from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ernst Hautsch (born June 18, 1883 in Holzminden ; † November 10, 1959 in Göttingen ) was a German classical philologist and high school teacher.

Ernst Hautsch, the son of the machine engineer and teacher Prof. Friedrich Hautsch, attended the Holzminden grammar school , where he passed the school leaving examination on February 22, 1902. He then studied Classical Philology and Protestant Theology at the University of Göttingen . He developed a particular interest in the text history of the Old and New Testaments . On February 5, 1908, with a dissertation on Origen's Gospel text completed the previous year, he was awarded Dr. phil. PhD . On June 19, 1908, he passed the teaching examinations in Greek, Latin and religion for all grades.

On October 1, 1908, Hautsch began the seminar year in Göttingen in the preparatory service for the higher teaching post. At the same time he was employed for a year at the Royal Society of Sciences in Göttingen at the newly founded Septuagint company . There he collected Septuagint manuscripts and wrote a study for the Bible review of Luke of Antioch . From October 1, 1909, Hautsch did his military service as a one-year volunteer in Höxter . On October 1, 1910, he went to the Göttingen grammar school as a test candidate , but even after retiring from active service he regularly took part in officers' courses.

During the first half of his probationary year, Hautsch worked again for the Göttingen Septuagint company (October 1, 1910 to March 31, 1911). However, he decided to pursue a career in school service. On October 1, 1911, he was employed as an assistant teacher at the Göttingen grammar school, and two years later he was given a permanent position as a senior teacher.

When the First World War broke out , Hautsch, who had been a lieutenant in the reserve since January 27, 1913, volunteered. He served at the front until the end of the war and was wounded several times and received awards. On May 15, 1918, he was appointed first lieutenant in the reserve.

After the end of the war, Hautsch returned to Göttingen in 1919 and continued to work as a high school teacher. He did not resume his scientific work. In 1921 his article on the Septuagint appeared in the Real Encyclopedia of Classical Classical Studies (RE). In the same year, Hautsch married Johanne Zimmer, with whom he had three children.
