Johann Friedrich Tiede

Johann Friedrich Tiede

Johann Friedrich Tiede (born April 9, 1732 in Pasewalk , † October 19, 1795 in Schweidnitz ) was a German Protestant theologian.

Life

The son of a merchant had attended school in Prenzlau in 1740 and the grammar school in Stettin in 1748 . In 1752 he began to study theology at the University of Halle . In addition, he wrote religious songs during this time, which he shaped his poetic talent. The Society of Friends of Fine Sciences in Halle made him a member. After he had finished his studies, he became secretary to the Royal Prussian General Johann von Mayr and, after his death in 1759, field preacher with the Anhalt-Bernburg regiment, with which he was stationed in Halle for a long time.

After the Treaty of Hubertusburg in 1763, he published a printed thank-you speech. The greater part of his sermons and ascetic writings also fall during that time. He left his previous relationship in 1774. At this time he had become the first pastor and school inspector in Schweidnitz, with the title of Royal Prussian Consistorial Councilor. He lived here until he died at the age of 64.

At that time Tiede was a popular preacher and respected ascetic writer. He had achieved importance especially in his time with his moral speeches printed from 1766 to 1769 . These were issued several times. The sixth edition of the two parts of His Conversations with God in the Evening Hours was published in 1794. The second and third volumes of his casual speeches appeared in 1796 from his estate, with an appendix of poems that spoke of his religiosity and his firm trust in God. They also contained sacred songs that were included in the hymn book of the garrison parish in Halle.
