Life

Johannes Klein studied Protestant theology at the University of Gießen from 1619 . In 1621 he came to Rostock to the house of Johann Quistorp (the elder) and in November 1621 was accepted as a master's degree at the University of Rostock . He joined the Societas ereunetica sive zetetica founded by Joachim Jungius and was its secretary ( registrator ).

In 1623 he was respondent to a disputation chaired by Johann Tarnow . From 1623 to 1625 he accompanied some young nobles to the University of Leiden as court master .

At the beginning of 1629, at the same time as Joachim Jungius, he was appointed professor of rhetoric at the Academic Gymnasium in Hamburg . However, he turned down this appointment and was appointed full professor of theology in Rostock on April 13, 1629.

Eight letters from Klein to Jungius have been preserved in Joachim Jungius' estate.
