Johann Ludwig Ferdinand Arnoldi (born June 25, 1737 in Gießen ; † October 29, 1783 in Grossen-Linden ) was a German educator and Protestant theologian.

Life

Johann Ludwig Ferdinand Arnoldi was the son of the legal scholar Ernst Christoph Arnoldi . He had studied theology at the University of Giessen and, under the chairmanship of Johann Hermann Benner (1699–1782) , had defended a dissertation de haeretico jussu Pauli excludendo Tit. III, 10.11 . In 1759 he became court master of the children of General Rabenau on his farm in Appenborn near Rabenau , where he taught his deaf son with very good success. In 1762 he accompanied a young nobleman to the University of Tübingen , where he completed legal and political studies with him.

In 1767 both moved to the University of Göttingen with the same concern and in 1768 he was appointed pastor to Grossen-Linden, where he devoted himself to teaching the deaf and dumb . He had achieved some success and published his experiences in several books. In his work he had taken a complete object lesson, combined writing and reading with speaking. He did not expect the finger alphabet to be of any use.
