Johann Georg Gottlob Schwarz

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Johann Georg Gottlob Schwarz (born February 5, 1734 in Grebenau , † March 4, 1788 in Alsfeld ) was a German Protestant theologian.

Life

The son of the preacher Heinrich Schwarz had received his first instruction from his father. He studied theology at the University of Jena with Joachim Georg Darjes and Johann Peter Reusch and at the University of Gießen with Andreas Böhm and Rainer Heinrich Roll . After a time as private tutor in Giessen, he acquired the academic degree of Magister in Philosophy at the University of Marburg in 1762 . He then successfully gave private lectures.

In 1763 he became second city and castle preacher and in 1771 associate professor of theology at the Marburg University. In both positions he developed a successful activity and also carried out extensive dogmatic and church history studies. Due to his theological self-image, he got involved in a bitter literary feud with Karl Friedrich Bahrdt in Giessen, whereupon he was removed from the University of Marburg.

Since that time he has dealt philosophically and speculatively with the biblical exegesis and got in a skeptical-critical direction. After rejecting an offer to work as an inspector in Breidenbach in 1773, he went to Grünberg as his father's adjunct to support him in old age. In 1777 he became inspector, consistorial councilor and first pastor in Alsfeld, where he ended his life.

On November 11, 1763, he married Maria Wilhelmine Hedwig, the daughter of the court counselor and bailiff in Nidda Strecker. The marriage has two daughters and a son.
