Friedrich Wilhelm Valentiner

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Friedrich Wilhelm Valentiner (born August 25, 1807 in Kiel , † December 9, 1889 in Leipzig ) was a German Evangelical Lutheran clergyman.

Life

Friedrich Peter Valentiner came from an old academic family in Schleswig-Holstein. He was a son of the Kiel mathematician Friedrich Valentiner . Friedrich Peter Valentiner and Christian August Valentiner were his cousins .

From Easter 1826 he studied Protestant theology at the Christian-Albrechts-Universität zu Kiel and became a member of the Corps Holsatia . In 1828 he was awarded Richard's legacy and gave a speech in Latin on the occasion. In 1831 he passed the theological exam with the Holstein government in Glückstadt . On July 11, 1841 he was appointed deacon in Eckernförde and in 1845 he moved to Gelting as pastor of St. Katharinen.

Because of his anti-Danish attitude in the course of the Schleswig-Holstein uprising , he, like his two cousins, was dismissed by the Danish government on October 11, 1851. Thereupon he was appointed deacon of the Thomaskirche (Leipzig) in 1853 . Later he was promoted to archdeacon (2nd pastor).

He was the father of the astronomer Karl Wilhelm Valentiner ; the physicist Siegfried Valentiner and the art historian Wilhelm Reinhold Valentiner were his grandchildren.

Aftermath

In the church struggle , the Gelting pastor Wolfgang Miether (1909–1945), who belonged to the Confessing Church , remembered Valentiner in an article in the church newspaper Das Evangelische Hamburg and presented him as a model of resistance against a state-mandated national church .
