Ferdinand Teuffer

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ferdinand Teuffer (born November 1, 1801 in Altona ; † February 17, 1840 in Pinneberg ) was a German-Danish lawyer and author .

Life

Ferdinand Teuffer was born as the son of the businessman Moritz Teuffer (* July 12, 1771, † October 28, 1840) and his wife Elise Christiane, née Eckstein, born. His mother was the aunt of Ferdinand Johann Wit, who was about the same age as Ferdinand Teuffer.

Together they visited the Christianeum in Altona. Ferdinand Johannes Wit von Dörring made a name for himself early on and Ferdinand Teuffer tried to emulate him and possibly outbid him. He kept this wish also in his later life.

Ferdinand Teuffer began studying Protestant theology , but then switched to medicine and later to law . He attended the universities in Jena , Göttingen , Bonn , Heidelberg , Erlangen , mainly and finally the University of Kiel . During his studies he was a member of the 1817 Urburschenschaft in Jena, 1818, the old Kiel fraternity , in 1821 the fraternity Germania Kiel and in 1823 the old Erlanger fraternity Germania . In 1817 he took part in the Wartburg Festival. In Bonn he received a consilium abeundi . 1823 in Erlangen and in 1825 in Kiel for a gun - duel he was from the University relegated .

In the summer of 1826 he moved to Glückstadt and made various trips from there until the beginning of 1828. In May 1828 he was charged with a duel and sentenced to two years' arrest , which he spent in the Friedrichsort Fortress . In May 1830 he was released from prison and then lived in Arnis and Kappeln , where he prepared for the legal examination , which he passed in 1831 at Gottorf Castle in Schleswig .

On April 2, 1833, he was appointed lawyer in the lower court in the duchies of Schleswig and Holstein . For this he chose Glückstadt as his place of residence.

He received no financial support from his father because he had already used up large parts of his father's fortune in the past. His father referred him to the benefits from his practice, but they were not significant.

He moved from Glückstadt to Pinneberg and became engaged to Margaretha Haß on June 30, 1838.

Because of his way of life, he was taken into prison in Pinneberg by the police for "vagabonding", in which he died at the end of February 1840.
