Friedrich Karl Ludwig Vette , also Carl Vette, (born September 18, 1820 in Varenholz , † August 23, 1873 in Salzuflen ) was a lawyer , political journalist and revolutionary .

Life

Vette, son of a preacher, passed his law exam on February 8, 1848 and then became a lawyer. He was one of the spokesmen for the Lippe Democrats, President of the Detmold People's Association and, with others, published the magazine Die Wage on March 25, 1848 . He was one of the first revolutionaries in the 1848 revolution in Lippe. On the evening of March 6th, he had campaigned with great commitment for a petition to the prince, in which the freedom of the press , the publicity of the state parliament negotiations and a general equal election for a new representative body should be demanded. In May 1848 he founded the first “Volksverein” in Detmold with a few companions.

After Dresel and Leizmann, Vette was the last of the 'Wage' editors to step down at the end of January 1850, initially only on the grounds that he had been elected archivist in the Landtag, but Vette no longer appeared as editor of 'Wage', its editorial team from now on was managed by FL Wagener himself.

Karl Vette is said to have worked as a journalist again later, now with the 'Sonntagspost', which appeared from the end of 1855. He is also said to have been an editor again. It is not possible to say more precisely because preliminary work is missing and the names of all editors and - apart from editorials - usually not the names of the article writers are given in the magazine.

Until 1861 Vette was listed in the Lippe court calendar as a lawyer in Detmold .

In 1863 Vette is mentioned as secretary and 2nd chairman of the newly founded 'Gymnastics Club Lemgo von 1863 eV'.
