Friedrich Karl von Strombeck

Friedrich Karl von Strombeck , from 1812 Freiherr von Strombeck (born September 16, 1771 in Braunschweig , † August 17, 1848 in Wolfenbüttel ) was a German lawyer , including in the Kingdom of Westphalia . He should not be confused with his brother, the lawyer and author Friedrich Heinrich von Strombeck (1773–1832).

Life

While attending school in Braunschweig, he was influenced by Karl Christian Gärtner . From 1789 he studied law at the University of Helmstedt , and at that time lived with Paul Jakob Bruns . After the student unrest at the University of Helmstedt in the winter of 1790/1791, he left Helmstedt and from 1791 attended the University of Göttingen , where he heard Georg Ludwig Böhmer , Johann Stephan Pütter , Justus Claproth , Justus Friedrich Runde and Gottfried August Bürger . He had a good relationship with Christian Gottlob Heyne .

In 1793 he went to a trip to Italy back to Braunschweig, the Italian language and translated learned Ars amatoria and Remedia Amoris of Ovid . Thereupon Duke Karl Wilhelm Ferdinand von Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel made him Assessor at the court court in Wolfenbüttel , where he moved in 1797. There he translated the elegies of Tibullus .

At the suggestion of the duke, he was appointed court and abbot at the Gandersheim monastery in 1799 . At that time, Auguste Dorothea von Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel was the abbess there , who valued him and his work. When the duke and the princely family left the principality of Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel after the battle of Jena and Auerstedt , he accompanied the abbess to Rostock , Lübeck and Ottensen . In negotiations with Napoleon Bonaparte , he succeeded in ensuring that the abbess retained the income and that she could stay in Gandersheim.

Strombeck dealt in the following time with the judiciary in the Kingdom of Westphalia and became a close friend of the French writer Stendhal (1783-1842), who worked as an administrative officer in Braunschweig from 1806 to 1808 and mentioned Strombeck several times in diary entries.

Strombeck was appointed President of the court in the Einbeck district by Joseph Jérôme Siméon in 1808 . When the abbess died in 1810, he received a pension through her will. In 1810 Strombeck became president at the Appellationshof Celle . He was a member of the imperial estates of the Kingdom of Westphalia and received the order of the Westphalian Crown . In 1812 he became a baron, in the same year also a member of the Academy of Sciences in Göttingen and State Councilor in Kassel .

However, he was forbidden to stay in Kassel and he went to Wolfenbüttel, where he translated Tacitus and Sallust . In 1816 Pauline zur Lippe appointed him a secret councilor at the Wolfenbüttel Higher Appeal Court . After further positions, u. a. in tax administration, he retired in 1835. After that he continued to be active in literature and pursued scientific, legal and historical studies.

He also dealt with geology, published about it and translated, for example, the textbook of geology by Scipione Breislak into German in 1819 . His nephew August von Strombeck was a geologist.

In 1799 he married Amalie von Bülow (* July 18, 1778; † December 25, 1860), daughter of Franz von Bülow , on Beienrode and Rhode, and his wife Lisette von Veltheim . The couple had seven children, three of whom survived, including:
