Life

Gottlieb Nagel was the son of the carpenter Christian Friedrich Nagel. He attended the cathedral school in Schwerin . At Easter 1806 he began studying theology at the University of Rostock and after three semesters switched to philology. From 1808 he continued his studies at the University of Heidelberg and his research from 1809 at the universities of Jena and Göttingen . In Heidelberg he became a member of the Corps Vandalia I Heidelberg . He left Göttingen in September 1809 in connection with the gendarme affair and returned home with other Mecklenburg students. In 1810 he suffered from a nervous fever in Mecklenburg, and in 1811 he accepted a position as a private tutor for noble families in Mecklenburg, after initially giving lessons at the Schwerin Cathedral School for a few hours.

In 1813 he went to Breslau as a volunteer with Theodor Körner , Friedrich Christoph Förster , Gottlieb Schnelle and Carl Müller and joined the Lützow Free Corps , where he was immediately accepted as an officer and served during the Wars of Liberation until the First Peace of Paris . He was in Wöbbelin in 1813 and, after Körner's death, personally concerned, wrote the call to vengeance . Afterwards he was assigned to the Kleve location on the Lower Rhine with the Lützowern . The attempt to continue the studies failed on Napoleon's return. Once again, Nagel took up arms and fought in the 25th Line Infantry Regiment in the Netherlands at the Battle of Ligny . His diaries from these times of war are an important source of the time of the Wars of Liberation. Together with Carl Müller, he kept a promise made to Gottlieb Schnelle and in 1816 nailed his sword (later referred to as a sword) to the oak at Theodor Körner's grave in Wöbbelin.

In 1816 he succeeded in continuing and completing his studies at the University of Halle with a doctorate in Dr. phil. in 1818. As early as 1817 he passed the examination for the higher teaching post in Berlin and in the same year took up his first position in the school service at the Royal Gymnasium in Cleve , where he was promoted from senior teacher to director of the gymnasium in 1822 and up to this point remained after his untimely death.

Gottlieb Nagel was married to (Elise) Lucie (Christine) Becker (born March 6, 1799 in Groß Gievitz) since 1818 , a daughter of the district councilor Georg Jacob Becker (1761-1826). This marriage resulted in (at least) two sons and a daughter. Another daughter died two days after giving birth. When he was a student in Rostock, Nagel had befriended two Becker brothers and Gievitz had become his second home during his studies. Also Ulrich Becker has been his brother.
