Christoph von Dürfeld

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Christoph von Dürfeld also: Durfeldius, Dorfeldius (* around 1525 in Gotha ; † May 23, 1583 in Speyer ) was a German legal scholar.

Life

Christoph was the son of Friedrich von Dürfeld and Margarethe von Binsfeld (Biedenfeld). From 1533 to 1543 he attended the grammar school founded by the reformer Friedrich Myconius in the Augustinian monastery in his hometown. On April 30, 1543 he enrolled at the University of Wittenberg , where he acquired the academic degree of Master of Philosophy on September 30, 1546. From 1546 he was a teacher at the grammar school in Gotha and then a teacher at the grammar school in Eisenach . Since he had suffered losses during the Narrow Kaldic War , he took on a private tutor in Remda , where he taught the young Count Johann von Gleichen IV († March 28, 1567 in Remda). With this he moved to the high school in Jena in the summer semester of 1549 , where he also participated in the reading business and was accepted into the teaching staff of the school on February 2, 1554.

Thereupon he became professor of philosophy in the summer semester 1558, in which capacity he was dean of the philosophical faculty in the winter semester 1559. He then held a vacancy professorship in Jena. In 1560 he got into a theological dispute, whereupon he was excommunicated from the Lord's Supper, but this was prevented by the intervention of the Saxon princes. In 1561 he moved to the law faculty, where he obtained his licentiate in law in the same year and became a full professor of law. Thereupon he received his doctorate on February 11, 1562, was appointed court judge in Jena and in July 1563 court counselor of Sachsen-Weimar . He represented the Saxon dynasty on several imperial affairs and was rector of the Jena Salana in the winter semester of 1563 . On November 9, 1569, he received a position as a lawyer in Halle (Saale) and in 1580 he became an assessor at the Imperial Court of Justice in Speyer.
