In August 1649 the brothers defended theses on the Epitoma historiarum philippicarum Pompeii Trogi by Marcus Iunianus Iustinus in disputations under Jakob Schaller . Middle Latin or German congratulatory poems on the two disputation papers were written by Paul Christoph Forstner von Dambenois from Montbéliard , Johann Jakob Reussner (1629–1686) from Lichtenau ( Liechtenoâ-Hanoicus ), Magister Abraham Fischer (1628–1681) from Strasbourg, Johann Heinrich Copp (* 1625/30; † before 1683) from Strasbourg, Johannes Friedrich Krauth (1628–1678) from Strasbourg, the professor of theology and eloquence Robert Koenigsmann the Elder.
