Georg Sigismund Green the Younger (also: Georg Sigmund Green ; * April 8, 1712 in Chemnitz ; † January 12, 1754 in Meißen ) was a German Protestant theologian.
Life
Georg Sigismund Green the Younger was born in Chemnitz in 1712 as the son of the Chemnitz superintendent Georg Sigismund Green the Elder (1673-1734). He received his education in his hometown and attended high school there. His grandfather Georg Green had also been a theologian, so he decided to study theology as well. Therefore, he went to the University of Wittenberg on May 19, 1729 , later he moved to the University of Leipzig , where he obtained a baccalaureate in 1731 and a master's degree in philosophy in 1732 .
In the following year he held lectures as a private lecturer in Leipzig. In 1736 he became vice principal of the city school in Meißen. After he was promoted to rector of the school in 1738, he was taken over as a deacon at the Franciscan Church in 1746 in the church service and he became archdeacon of the same year. Later he took over the vicariate of the Ephorie Meissen, which he held until the end of his life.
Most of his individual writings have been summarized in the collective volumes Exercitationes philologicae, autiquariae et criticae, in Academia Lipsiensi et Schola Misenensi publico propositae (Meißen 1744) and in the Exercitationum sacrarum ad selectos S. Codicia locos Decas prima (Dresden 1749). He also wrote a few Latin and German poems.
