Hegel (family)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Due to their multiple connections with other families of the bourgeois-academic upper class, the Hegel family was part of the " honesty " in Württemberg and thus formed the genealogical and sociological background for their best-known family member, the philosopher Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel .

genealogy

On October 20, 1643, the Hegel family received a letter of coat of arms from Matthäus Deuring von Mittelweiherburg, the Catholic chief bailiff in Göppingen . In addition to Johann Georg, his younger brothers Philipp, Israel and Christoph are named.

From the series of descendants of Johannes Hegel (1576–1641) and Johann Georg Hegel (1615–1680), in addition to some pastors in Württemberg, several Württemberg state and court officials emerged. There were several connections between the Hegel family and other influential families of Protestantism and Pietism in Württemberg: A sister of Johann Georg Hegel, Catharina (* 1613), married pastor Samuel Gmelin (later special superintendent of Sulz and Herrenberg) in 1639 and thus created more than just that Connection to the Gmelin family , from which many important scientists later emerged, but also to the Hochstetters from Tübingen, who are related to the Gmelin family . From there there were family links to the descendants of the reformer Erhard Schnepff as well as to the Enßlin family . This connection was renewed once more through the marriage of the parents of the philosopher Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel : The Rentkammersecretary Georg Ludwig Hegel was descended directly from Johann Georg Hegel, Maria Magdalena Louisa Fromm was descended directly from Erhard Schnepff , his son (Theodor) Dietrich in turn was married to the daughter Barbara of the reformer Johannes Brenz .
