Corps Misnia Leipzig

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Landsmannschaftliche canton division in the Kingdom of Saxony (1814)

Misnia was the name of four different corps at the University of Leipzig , which were founded in 1802, 1822, 1834 and 1942. The name stands for the city of Meißen and the former margraviate of Meißen .

Misnia I and II

The first corporation , called Misnia, was founded in Leipzig at Easter 1802 by students from the Kingdom of Saxony ; it had the colors blue-red-white without percussion and was suspended at the end of 1810. It was probably related to Montania I.

The second Misnia was donated on April 3, 1822 in Leipzig; it was in the colors green-red-gold with gold percussion and a green student cap . She was suspended on July 27, 1824.

The third Misnia was donated by Julius Schuster and five resigned Renoncen of Saxonia Leipzig on November 8th, 1837 with the consent of the Senior Citizens' Convention in Leipzig . It was colored green-white-red with silver percussion. The motto was Hosti frontem, pectus amico! On June 26, 1847, she in turn donated Guestphalia Leipzig and Thuringia III as auxiliary corps. Misnia participated on July 15, 1848 in the Jenenser Seniors Convents deputy assembly . In 1853 she took on the members of the suspended Thuringia III. With the Leipzig Corps Lusatia , Saxonia , Thuringia III and Guestphalia II , she formed the Senior Citizens' Convention in Leipzig, where she joined the Kösener SC Association on May 26, 1855 .

Suspensions

  • November 15, 1864 to the beginning of the summer semester 1865
  • Late June 1866 to December 13, 1867
  • January 31, 1874 to December 17, 1874
  • May 4, 1875 to October 29, 1876
  • October 31, 1882 to October 17, 1887

The corps finally suspended on July 6th, 1893, when the corps boys had misappropriated the money collected by the old men for their debt relief (probably 20,000 gold marks ) - for the “famous” morning pint in Venice . The senior is said to have shot himself afterwards. According to another version, the suspension was caused by a corps boys' convention held in Monte Carlo . The old Meissner celebrated the 75-year-old foundation festival in 1912, but even then ruled out a reconstitution of the active corps. With Ernst Ziehm died in 1962 the last member of Misnia III.

"... as the history of Misnia also teaches that with the help of the green circle a corps in Leipzig alone cannot sustain itself permanently."

- Georg Heine

Conditions

With the Corps Bremensia and - depending on the source - the Corps Franconia Jena or the Corps Guestphalia Heidelberg , Misnia III founded the green circle .
