Ernst Daniel August Bartels (born December 26, 1778 in Braunschweig , † June 4, 1838 in Berlin ) was a German medic .

Life

The eldest son of the theologian and vice-president of the consortium August Christian Bartels first visited the Katharineum and, from 1796, the Collegium Carolinum and the Anatomical-Surgical Institute in Braunschweig before he studied medicine in Jena and received his doctorate there in 1801. In 1802 he was established as a doctor in Braunschweig. In 1803 he completed his habilitation in Helmstedt , where he became an associate professor for anatomy and physiology and head of the anatomical institute. In 1805 he became professor of medicine and obstetrics in Erlangen and director of the maternity hospital. According to information in the Braunschweig Biographical Lexicon , he stayed at the University of Helmstedt until it was dissolved and in 1810 moved to the University of Marburg as a full professor , where he also became director of the anatomical theater .

From 1811/1812 Bartels was professor of physiology and director of the medical clinic in Breslau . In 1816/17 he was rector of the University of Breslau. In 1821 he returned to Marburg as a professor of pathology and therapy, where he became director of the medical-clinical institute and hospital. There he gave lectures on anatomy, anthropology , osteology , pathology, physiology, syndesmology , therapy and general biology as well as on Celsus and Hippocrates of Kos . From 1824 he was also Vice Rector .

In 1828 he became director of the university clinic in Berlin and a member of the scientific deputation for the medical sector. He was also a secret medical advisor .

Bartels was influenced by natural philosophical currents that were reflected in his writings. He was more of a scholar than a general practitioner, which made his position at the University Hospital in Berlin difficult. For example, he published books on animal magnetism, which was much discussed at the time, and in 1806 a defense of phrenology by Franz Joseph Gall .
