Christian Renatus Braun (born June 12, 1714 in Elbing ; † February 14, 1782 in Königsberg (Prussia) ) was a German lawyer.

Life

Braun was enrolled at the University of Königsberg on October 5, 1730 . After studying law, he became court judge and chamber attorney in Königsberg in 1735. In 1735 he received his doctorate in law and in 1736 became associate professor and in 1737 adjunct of the law faculty at the Königsberg University. In 1755 he was appointed royal Prussian criminal inspector and in 1764 rose to fourth full professor. In 1771 he became the third full professor.

In 1779 he took over the second full professorship, in 1780 he resigned from the criminal council and took over the task of court lawyer. In his capacity as a Königsberg university lecturer, he took over the rectorate of the Alma Mater in the summer semester of 1781 and became its prorector in the winter semester of the same year. The epidemics that were rampant in Königsberg at that time put an end to his life and Immanuel Kant dedicated a thought verse to him about death.
