Georg Sebastian Jung

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Georg Sebastian Jung (* 1642/43 in Vienna ; † October 14, 1681 ibid) was an Austrian doctor and imperial physician in Vienna.

Life

Georg Sebastian Jung was born in Vienna, where he also studied medicine and in 1662 published his work “Theses medicae de hepatis actione et bilis usu”. Jung was repeated from the medical faculty in Vienna in 1665. He lived for several years in Johann Wilhelm Mannagetta's house and argued several times under Paul de Sorbait . Sorbait's deputy and later Leibmedicus Friedrich Ferdinand Illmer was another teacher of Georg Sebastian Jung. In 1668 Jung, together with Zacharias Mannagetta, carried out autopsies in the Vienna Court Hospital. He then became an assessor at the Medical Faculty in Vienna and, in 1670, assistant to Laurenz Wolfstriegel for a public anatomy. On October 20, 1670 , he became a member of the Leopoldina with the surname Podalirius I. He published articles in the "Ephemerides." As an input he delivered a manuscript on human blood to the Leopoldina. However, in 1673 an academy paper on the quince and its medicinal use was published with the title "Krysomelon seu malum aureum." In the first volume of the "Ephemerides", Jung was allowed to present several objects from the imperial treasury. This was seen as an honorable task.

In 1675 he was appointed imperial court medicus to Leopold I , and in 1677 he was appointed doctor to Countess Harrach. As court medicus, Jung campaigned for the imperial confirmation of the Leopoldina , which also took place in 1678. Jung died on October 14, 1681 in Vienna. He left his widow, Johanna Lucretia geb. von Warnburg and six children.
