Mento Gogreve

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mento Gogreve (* around 1541 in Lippstadt ; † after November 19, 1588 ) was a German Lutheran theologian and educator who worked in Austria and Germany.

Life

Mento or Mentho Gogreve (Gogrevius, Gogreff, Gogräfe, Gograue) was born in Lippstadt (Latinized: Lupfurt, Lüppfurt, Lippfurt) and called himself “Lippiensis” (= “Lippstädter”) or “ Sicamberus ”, that is, someone from the area between Lippe and Ruhr . The first name "Mento" (Menso, Menzo, Mense) is a Low German short form of "Meinhard" or "Menhart". It was sometimes misunderstood as a family name by contemporaries.

Saxony and Lower Saxony

Mento Gogreve probably attended the Latin school in Lippstadt. Orphaned at an early age, he was taken by Burchard XVIII. (1483–1550) and especially promoted by his son Heinrich X. von Saldern (1532–1588), who were pawns at Lauenstein near Hameln . Heinrich X. von Saldern had studied in Wittenberg and was councilor in Wolfenbüttel until Duke Julius von Lüneburg and Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel (1528–1589, ruled 1568) came to power, and later Calenberg councilor. It also made it possible for Peter Hagen (1554–1614), who was born in Lippstadt, to study law. After the death of Margarethe von Saldern († 1561), widow of Reineke von Wend († 1535), or the death of her son Simon von Wend († 1548), Drost zu Varenholz and Count's Lippe advice, the Brunswick family had von Saldern Inherited free float near Lippstadt, which she was able to maintain until 1563.

On July 30, 1557, Gogreve registered as " Mento Gogref Lippiensis Westualus " in Wittenberg . In 1560 he moved as “ Mento Gogreffius ” to the University of Jena , which had been newly founded two years earlier , where he acquired his master’s degree and is mentioned in 1561 as pastor of Bergkirchen in the county of Schaumburg . In 1562, " M. Gogreff " entered the register of Count Wilhelm I von Schwarzburg-Frankenhausen (1534–1598).

Due to an allegedly false accusation, Gogreve was expelled from the county of Schaumburg around 1562 and after some time was accepted by the Hameln City Council. In 1563 he was a teacher in the lower classes of the Latin school in Hameln . There he wrote in September 1563 as " M. Mento Gogreuius Ludi literarij apud Hamelopolitanos moderator " a work on Virgil's pastoral poems , which he dedicated to his mentor Heinrich X. von Saldern.

From April 1566 to around 1572 Gogreve was the joint court preacher of the brothers Otto VIII (around 1530–1582), Erich V (around 1535–1575) and Friedrich III. (around 1540–1570) Count of Hoya-Bruchhausen in Nienburg / Weser ; at that time he had a wife and children.

As an annual salary, Gogreve received " the court clothing, 40 thalers for entertainment and also to keep his wife and children annually 6 Malter rye, 6 Malter barley, 4 fat pigs, 1 fat local ox, 6 fat sheep, for 3 cows the grass pasture and des In winter the feeding to it, 30 men’s service - loads of wood for the sake of its firing. “The counts also wanted to have his wife sow 2 Himten flax every year in our field for this purpose. In addition, it should also grazed 8 lean hogs for our pigs and the trough are obtained ".

In 1570 Gogreve took part in a sacrament disputation in County Hoya , whereupon he wrote a monograph against the accusation u. a. of Mag. Friedrich Rusch (1519–1599) defended to have represented Calvinist or Brenzian positions. In 1579 and 1583 Gogreve revised this writing and dedicated it to his respective employers.

In order to settle the dispute between Gogreve and Rusch, Count Erich appointed the Lutheran Mag. Johann Becker († around 1571/72) as superintendent, who in 1570 was appointed by the Reformed Mayor Daniel von Büren (1512–1593) in Bremen from the pastor's office “ Our love women “had been displaced. Hermann Hamelmann (1526–1595) praised Becker and Gogreve in the foreword when he re-published De poedobaptismo des Hermann von dem Busche in 1572. After Becker's death, Grogreve had to leave his position, although he was supported by the Hoya Chancellor Johann Haken and his son, Councilor Robert Haken. He may have had to leave the job because his first marriage ended in divorce in 1572. The wife and son stayed in Nienburg.

Mecklenburg

In November 1572 he enrolled as " M. Mento Gogreuius Lippiensis, Jenæ promotus, honoratus " in Rostock . He was recommended to the Rostock theology professor David Chyträus (1530–1600) by Martin Chemnitz (1522–1586) and Nikolaus Selnecker (1530–1592). In May and June 1573, Gogreve was briefly a deacon (chaplain) at the Jakobikirche because Superintendent Simon Pauli (1534–1591) wanted to check his suitability for an office in Schwerin . The Princely Secretary Johann Molinus protested in the name of the Rostock pastor to Duke Johann Albrecht I of Mecklenburg (1525–1576) against this occupation, because " all kinds of speeches about Mentonis doctrine and life, if he was elsewhere ... now and then in this EFG Universities and City has been blown up “and he could not produce a leaving certificate from County Hoya.

On May 18, 1573, Gogreve took part in a disputation on the characteristics of the “true church” as a license exam . In July 1573 he was awarded a licentiate in theology. This re-examination was deemed necessary because Gogreve had not been able to produce any certificates. Even before that, however, Mento Grogreve was after some information when clergy Ministry in Nienburg ( " Neuchâtel had requested"), at the Church of St. James " because of Calvinismi enturlaubet been" and had left the city on June 9, 1573rd

From 1573 to 1574 Gogreve was Stiftssuperintendent in the Hochstift Schwerin under its administrator Duke Ulrich (III.) Of Mecklenburg (1527-1603). Among other things, Gogreve was responsible for the staff of the Schwerin collegiate school , where rector Joachim Bunger had resigned in the summer of 1573, vice-rector Valentin Roloff (Rudolph) was to be retired and a new cantor had to be found.

Austria and Upper Hungary

After more than a year of negotiations between the Styrian estates with Maximilian II (1527–1576), through the mediation of David Chyträus, who was rector of the University of Rostock that year, Gogreve received it on August 15, 1573 together with the court preacher of Brandenburg, D. Georg Coelestin (1525 –1579) the imperial authorization to come to Austria. While Coelestin ultimately did not accept the appointment as superintendent and returned from Vienna to Berlin , Gogreve was a deacon and teacher at the Lutheran collegiate school (Protestant school illustrious ) in the Styrian landscape in Graz in 1574 and 1575 . Already in January 1574 he was attacked in eight articles at a synod in Kaschau ( Košice ) by Thomas Fröhlich (Hilarius) († 1580) as an alleged Flacian . In 1575, “ Mento Gogreuius Licentiatus Theologus, Administer verbi Graciae, in Templo provinciae Styriae (= Servant of the Word in Graz, at the Styrian Landscape Church ) ” gave the Styrian superintendent Jeremias Homberger (1529–1595) an Elegia written by him about the “lamentable State “of the Church and countries around the world.

In a letter dated September 1, 1574, Gogreve tried in vain for a job in Iglau and in 1576 for a job in Ybbs on the Danube . In 1576 he was dismissed as a preacher with 300 guilders "clearance". He was preacher of Helmhard VIII. Jörger zu Tollet (1530–1594) and finally, in 1577, castle preacher of the imperial field colonel and Austrian governor in Upper Hungary Hans Rueber zu Pixendorf (1529–1584) in Grafenwörth . Erbtruchsess Michael Ludwig von Puchheim (1512–1580), Court War Council President Wilhelm von Hofkirchen , Mento Gogreve and Ambrosius Ziegler († 1578) arranged for Polycarp Leyser the Elder. Ä. during his stay in Göllersdorf to complain in a letter to Jakob Andreae about the work of Josua Opitz , who was accused of being a Flacian. In 1577 Gogreve briefly visited Rostock, from about this year he stayed permanently with Rueber in Kaschau in Upper Hungary.

Gogreve accused the Kaschau school principal Matthias Thoraconymus (* around 1550; † 1586) of sacramentalism until he gave up his position in January 1579. On February 11, 1579 Gogreve took part in the synod of Zeben . Hans Rueber had an exam carried out on August 10, 1579 in Kaschau, during which his court preacher Gogreve questioned pastor Johannes Lauchhammer (Leutchamerus, Lemhamerus) about his view of the Lord's Supper and sharply criticized Philipp Melanchthon's dogmatic textbook Corpus doctrinae Christianae (1560). In 1580 and 1583 he expected an imminent doctorate and called himself " Theologiae designatus D. ".

In a dispute between Gogreves and his Käsmarker colleague Mag. Kaspar Kratzer (1545-after 1585), in 1582, at Rueber's request, the universities of Rostock and Tübingen , where the two opponents had studied, had to mediate with “ Consilia ”. The Rostock Theological Faculty had their statement, which called on both sides for reconciliation, checked by Martin Chemnitz and Tilemann Hesshus (1527–1588).

Electoral Palatinate and Kurköln

Around 1583 Gogreve continued to designate himself as a doctor of theology designate. He was from Elector Ludwig VI. was appointed pastor and superintendent in Sinsheim by the Palatinate .

In August 1583 he was by Ludwig VI. or "borrowed" from the administrator of the Electoral Palatinate Johann Kasimir von Pfalz-Simmern to Kurköln. He traveled from Heidelberg to Werl in September and became field preacher of the Protestant Cologne prince Gebhard I von Waldburg . Gogreve was assigned to the Werler superintendent Kaspar Mutz and was supposed to reform the southern Sauerland . After half a year he resigned in February 1584 because he had fallen out with Mutz.

Since the Electoral Palatinate after the death of Ludwig VI. went back to Calvinism under the reign of Johann Casimir in October 1583 , the Lutheran Gogreve could no longer exercise the office of superintendent in Sinsheim. From July 21st - after the arrest of the preacher Konrad Fabri - until November 20th, 1584, “ Dr. Menon Gograeff “four months as a preacher in the Lutheran congregation in Cologne .

Electoral Saxony

In 1585 Gogreve, meanwhile with a doctorate, was appointed superintendent in Torgau under Elector August von Sachsen as successor to Kaspar Heidenreich († 1586) and on May 8th 1585 by the general superintendent Polykarp Leyser the Elder. E., Who knew Gogreve from their time together in Austria, was introduced to his office. In September 1586 Gogreve carried out a " Localvisitacion " in the Ephorie Torgau. However, a dispute soon arose with the city council because Gogreve had the candles removed from the altar on February 2, 1587 ( Maria Candlemas ). On September 17, 1587, under the new Elector Christian I of Saxony , a “Reformation Day” took place in Torgau, on which the estates wanted to reverse the changes. 1588 Gogreve was deposed or resigned from his office; allegedly he "ran away from the dust on November 19 , and hit the cow window " because his new wife, "a young lady from Kunzwerda ", whom he married on August 9, "prematurely" married on October 18, 1588 Son. His successor as superintendent in Torgau was on March 8, 1589, the Dresden First Court Preacher Tobias Beuther (1535-1620).

meaning

Gogreve was humanistic, dealt literarily with Virgil and had a good knowledge of ancient authors. His motto was “ Tandem patientia victrix ” (“In the end, patience is always the winner ”). He published various pamphlets in the so-called " Flacian dispute" and other internal evangelical disputes. He defended himself on various occasions against the accusation of being a cryptocalvinist . He was expelled from places both as a "Lutheran" and as an alleged "Calvinist". Gogreve saw himself as a Lutheran and, despite the polemics of the time, represented a rather moderate position between " Gnesiolutherans " and " Philippists ".

Gogreve ( "M. Mento" , "Mento Gogrenius" ) has been on the index Librorum Prohibitorum since 1582 in the 1st class of heretical writers.

Varia

Gogreve wrote about his unusual first name:

Mentonem quem nunc vocitant praenomine passim,
Mensonem dicit, patria rite domus,
Efficies, digne referam tua nomina Christe .
Nostraque sit verbo, consona vita, tuo.

Mento , as they now call him by first name everywhere,
- Menso is called at home in the manner of the fatherland -
you will complete it ( I would like to reproduce your names appropriately, oh Christ ),
and our life will come 'in harmony' [ Play on words with 'consonant'] through your word.

  2. Gogreve evidently refers to the "Lupfurdum, Lupphurdum", Greek Λούπφουρδον, mentioned by Claudius Ptolemäus ( Geographike Hyphegesis II, 11), the actual location of which is very uncertain (for the interpretation as "ford on the lip" cf. Rudolf E. Keller, Karl-Heinz Mulagk: The German language and its historical development. Buske, Hamburg 1995, p. 68). He uses it to identify his hometown on the Lippefurt.
