Ludwig Dringenberg

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ludwig Dringenberg (* 1410 probably in Dringenberg , Prince Diocese of Paderborn , † 1477 in Schlettstadt , Alsace ) was a German educator, humanist and cleric.

Dringenberg was probably born in Dringenberg in Westphalia. He was probably at a school of the Brothers of Common Life , also called Hieronymus School , which worked in the Böddeken monastery . He studied in Heidelberg from 1430. In Schlettstadt in Alsace he became head of the Latin school there in 1441. He set up a humanist library there, which today, together with the private library of Beatus Rhenanus, is still important as a humanist library in Schlettstadt . A well-known student of Dringenberg was Jakob Wimpheling , of whose early influence by Dringenberg Erasmus von Rotterdam can tell.
