from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Matthias Crumbtinger , also Matthaeus , Krumtinger , K / Crumtunger (us) , Crumtünger († April 15, 1625 in Lübeck ) was a German Evangelical Lutheran clergyman and chronicler.

Life

Crumbtinger was a son of the Westphalian preacher of the Lübeck Aegidienkirche Heinrich Krumtunger († 1600). After visiting the Katharineum , he studied Protestant theology , among other things in 1591/92 at the University of Tübingen and from August 4, 1593 at the University of Wittenberg , especially with Egidius Hunnius . With a Latin speech about the Trinity before the Lübeck superintendent Andreas Pouchenius , he was accepted as a candidate for the Lübeck Spiritual Ministry in 1595 . In 1598 he was appointed deacon (2nd pastor) at Lübeck Cathedral ; In 1614 he succeeded the late Joachim Dobbin as the main pastor of the cathedral.

Crumb Pleintinger became known as the chronicler of Reiser's unrest , a rebellion Lübeck citizens against the advice of the city in the years 1599-1605, which according to its leader Heinrich Reiser was named. In his sermons Crumbtinger took a stand against Reiser and his followers. He considered the cause of the citizens to be an uproar against the council, the authority appointed by God, and a work of the devil. In 1601 he was so harassed by the angry supporters of Reiser in the choir of the cathedral that his wife suffered a miscarriage out of fear.

In 1610 he observed the rare natural phenomenon of five sub-suns . The Lübeck city ​​physicist David Herlitz published his report on it .
