from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Borchard Plotze , also Plocze (* in Stralsund ; † 1452 in Rostock ) was a German Roman Catholic theologian, professor and rector of the University of Rostock .

Life

Plotze came from a Stralsund council family. In 1406 he received his Baccalaureus in arte et in jure at the University of Prague . When he emigrated from the University of Prague to Leipzig , he received his master's degree there . In 1420 he came to Rostock and was accepted into the artist faculty by the first dean Hermann von Hamme . In the summer of 1421 he was dean and in 1422 rector of the university. Here he also received his master's degree in jure canonico .

When the University of Rostock emigrated to Greifswald on the orders of the Council of Basel in March 1437 , Plotze was among the scholars who left. In Greifswald he received his doctorate in theology. In 1443 he returned with the university to Rostock, where he was rector for the second time in 1451. In addition to his Rostock professorship, he was a lecturer at the Hamburg Mariendom as the successor to Johannes Holt , who was also a professor in Rostock. When he died in 1452, he left the reading library an anthology Manipula Florum and two manuscripts by Heinrich Tocke ( Deus primus meorum et dominus me and Sicud (!) Deus patrem meorum ), with whom he seems to have been friends.
