Karl Bardt

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Andreas Georg Wilhelm Karl Bardt (also Carl Bardt , born November 30, 1843 in Lubosch , Province of Posen ; † July 17, 1915 in Charlottenburg ) was a German educator and classical philologist .

Life

Bardt was the youngest son of the Hamburg merchant Carl Bardt (1790–1868) and his second wife Ida Neumann, a teacher at a secondary school for girls. He grew up on his father's manor in Lubosch , Birnbaum district , in the province of Posen. At the age of eleven he came to Breslau , where he received a humanistic education at the Maria Magdalenen Gymnasium . After graduating from high school in autumn 1862 (together with the later pathologist Carl Weigert ) he began studying at the Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität zu Berlin under Theodor Mommsen , Moriz Haupt and Johann Gustav Droysen . He dedicated his disputation theses Quaestiones Tullianae in 1866 to Mommsen.

From 1867, after passing the senior teacher examination, he worked at the Royal Wilhelms-Gymnasium in Berlin. In 1870, when he was registered for military service, he was rejected as unfit. In 1872 he visited Rome, where he met his future wife Luise Aldenhoven († 1900), a sister of the art historian Carl Aldenhoven . The marriage remained childless, but Bardt adopted an orphaned boy in 1892. First, however, he was appointed director to Neuwied in 1877 in order to expand the school there into a full high school. In 1881 Bardt went to Elberfeld as a grammar school director , in 1887 he was finally appointed director of the traditional Joachimsthal grammar school in Berlin, which he headed for 22 years. As a classical philologist, Carl Bardt was also active scientifically; he achieved particular importance as a translator of Latin comedies and satires. Above all, however, he was a good teacher and a successful school principal. In 1907 he was appointed a secret councilor, and in 1909 he retired. On his 70th birthday, around 280 friends, colleagues and former students set up the Bardt Foundation , the proceeds of which were to be used to provide high school graduates from the Joachimsthal High School with books for studying philology and history.

Karl Bardt died in Charlottenburg in 1915 at the age of 71 and was buried in the Old St. Matthew Cemetery in Schöneberg . The grave has not been preserved.
