by Abraham Saur (1545–1593) from Frankenberg , who had worked as a lawyer and procurator at the Hessian Samthof Court in Marburg since 1575 . His brother Magister Alexander Saur (Saurius) (* around 1549, † after 1582), who contributed to the publication in 1580, had become rector of the Reformed Gymnasium Kreuznach from 1578 to 1582. Severin Saur († 1585/87), who came from Bacharach , was a Truchsess in Kreuznach from 1573 to 1585.

In 1580 "Gasparus Stemper Crucinacensis" enrolled at the University of Basel . There he published a Carmen eulogeticum (blessing poem ) in 1581 in honor of Johannes Winckelmann , who received his doctorate in theology in Basel that year . Winckelmann had held the majorate at the Hessian Scholarship Institute when Stemper was studying in Marburg . In 1582, Kaspar Stempel paid tribute to the real dictionary Lexicon iuridicum by the lawyer Simon Schard († 1573), published posthumously in Basel by Samuel Grynaeus (1539–1599), with introductory poems.

Steward in Schallodenbach and doctorate in Basel

After completing his studies, Kaspar Stemper was steward of the noble families Sickingen and Hattstein in Schallodenbach . In 1586 he acquired his doctorate in both rights in Basel with a disputation under Samuel Grynaeus on questions of inheritance law. At the same time, Matthäus Heininger from Dinkelsbühl and Johannes Althusius received their doctorates. Stemper dedicated the printing of his dissertation theses to his students Johann Gottfried von Sickingen- Schallodenbach († 1622) and Marquard von Hattstein- Kirrweiler († 1609), a nephew of the Speyer bishop Marquard von Hattstein, who died in 1581 .

Attorney at the Imperial Court of Justice in Speyer and counselor in Regensburg

Kaspar Stemper became an attorney at the Imperial Court of Justice in Speyer on September 25, 1587, and later at the same time council counsel in Regensburg. As a syndic, he represented the Free Imperial City of Regensburg at the Regensburg Diets in 1594, 1597/98 and 1603. In 1603 he was also an envoy from the cities of Speyer and Mühlhausen and the barons Hans Wolf († 1642) and Hans Wilhelm von Alt- und Neu-Fraunhofen . The 1608 Reichstag, in which Stemper perhaps also took part, broke up without a formal farewell ; therefore no subscription list was created in which the participants would have been listed.

In 1601 and 1608 Stemper also referred to himself as a Palatinate (Palatinate-Neuburgian) counselor or lawyer. He only stayed temporarily in Regensburg.

Commissioner of the Reich Chamber of Commerce in Leups and Speyer

In a border dispute in the Upper Palatinate between the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Bayreuth and the Electoral Palatinate surrounding Hammergut Oberleups , with which Hans Wilhelm Groß von Trockau was enfeoffed , the Regensburg Syndic Stemper was appointed imperial commissioner at the end of the 1580s , who heard witnesses on site. Bayreuth prevails in the conflict. In 1591, as the imperial commissioner, Stemper interrogated the former mayors Peter Reinhardt, Christmann Petsch and other people in a dispute between the city of Speyer and the Electoral Palatinate about the right to hunt within the Landwehr in the Speyer district.

Expert in the last Regensburg witch trial

In 1595 the lawyers Johann Diemer (Diemmair) (1538-1613), Beningus Pühlmeier (Püchelmeyer; Piehelmair) d. Ä. († before 1602) and Kaspar Stemper as an expert at the last Regensburg witch trial against the so-called "mouse girl". Anna Püchelin (* around 1574; † after 1595), a Mennonite , ultimately escaped the death penalty, but was incarcerated in the digestion tower ( bridge tower ) on meager fare .

Conflict over the Landgraviate of Klettgau

In April 1598, following the Reichstag, the lawyer Kaspar Stemper was visited in Regensburg by some poor farmers (arme pauresleutle) from the Landgraviate of Klettgau (Kleckhaw) , who suffered from tax demands from their sovereign Rudolf IV. Von Sulz because of the " help from the Reichstürken ". Stemper recommended that they check with the tax authorities at the Reich Chamber of Commerce in Speyer whether the tax payments were passed on to the emperor. At a meeting during the Reichsdeputationstag in Speyer in the summer of 1600, the imperial high court master Landgrave Friedrich V von Fürstenberg-Heiligenberg (1563–1617), who was related by marriage to Rudolf IV von Sulz , accused Stemper of advising the farmers to pay imperial taxes deny. Kaspar Stemper could only be prevented with difficulty by his colleagues from suing the count. In April 1601 he defended himself against the accusation in a "letter of responsibility" to the city of Regensburg. He attached importance to the statement that he “did not want to have a few pennies or pennies of the poor people with whom I complain and whine a Christian sympathy”.

Neo-Latin occasional poems

In 1599 Stemper wrote a wedding poem for the commemorative publication for the imperial council and city treasurer Heimeran the Elder. Ä. Lerchenfelder († around 1623) and his wife Maria Haller. In 1600 Stemper dedicated a poem to the prince-bishop of Regensburg and Palatinate-Neuburg court and personal physician Johann (Hans) Oberndörfer (1549–1625) from Oberndorf, who practiced in Regensburg and was a representative of iatrochemistry . Kaspar Stemper was friends with the Regensburg doctor Martin Ruland , who also adhered to this Paracelsian direction, but fell out with Oberndörfer. In 1602, Stemper entered the register of Pastor Christoph Donauer (1564–1611).

Regensburg Religious Discussion

In the run-up to the Regensburg Religious Discussion , Kaspar Stemper informed the Palatinate-Neuburger Hof that it was hoped on the side of the Jesuits that Pope Clement VIII would forbid a public religious discourse; On the Catholic side, Jakob Gretser , Adam Tanner and the Freising Canon and Dechant in Munich Wolfgang Hannemann († 1607) are planned as participants. Count Philipp Ludwig and his son Wolfgang Wilhelm von Pfalz-Neuburg met on November 16th July. / November 26th  1601 greg. in Regensburg, the talks lasted until December 7th July. / December 17,  1601 greg. .

Imperial Commissioner in Weiden

In 1601 Kaspar Stemper and his Regensburg colleague Johann Diemer belonged to an imperial commission in Weiden in the Upper Palatinate to investigate allegations made by the married couple Hans and Katharina Widmann (Weißmann) and their heirs for unlawful torture in an investigation process for alleged adultery. The co-accused Hans Megas, who had been accused of other crimes, had asserted during his execution that "I and the widow were wronged about the accusation". A complaint from the haulage company Hans Widmann was rejected by the Palatinate government in Amberg . After he had been expelled from the Electoral Palatinate around 1580 and had found shelter in Wörth and Nuremberg , Widmann appealed to the Imperial Court of Justice around 1583, which, however, did not declare itself responsible until 1593. Although he, too, had been imprisoned and tortured for seven weeks in Amberg in the course of the affair in 1586/87, he only claimed the five-hour torture with a thumbscrew that his wife Katharina Widmann had suffered as a falsely suspect in 1573. She had caused permanent physical damage. The opinion of the speakers was not received, but in 1621 the claim for damages of the Weißmann heirs against the heirs of the former city judge Michael Ermweig (1523–1594) was upheld by the Reich Chamber of Commerce and they were awarded 1,500 guilders . In 1635 they agreed on a settlement, according to which 6372 guilders should be paid including the accrued legal costs.
