Johannes Hagemeister (* 1502 in Barth ; † 1569 in Körlin ) was a German theologian of the Reformation period in Pomerania .

Life

The son of Albrecht Hagemeister from Barth studied theology at the University of Greifswald in 1522 . He was heard as a witness in the court proceedings against the pastor's complaint against the city of Stralsund before the Reich Chamber of Commerce. In 1529 he gave lectures at the Greifswald artist faculty . After promotion to the Master , he was canon at St. Nikolai Cathedral . In 1537 he was elected rector of the university. In the same year he represented the city of Greifswald in the dispute over a vicarie , which had been transferred to Johannes Erp after Wichmann Kruse's death († 1534).

After switching to Protestantism , he left the university and in 1538 became pastor at the Nikolaikirche in Anklam . There he got into a dispute with the city council and the general superintendent Johannes Knipstro , whereupon he was removed from his office in 1544 by Duke Philip I of Pomerania-Wolgast . He then stayed in Pasewalk and Stettin before becoming a prepositor in Treptow at Rega in 1559 . He took part in the General Synods in Szczecin in 1561 and 1562. He then took over the pastorate in Körlin , which he held until his death in 1569.
