Lambert Witinghof

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lambert Witinghof , also Lambert Wytinkhof or Lambertus Wittinghoff (* in Lübeck ; † March 14, 1476 ibid) was a German university professor, rector of the University of Rostock and canon in Lübeck.

Life

Lambert Witinghof came from a Lübeck council family whose surname is handed down and appended in very different spellings. The Lübeck Council Line of Emil Ferdinand Fehling prefers the name Wickinghof , for example with the Lübeck Mayor Johann Wickinghof , who is named in the Council Line as the son of the citizen Lambert Wickinghof and could therefore be a close relative of Lambert Witinghof. He enrolled probably for the first time in 1433 at the University of Rostock and in 1441 to study law at the Universitas Studii Coloniensis , which he obtained in 1449 with the doctorate to Dr. decr. finished. In Cologne he is also recorded as an Antoniter in 1446 . In 1458 he became canon in the cathedral chapter of Lübeck Cathedral and professor at the law faculty of the University of Rostock . Up to 1472 he was rector nine times and twice vice rector of the University of Rostock, often as a result of rector Johannes Stammel , who was also from Lübeck . He was buried in Lübeck Cathedral, where his figure grave slab has been heavily worn and has been preserved in the east of the choir in front of the Marientide Chapel, alienated by a secondary inscription .
