from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Johannes Haußleiter (born June 23, 1851 in Löpsingen , † November 2, 1928 in Greifswald ) was a German Evangelical Lutheran theologian.

Life

The son of the teacher Friedrich Haussleiter (1816–1894) studied theology and classical philology at the universities of Erlangen , Tübingen and Leipzig from 1869 to 1874 . During his studies in 1869 he became a member of the C. St. V. Uttenruthia Erlangen . After completing his studies, he became a teacher at the grammar school in Nördlingen , from where he moved to Erlangen in 1886 . In 1891 the University of Dorpat appointed him full professor for church history. In the following year he went to the University of Greifswald as the successor to Adolf Schlatter , where he taught as a full professor for the New Testament until his retirement in 1921. From 1900 to 1901 he was rector of the university. In 1908 he was given the title of Secret Consistorial Councilor. From 1912 to 1924 he was a part-time member of the consistory of the province of Pomerania . He represented a strict Lutheranism and practiced his traditionally conservative point of view, among other things, in 1911 as one of two academic theologians in the Spruchkollegium against the Cologne pastor Carl Jatho .

Haussleiter belonged to a commission to supplement the works of Philipp Melanchthon . He published various studies on the history of the Reformation on Martin Luther and Philipp Melanchthon, exegetical works on Johannine literature , patristic studies on early Christian confession and research on the life of Jesus . He approached the modern positions of faith that he opposed through his partial definition of the relationship between Jesus Christ and God as faith and unity of will, without being aware of it.

Johannes Haußleiter had been married to the pastor's daughter Emilie Bullemer (1860–1917) since 1881. They had four daughters, one of whom Mathilde married the theologian Otto Bauernfeind . His nephew of the same name, the classical philologist Johannes Haußleiter (* 1893) was the author of Vegetarianism in Antiquity (1935).

Johannes Haußleiter was buried in the Greifswald old cemetery .
