Michael Ettmüller

Michael Ettmüller (born May 26, 1644 in Leipzig ; † March 9, 1683 ibid) was a German doctor, surgeon and botanist.

Life

Michael Ettmüller studied philosophy and medicine in Leipzig and Wittenberg, received a bachelor's degree in 1663 , and a licentiate in medicine in 1666 . He then went on a study trip that took him via Turin, Naples, Paris and England to Leiden . From there his parents called him back to Leipzig prematurely. In 1668 he received his doctorate in Leipzig , in 1676 he qualified as a private lecturer at the medical faculty, in 1681 he was appointed professor of botany and soon afterwards was appointed associate professor of surgery. He died young of a lung disease. Most of his writings were published after his death by his son Michael Ernst Ettmüller .

On October 20, 1670 he was elected member ( matriculation number 36 ) of the Leopoldina .

Ettmüller was an avid advocate of chemiatry and chemical drugs dominated his therapy recommendations. In his 158-page work on Chymia rationalis et experimentalis (1684) he quoted from the chemical and pharmacological works of no fewer than 70 authors, including Helmont (24 times), Paracelsus (21 times), Zwelfer (17 times), Basilius Valentinus (13 times), Becher (9 times), Tachenius (7 times), Schroeder (6 times), Pierre Potier (1581–1640) (6 times), Sala , Boyle , Croll , Glauber , Hartmann and Johann Michael (1606– 1667) (5 times each).

Michael Etmüller described the indications for intravenous injections in 1668.

Michael Ettmüller mentioned the mania sine delirio , a concept that in the history of psychiatry , conveyed through the manie sans délire Pinels , is considered to be the forerunner of Esquirol's monomania .
