Corps Hannovera Heidelberg

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Circle of the Hannovera Heidelberg

The Corps Hannovera Heidelberg was created in 1810 as a branch corps of the Corps Hannovera Göttingen in the course of the departure of the Göttingen student body as a result of the gendarme affair in 1809 . The colors of this corps were “red-blue” and identical to those of the Göttingen mother corps, as was the motto “ Nunquam retrorsum ”.

history

The Heidelberg SC Comment from 1810 first used the term corps

The members of the Hannovera Göttingen who moved from Göttingen to Heidelberg formed a table society at the Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg in October 1809, which was constituted as a corps in the spring of 1810 . This only existed briefly during the French period from 1810 to 1812 in the Heidelberg Seniors' Convent and expired in December 1812 when most of its members ended their studies or when they returned to the University of Göttingen. The exact date of the foundation of the Hannovera Heidelberg is not certain, but it can be seen from the registry entries that the Hanoverians were already involved in the assault on the Kommershaus der Westphalen on March 22nd, 1810 and played a role in the disputes of these days. An entry by the Heidelberg Hanoverian Theodor Werlhof in the Reinicke family book says “We pull with poles and stilts against the Westphalians and Rhinelander”, so the stick comment was valid . Hannovera was one of the five corps that signed the Heidelberg SC-Comment of June 1, 1810, in which the term "corps" was used for the first time. According to current (2014) student history research, it had 50 during its short existence Namely known members, most of whom were also members of the Göttingen Corps Hannovera before or afterwards. The Hanoverians strengthened themselves in Heidelberg, clearly recognizable from the list, by further North German students from the Duchy of Oldenburg and from the then Free Hanseatic City of Lübeck , but also gained members from the Grand Duchy of Baden .

In contrast to the other Heidelberg corps, the Hanoverians initially survived the persecution of the Heidelberg Corps in June 1810, ordered by the Heidelberg Vice Rector Jacob Fidelis Ackermann , because they knew how to come to terms with the Government Director Manger from Karlsruhe, who was commissioned with the investigations. They retired to the Odenwald for a Whitsun trip. As a result, however, there were again riots and clashes with the vandals, which in September 1810 also led to the relegation of some Hanoverians. Under the liberal Göttingen Vice Rector Thomas Christian Tychsen , the life of the compatriots in Göttingen slowly revived in the winter semester of 1810/11 and a number of Hanoverians then returned to Göttingen, while others as lawyers had to complete their compulsory semesters at the University of Dijon to gain knowledge of the To be able to take the Civil Code, which had become significant during the French era , to their northern German hometowns. This caused a slump in the number of members and the minimum number of twelve members required by the Heidelberg SC Comment could not be maintained permanently, so that the corps probably suspended shortly before Christmas 1812. After the end of the wars of liberation , students from the Kingdom of Hanover preferred to join the Corps Guestphalia Heidelberg , which was influenced by northern Germany .

Lifelong friendships between the members of this corps and their families are documented in diaries and biographies in Heidelberg (and also during their time together at the University of Dijon). Alexander von Dusch and Karl Ludwig Roeck also became members of the Harmonischen Verein, a circle around the composer Carl Maria von Weber , to which other Heidelberg Hanoverians, as evidenced by Weber's diary, also maintained relationships. Carl Maria von Weber's diary notes first confirm the above-mentioned incidents in Heidelberg on March 24, 1810. On October 9, 1810, von Weber wrote down a letter to Johann Gänsbacher

"Our beautiful Heidelberg circle has been completely destroyed, most of them torn away and conciliated , Schleifer , Lowzow, the two Starkloffs, including Schreyer and a few whose names I can't remember, have left Heidelberg."

and thus documents the relegation and departure of a large part of the members of the corps from Heidelberg who leaned towards him after the incidents of September 1810 as a loss.

Member list

A complete list of members of the Corps Hannovera Heidelberg has not been handed down in writing, but a reconstruction by student historians of the 20th century. The Kösener Corps lists , which in 1910 name eight members for the period from May 14, 1810 to 1811, give first indications of members of a Hannovera in Heidelberg . While the first names were obtained from entries in student studbooks and the Heidelberg SC-Comment , the “ Pressa ” exhibition in Cologne in 1928 contained the porcelain pipe head of a tobacco pipe with the club coat of arms of the Hannovera Heidelberg and a member list with 31 names from 1810/11 on the back side. This list of names confirms the members of this period and offered the necessary research approaches to further supplement the list of members by evaluating family records, university files and other documents.
