Life

Kipp was the son of the Lübeck merchant and later crier Matthias Eberhard Kipp (1742–1792) and his wife Catharina, b. Hasentien, a sister of the lawyer Daniel Heinrich Hasentien . The councilor Eberhard Jakob Kipp was his grandfather. With the support of the Paulische Family Scholarship , he studied law at the University of Jena and was awarded a Dr. jur. PhD . During his studies he became a member of the Order of Harmonists . His student days are documented in his correspondence with the romantic poet Sophie Mereau , with whom he had a year-long love affair as a student in 1794/1795. At that time (1793–1801) she was the wife of the Jenens librarian and law teacher Friedrich Ernst Carl Mereau . Kipp fled Jena because of money worries in 1795. During the Lübeck French period in 1811 Kipp was judge at the French tribunal in Lübeck. In 1820 he was elected to the city council; the sub-rector of the Katharineum Heinrich Kunhardt dedicated an occasional pamphlet to him on his inauguration . He worked as a member of the Finance Department and in the Central Arms Deputation (1822-1832). From 1823 to 1832 he was the city's first archivist . In 1833 he was appointed mayor of Lübeck and died in his first year in office.
