from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Christian Friedrich Bartholdi , von Bartholdi since 1699 , baron since 1703 , (born December 10, 1668 Berlin ; † August 28, 1714 ibid.) Was a Brandenburg-Prussian diplomat and legal scholar.

Life

family

Christian Friedrich Bartholdi came from a middle-class family. His parents were the secret court and chamber councilor as well as the mayor of Cölln Christian Friedrich Bartholdi (1644–1707) and Anna Margarete, née Cost. One brother was the Prussian Real Secret Council and District President of Halberstadt Friedrich Heinrich von Bartholdi , Baron von Mikrander (1677-1730). Christian Friedrich von Bartholdi married Sophia von Butt in 1704, a daughter of the Prussian council and real secret war secretary Folchard von Butt. His marriage, like that of his aforementioned brother, had been childless.

Career

Bartholdi entered the legal career in 1690 and became a member of the chamber judge. From 1698 he held the post of resident at the Imperial Court in Vienna , where he was responsible for the negotiations for the acceptance of the royal dignity of Frederick III until 1703 . from Brandenburg was concerned. Already on February 20, 1699 he received the nobility in Vienna , which was recognized in Brandenburg on January 1, 1700. The elevation to the Reichsfreiherrnstand took place on December 15, 1703 and was closely linked to his brother named above. On May 24, 1705, Bartholdi became Real Privy Councilor, 1706 President of the newly established Berlin Higher Appeal Court , the Collegium Medicinum, and General Director of all French colonies and the poor.

Bartholdi, meanwhile Prussian secret minister of state, was also charged with improving the judiciary and in 1711 submitted a number of reform proposals, the implementation of which, however, was prevented by the minister Heinrich Rüdiger von Ilgen (1654–1728). It was not until June 1713, after Friedrich Wilhelm I took office, that the necessary reforms could result in implementation. It was also Bartholdi who had Samuel von Cocceji (1679–1755) appointed as a member of the Higher Appeal Court.
