from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Julius Reinhold Stöckhardt (born April 6, 1831 in Budissin , † January 29, 1901 in Berlin ) was a Prussian ministerial official and composer .

Life

family

Julius Reinhold Stöckhardt moved with his parents to Saint Petersburg at the age of one , because his father, Robert Stöckhardt , had received an appointment as professor of Roman law . Here he attended Russian schools until he graduated from high school. The family returned to Germany after the early death of their father in 1848 and initially found their way to Naumburg , the home of their mother Emilie nee. Voigt, a new home. The later painter Clara Stöckhardt was his sister, the architect Heinrich Stöckhardt his brother and the agricultural scientist Ernst Theodor Stöckhardt his uncle.

education

Stöckhardt studied in Leipzig theology and in Jena and Berlin Economics and Law . During this time it was already evident that he not only played the piano excellently , but could also compose. He performed in the house of Karl Richard Lepsius , who also came from Naumburg, with his own compositions during his student days.

Career

After a legal traineeship in Erfurt and working as a government assessor in Danzig , he was appointed to the government council in Düsseldorf in 1871 . He prepared the presentation of the Rhineland at the World Exhibition in Vienna in 1873 and was entrusted with the management of the presentation of the German Empire on behalf of Oberregierungsrat Moser . In 1873 Stöckhardt was appointed to the government council in the Ministry of Commerce in Berlin, in 1875 he was appointed to the secret upper government council and in 1880 to the lecturing council in the ministry for public works. This was spun off from the Ministry of Commerce under Albert von Maybach in 1879 and administered, among other things, the Prussian State Railways . In 1892 Stöckhardt received the Order of the Red Eagle, 2nd class.

Participation in social life

Together with his wife, Constanze geb. Grosser, Stöckhardt belonged to the circle of friends of Theodor Fontane and Clara Schumann . His father-in-law Theodor Grosser, a raw metal merchant with business connections to America, had also been able to convey artistic suggestions to Fontane. The Stöckhardt couple met Fontane in 1885 in the Giant Mountains . They often stayed on the woman's family estate, the Annenhof in Hohenwiese (Silesia) , and, like Fontane, regularly took part in the social life of Schmiedeberg and Krummhübel .

Death and grave

Julius Reinhold Stöckhardt died in Berlin in 1901 at the age of 69 and was buried in the hereditary funeral of the Grosser family in the Matthäus cemetery in Schöneberg . The grave complex has been preserved.
