from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Carl August Buchholz , complete: Carl August Friedrich Buchholz (born October 3, 1785 in Lübeck ; † November 15, 1843 ibid) was a German lawyer, diplomat from the Electorate of Hesse, and syndic of the Hanseatic city of Lübeck .

Life

Buchholz was the son of the syndic of the Lübeck cathedral chapter Georg Friedrich Buchholz (1750–1805). He studied law, first at the University of Göttingen , then from October 1805 at the University of Heidelberg , and was in 1807 at the University of Halle Dr. doctorate in law. One of his friends in Heidelberg was Georg Kloß , who noted a pistol duel against the senior of the Suevia Raphael von Weinzierl team in his Schmollis book for Buchholz .

During his student days he worked as a writer and wrote a range of travel literature, novels and plays.

In 1808 he was admitted to the bar in Lübeck. From Lübeck he practiced an international practice for which he was particularly qualified by his own negotiating skills. In 1810 he took over the negotiations conducted in Paris about the bankruptcy claims from the bankruptcy of the former mayor of Lübeck, Mattheus Rodde, from loans given to the French state, and achieved a favorable settlement. When he returned to Lübeck, Lübeck was already incorporated into the French Empire , so that he could apply the experience he had gained in Paris for further professional use. His opposition to these political conditions led to the imposition of a prison sentence against him in 1813, but was given amnesty a little later. He considered moving to Riga , but returned to Lübeck in 1813 from Rügen , where he had found safety. At the Congress of Vienna (1814-1815) and the Congress of Aachen (1818) he represented the interests of numerous Jewish communities in Germany in the interest of improving their living conditions. He is considered to be an important advocate for Jewish emancipation . In the period from 1823 to 1834 he represented the interests of the Electorate of Hesse in numerous German federal states and in other European countries and received numerous state medals and awards. In 1834 he was elected Syndicus in his hometown and from then on worked as a judge in the Lübeck Higher Court. He lived in the house at Mengstrasse 2 and the summer house at Eschenburgstrasse 39, built for him by the Hamburg architect Alexis de Chateauneuf in 1837.

His first marriage was Catharina Eleonora Luise Tesdorpf († 1846), daughter of the wine merchant Peter Hinrich Tesdorpf (1745-1811) in Bordeaux, later Lübeck. His second marriage was to Fanny Pauli , daughter of Franz Heinrich Pauli . His daughter from his first marriage married the judge of higher appeal Georg Friedrich Ludwig Oppenheimer .
