Life

Christian Gottlieb Eisenstuck was born the son of Christian Jacob Eisenstuck (1734-1810) and brother of Johann Christian Eisenstuck (1757-1831), both of whom were also members of the Saxon state parliament. He studied law at the University of Leipzig until 1793 . Eisenstuck first settled in Göttingen in 1794 and then worked as a legal adviser in Dresden from 1798 . In 1815 he was involved in a commission in the drafting of a uniform Saxon penal code , which, however, did not come into force until March 30, 1838 under the title Criminal Code for the Kingdom of Saxony . As a result, he was a member of a committee for the settlement of war debts in 1817. In 1820 he was appointed senior tax procurator .

Due to his commitment to state reform as a result of the July Revolution in 1830 , he was delegated as an envoy of the city of Dresden to the deliberations of the Saxon estates on the Saxon constitution , which was finally published in September 1831 and enacted by the king. From 1832 to 1837 Eisenstuck was head of the municipal representatives (a forerunner of the city council assembly) of Dresden and as such was involved in the establishment of the Dresden Societäts-Brauerei zum Waldschlößchen . From 1833 to 1847, Christian Gottlieb Eisenstuck was a representative of a Dresden constituency in the Second Chamber of the Saxon State Parliament , where he also temporarily held the office of Vice President.

His contemporary Bernhard Hirschel counted him in the emerging political camps between the conservative and liberal forces. He wrote about him in 1846, among other things: “ The venerable, curly white head, not unlike a Jupiter's head or Thorvaldsen , the blinking, squinted eyes, the smiling expression on the lips, the dreamy, creeping gait and the good-natured, popular joviality of the whole being were also in the That was a lovable personality, whose weaknesses were all the more likely to be overlooked as they only seemed momentary and even gave way, if only rarely, to expressions of strength of a noble kind, to national-political enthusiasm. Now, now that Eisenstuck has come completely closer to the government, after he has done nothing at all as a speaker through the 'popular Saxon verbosity', repetitions, colorful confusion, chopped up and mixed up periods with eternal interjections, inserted phrases and jokes, the seriousness Ridiculous, making the ridiculous seriously, now that he revokes what he wrote down in the deputation (as he expressed himself in the opposite sense in the medical reform when he voted) - now it says: Iron stucco has gotten old. Doesn't that mean luck? Do you think, because he sometimes sleeps in the meetings, as President always has to be reminded, instead of tugging at the curtain at the bell, - the spiritual man sleeps like the physical? Oh no! this lion is not sleeping! "

After retiring into private life in 1847, Eisenstuck died on May 31, 1853, four months before his 80th birthday, in Dresden.
