The son of a wine merchant attended the Sebaldus-Gymnasium and then the Aegidianum in Nuremberg , before moving to Jena in 1668 to study theology. Under the influence of Johann Andreas Bosius , he expanded his studies to include history and antiquity, philosophy and eloquence as well as language studies. After two years of teaching in the house of the ducal Saxon-Gotha consistorial president Heidenreich, where he expanded his interest in law, he received his master's degree in 1676 with his dissertation De Gothorum ortu .

In 1681 a professorship in practical philosophy followed, with which the chair of poetry and eloquence at the University of Jena was connected.
