Kaspar Kratzer

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kaspar Kratzer (* 1545 in Ulm ; † after September 26, 1585 ) was a German Jesuit who later became a Lutheran theologian and worked in Bohemia , Austria and Upper Hungary.

Life

Kaspar Kratzer was born in Ulm as the son of Arbogast Kratzer. Allegedly he had Protestant parents and converted to Catholicism in his youth; a standard charge against converts . Kratzer was a student of Martin Balticus (* around 1532; † 1601) at the Ulm Latin School . At the age of 20 he moved to Vienna and studied at the University of Vienna for three years in the late 1560s . Kratzer had a free table in the Lilienburse , a foundation for needy students from Swabia, Württemberg and Ulm.

Jesuit in Vienna and Prague

On September 16, 1569, at the age of 24, he was accepted as a novice (Scholasticus approbatus) in the Jesuit order and in 1570 sent from Vienna to the Prague Novice House ("Domus Probationis") to continue his studies at the University of Prague . Kratzer became a librarian, teacher and Regens at the Jesuit College in Prague , but did not take any religious vows . The order provincial Lorenzo Maggio (1531-1605) called him a " Bibliophagus " (book eater). In February 1578, Kratzer was ordained a deacon by Bishop Johann Caspar Neubeck (1545–1594) in Vienna, where he was teaching at the time as a professor at the Jesuit College .

On May 4, 1578, he secretly left the convent. From 1578 there is also an entry by Kratzer in the register of Wilhelm Friedrich Lutz (1551–1597), who at that time as pastor of Göllersdorf repeatedly held secret services in aristocratic free houses in Vienna, where Protestant religious practice was prohibited.

Conversion and work in Tübingen

In October 1578 " Casparus Kratzer Vlmensis Jesuita " registered in Tübingen . He received a free table at the Princely Scholarship Collegium Sanctorum Georgii et Martini and worked there as Ephorus and inspector of the Augsburg scholarship holders. Maximilian von Mämming († 1610) zu Kirchberg and Sitzenthal engaged him in 1579 as private tutor ( Preceptor ) for his ward Hans Ludwig († 1607) and (Hans) Helmhard von Kirchberg († 1593) to Viehofen and Seisenburg . They were sons of the Protestant leader Wilhelm von Kirchberg († 1573) zu Viehofen and Seisenburg and his first wife (⚭ 1556) Anastasia von Mämming († 1565). Both were enrolled in Tübingen on May 28, 1579.

In Tübingen, Kratzer participated in two public disputationscontra Papatus idolatriam ” (“ against the idolatry of the papacy ”) on the controversial theological question of the worship of images and thus probably earned the master's degree. He was considered educated in Artes , biblical languages ​​and patristics and experienced in discussion.

Kaspar Kratzer married Anna Abelin in Tübingen in 1580, the daughter of Matthäus Abelin from Ulm. Christoph von Schallenberg (1561–1597), who was studying in Tübingen at the time, wrote a wedding poem ( Epithalamium ) for the occasion . Kratzer himself published in 1580 together with Christoph Stammler (1537–1587) a commemorative publication on the wedding of deacon Christoph Stähelin (1554–1613) with Esther Beurlin (1559–1637), the daughter of the late Tübingen Chancellor Jakob Beurlin († 1561). Another commemorative publication for the occasion was written in 1579 by Hieronymus Megiser (1554–1618/19).

Unsuccessful job at the landscape school in Graz

In December 1579, on the recommendation of Jacob Heerbrand (1521–1600) , Kratzer was proposed by the University of Tübingen to the Styrian provincial estates as rector of the landscape school in the “Eggenberger Stift” in Graz . Their previous rector Philipp Marbach had become professor of theology in Heidelberg . In February 1580 Magister Kratzer received an appointment as prorector to Graz, as rector Hieronymus Deubener (Peristerius) († after 1601) was appointed. Kratzer accepted the appointment in April 1580 and left Tübingen after his wedding. Even before Kratzer's entry into service, there was a dispute between the Protestant-minded landscape and the Catholic Archduke Karl II of Inner Austria (1540–1590) about his employment. The landscape secretary Kaspar Hirsch (* 1538; † 1612/17) picked up Kratzer in Wiener Neustadt to prevent his arrest. Kratzer was temporarily admitted to Weyer Castle with Wilhelm von Ratmannsdorf († 1595).

In May of the same year, Kratzer was expelled from Graz by Archduke Karl as an "apostate Jesuit" who had broken his vow. Governor Georg der Breite von Herberstein (1529–1586) conveyed the instructions of the Archduke to the three present in Graz: Wilhelm von Gera († 1600) zu Arnfels, Landesvizeom Georg Seifried von Trübeneck zu Schwarzenstein and Oberistzeugmeister Michael von Rindsmaul († 1591) Fraunheim; the estates tried in vain to reverse the decision. Seyfried von Eggenberg and Herberstein (1526–1594), former mayor of Graz, gave Kratzer shelter for a few days in his Eggenberg Palace near Graz.

Kratzer's colleague from Tübingen, Magister Christoph Stammler, who had come to Graz with him and succeeded Lorenz Püchler as a teacher at the collegiate school, was able to stay in the city. He was buried in 1587 in the then Protestant collegiate church in Graz.

Escape from prison in Vienna

After his return, Kratzer was forced to resign from office in Graz. The landscape compensated him for the expenses incurred and as compensation for giving up the position with a total of 500 guilders. Then Kratzer entered the service of Hans Rueber zu Pixendorf (1529–1584), who was the imperial chief captain in Upper Hungary. On the way there he was arrested in Vienna at the instigation of Melchior Khlesl (1552-1630), but was able to escape from prison.

Zips (Upper Hungary)

On September 5, 1580, Kratzer and his wife reached the garrison town of Kaschau ( Košice ) in Upper Hungary. He became court chaplain to General Rueber for the German community in Käsmark ( Kežmarok ) in the Spiš ; Hans Rueber had owned the castle there since 1571.

In an argument between Kratzers and his colleague Liz. Mento Gogreve (around 1541; † after 1588), who was Rueber's court preacher in Grafenwörth until 1582/83 , had to mediate the universities of Rostock and Tübingen, where the two opponents had studied, with “ Consilia ” at Rueber's request in 1582 . The Rostock theological faculty had their statement, which stated Kratzer's “orthodoxy” and called on both sides to reconcile, by Martin Chemnitz (1522–1586) and Tilemann Hesshus (1527–1588).

Against the opinion of Valentin Hortensius (gardener), senior ( superintendent ) of the 24 Spis towns since November 1581, Kratzer spoke out decisively in favor of the acceptance of the concord formula , but was able to rely on the convent of evangelical preachers on January 29, 1582 in Käsmark ( Kežmarok ) and on February 14, 1582 in Zipser Neuendorf ( Spišská Nová Ves ).

On January 9, 1583, 12 officials of the Spis Chamber in Kosice issued him a certificate in which Kratzer is referred to as “theologiae designatus doctor” and he is certified as having an impeccable way of life and Lutheran orthodoxy. Kratzer remained a preacher in Käsmark until November 19, 1583. His successor was the " Philippist " Sebastian Ambrosius called Lahm (1554–1600).

Hans Rueber then brought Kratzer to Košice. Wilhelm Friedrich Lutz, whom Kratzer had already met in 1578, was appointed court preacher there in 1583. On April 28, 1585 - in the meantime Rueber had died and Lutz had become superintendent in Nördlingen - " Caspar Kraczerus, civis Ulmensis, ordinarily white appointed and confirmed pastor of Cassau " signed the " Confessio Quinque Liberum Regium Civitatum " of the five royal free cities of 1549 " Short extract, and bundling ... of the Christian Augsburg Confession , and its Apologiae " is. In September 1585 his former Viennese professor colleague Christian Francken (* 1549; † after 1595) reported to the Jesuits there by letter that Kaspar Kratzer was staying in Kosice.
