Ludolf Heinrich Hake

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ludolf Heinrich Hake (also Hack , Haack , Heck ; born March 19, 1677 in Brilon ; † after 1720) was the first known professor of law at the Düsseldorf Academy of Law .

Life

Hake's father was named Walradus Hake. Ludolf was matriculated on May 6, 1694 as "logicus ex gymnasio Laurentiano" at the University of Cologne . Just two years later he was listed in the doctoral catalog of the Laurentianum grammar school as a master's degree . Further information on obtaining his doctorate, his career and the beginning of his teaching activity in Düsseldorf could no longer be determined, also due to the frequency of the names. In the book History of the City of Düsseldorf (1921) not even the first name is mentioned. Whether there are family ties to the people of the same name, Kanzleiverwalter Hake (1679) and Hofrat Lic. Leopold Brixius Hack (1624), can no longer be clarified today either. A descent from the noble family of the same name Hake seems rather unlikely.

Under the reign of Jan Wellems (1679–1716) as Duke of the Duchy of Berg , after the War of the Palatinate Succession , the first legal lectures in Düsseldorf began in 1697 with Hake. Before that, the reform-loving ruler had introduced the so-called noble boy lessons . Hake's students came from home and abroad and strongly advocated the continuation of the lectures. On May 1, 1712, he was transferred to the Electoral Palatinate Court of Justice in his capacity as court counselor. His successor Gerheuser had recommended the continuation of the Jülich-Bergische Land estates on May 3, 1718.

With the death of Jan Wellem in 1716, Hake's tracks are lost. Johann Wilhelm's brother, Karl Philipp, dissolved the court and moved the seat of government to Heidelberg, four years later to Mannheim. In addition, the country was heavily indebted due to Jan Wellem's overly generous spending policy. Hake's successor was Franciscus Gerheuser (from 1687). He is said to have previously studied with Hake.
