Karl Ludwig Braun

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Karl Ludwig Braun , also Carl Ludwig Braun (born October 24, 1796 in Gießen , † April 17, 1868 in Schlitz ), was a German physician and specialist author.

Life

The son of the medical officer and knight of the Grand Ducal Hessian Order of Merit , Franz Joseph Braun, first attended the grammar school in Arnsberg , Westphalia , which had only belonged to the Grand Duchy of Hesse since 1803. This was followed by a short school period at the pedagogue, the humanistic grammar school in Giessen. In 1814 he joined the Grand Ducal Voluntary Jäger Corps, which General Johann Georg von Schäffer-Bernstein , who resided in Arnsberg, had founded a year earlier, after the Grand Duchy of Hesse switched from the French to the Austrian side after the loss-making "Battle of Leipzig" -Prussian-Russian alliance had changed. He took part in the campaign, but enrolled again at the University of Giessen in autumn 1814. After a short study in Bonn at the university, which was re-established as the "Rhine University" in 1818, he received his doctorate on December 2, 1819 in Gießen with " Theses from the entire medical field " as a "Doctor of Medicine, Surgery and Obstetrics".

He then practiced with his father in Offenbach am Main until he was appointed official physician at the Hessen-Darmstädtischen Physikat Vöhl in May 1820 . In December 1825 he succeeded the medical officer Dr. Deibel moved to Schlitz and appointed his family doctor by Count Friedrich Wilhelm von Schlitz , called von Görz (1793–1839).

In 1826, Carl Ludwig Braun took part in a prize competition that the government of the Duchy of Oldenburg had advertised on November 16, 1822. A prize of 200 Dutch ducats was offered "for the best and most thorough answer to a number of questions about the nature and infection of yellow fever ". The Faculty of the Royal Prussian University in Berlin gave the award to Karl Christian Matthaei zu Verden an der Aller . With a total of 18 submissions, Braun was given an "honorable mention" and a little later submitted his " attempted answer to the questions about the yellow fever raised by the ducal-Oldenburg government in 1822 " in printed form.

On February 14, 1835, Braun was appointed to the Grand Ducal Hessian Councilor. On April 27, 1850, the "physician and councilor" Carl Ludwig Braun in Schlitz was awarded the Knight's Cross of the Order of Merit of Philip the Magnanimous , and on September 12, 1853, he was appointed Medical Councilor.

Braun was a member of the Historical Society of Schlitz and created an extensive collection of material on the history of Schlitz and its surroundings. He lived and worked in Schlitz until the end of his life, where he died at the age of 72.

Up to more recent publications it is reported that Karl Ludwig Braun moved from Schlitz in Hesse to Klingenberg am Main in Bavaria and later to Fürth . However, this is about an early confusion between Karl Ludwig Braun and the physician Johann Jacob Braun . Born in 1784 in Aschaffenburg , JJ Braun was after his doctorate to Dr. med. 1810 in Erlangen as "Physicus" (and committed botanist) in Orb ( Grand Duchy of Frankfurt ), from 1815 in the same position in the Bavarian town of Klingenberg and finally as a forensic doctor from 1833 until his retirement in 1851 in Fürth.
