Johann Ernst Nizze , actually Ernst Nizze (born November 16, 1788 in Ribnitz , † February 10, 1872 in Stralsund ) was a German mathematics teacher and classical philologist. For 33 years he worked as the rector of the Stralsund grammar school.

Life

Ernst Nizze was the elder son of the Ribnitz pastor and prepositive Christian Nizze (1752–1813) and his wife, the pastor's daughter Henriette Dorothea nee. Plitt (1769-1792). The doctor and mayor of Ribnitz, Friedrich Ludwig Nizze (1791–1870), was his brother. His great-great-grandson is the Rostock pathologist Horst Nizze .

Nizze initially received home tuition and from 1804 attended the Friedrich-Wilhelms-Gymnasium in Berlin. After graduating from high school, he studied philology from 1807 at the University of Rostock , the University of Jena and the Ruprecht-Karls-University of Heidelberg . In 1808 he became a member of the Corps Guestphalia Heidelberg . In Heidelberg he became acquainted with the poet and translator Johann Heinrich Voss , who made a great impression on him. In 1812 Nizze received his doctorate at the University of Erlangen and took a position as vice-principal at the grammar school in Prenzlau . In the wars of liberation he joined the Lützow Freikorps in 1813 . In 1814 he returned as second lieutenant with the victorious army. In 1821 he moved from Prenzlau to the Sundisches Gymnasium in Stralsund. Here he taught science and mathematics. He was initially vice rector and in 1826 received the title of professor. From 1832 to 1865 he was the successor of Karl Kirchner rector of the grammar school. Nizze retired in 1865 at the age of 77, but remained socially and politically active.

In 1848 he was sent to the Frankfurt National Assembly as a member of the 15th Pomeranian constituency of Stralsund and Rügen in the province of Pomerania, alongside August Wiebker (constituency Anklam ), Georg Beseler (constituency Wolgast ) and Conrad Matthies (constituency Grimmen ) . With his friend Ernst Moritz Arndt , who had been elected in the Rhine Province , he represented the politics of the casino group . Nizze did not appear as a major speaker in the National Assembly; he spoke only briefly twice. On August 8, 1848, he wrote in a letter:

"We Prussian delegates have thus observed the great moderation, because we do not want a republican Germany and Prussia, rather consider such a disaster."

Nice's reputation as a teacher lasted for over a century. As a classical philologist, he published the original Greek texts and his German translations of the works of Aristotle (1824), Theodosius of Bithynia (1826) and a critical text edition of the works of Aristarchos of Samos (1856). His grave is in the St. Jürgen cemetery in Stralsund .
