Gregor Christian Martini
Gregor Christian Martini (* May 25, 1672 ; † February 28, 1728 ) was a German lawyer and lexicographer .
He was a lawyer at the court in Stargard in Western Pomerania , which at that time belonged to Prussia .
In 1704 he published a German dictionary under the title Scholar Teutschen Redner-Schatz or Oratorisches Lexikon . Here he resorted to texts by his half-brother Ernst Gottfried Meinelvus . Two planned further parts with an “Excerpt from divine and spiritual things” and a “core and preliminary wire of royal and princely speeches” have probably not appeared.
Martini was married twice. He had five sons, two of whom survived him.
