Georg Otto Bussenius (born March 17, 1848 in Ebstorf ; † April 6, 1924 in Lübeck ) was a German teacher.

Life

origin

Bussenius came from an old Hanoverian family. Since he lost his father, a pharmacist , at an early age , he was raised by his mother and grandmother.

career

He graduated from grammar school in Celle and graduated from high school at Easter 1866 . While studying philology in Göttingen , he was one of the first Hanoverians in the Prussian Army to do his military service as a one-year volunteer and returned as a vice sergeant and deputy officer .

At Easter 1870 were on Katharineum Messrs Schulamt candidate Bussenius from Celle and the seminarian of Ludwig Dillner Teacher seminar as a teaching assistant set. The former should be employed by the ordinariate of Quarta B Coetus 2 and, in addition to that class, also in Tertia B and Quinta B. Since the reopening of the Katharineum after the summer holidays Bussenius was already in July convened , Mayor Theodor Curtius passed the battalion on July 23, had been the candidate represented Carl J.

In the Franco-Prussian War , in which Bussenius served in the 11th Company , Karl Peter Klügmann , Carl Tesdorpf and Heinrich Nupenau met on November 5, 1870 with the Lübeck battalion of the Fusiliers of the 2nd Hanseatic League , commanded by Lieutenant Colonel Julius Heinrich von Boehn Infantry regiment in Nanteuil with the detachment sent as a motorcade to Second Lieutenant Bussenius. This should transfer the detachment to the current location of the battalion. The delegates accompanied him to attend the distribution of the gifts of love to the teams . On site they met the Lübeck soldiers Vermehren, Zimmermann and Siemsen. During their stay there , rumors of the Paris capitulation spread.

Attack of the Lübeck battalion in the battle of Loigny

On the morning of December 2, 1870, Hugo von Kottwitz , who was appointed commander of the Hanseatic Brigade for the duration of the mobile relationship on July 18, 1870 , stood before the battalion before the battle of Loigny and spurred it on with the request “the bravery of the Hanseatic League remember! ”. The battalion, coming from Goury Castle , formed the right flank of the attack against Loigny , while the other battalions made front against Neuvillers, heading north and overran the surprised French of the Bourdillon Brigade from their flank. These fled to the place Fougeu and were also expelled from it. The battalion's most valuable possession, the flag, was damaged by a hit.

Hermann de Boor recorded the attack with his actors in a painting around 1875.

When the III. Battalion of the Infantry Regiment No. 76 was later converted to the 2nd Battalion of the 3rd Hanseatic Infantry Regiment No. 162 , this event, and thus General von Kottwitz as part of it, formed the identity-giving myth of the regiment.

In May 1871 the General Command rejected the application by the Liibeck school deputation for the reserve officer to be released for school service at the Katharineum. The battalion returned to the Hanseatic city on June 18, after a violent thunderstorm had fallen the previous night, what was now known as imperial weather . Shortly after three, the station received the news that the three trains coming from Ratzeburg had just left the station in Blankensee . A little later, to the sounds of the watch on the Rhine , the first train pulled by the decorated locomotive “Strasbourg” arrived in Lübeck.

After leaving the Perrons where they by representatives of the military authorities were welcomed, the Fusiliers took before the station line-up and were greeted by Colonel Const. Herm. v. Roëll, garrison elder, welcomed back home. Then they passed the trellis of the trades and marched through the Holstentor , which was worn in the wreath for the occasion , along the Trave , up the Beckergrube , along the Breite Straße , past the above Mengstraße designed by the architect Max Grube jr. created victory column on the market .

Expectation of the victorious battalion on June 18, 1871

On the side of the renaissance pavilion was the auditorium , on the speaker's podium, where it was received by the incumbent mayor Heinrich Theodor Behn after the senior Johann Carl Lindenberg , said: “Honor to God, salvation to the fatherland, thanks to the warriors” together with the more graceful podium in front of the council scales , it formed the framework for a square in the middle of the square for the formation of the troops and their trades. When these arrived, they were received with the singing prayer , written by Müller von der Werras and set to music by Franz Abt .

With the acquired Iron Cross II. Class, Bussenius retired from military service on June 21 and began to work again in the Katharineum on June 23.

On the 25th anniversary of the Battle of Loigny , the Senate invited Alfred von Waldersee ( IX. AK in Altona ), Ernst von Petersdorff ( 17th ID in Schwerin ) and Maximilian von Fragstein and Niemsdorff ( 33rd IB in Altona) as guests of honor. Among the veterans of the Lübeck battalion were Lieutenant General Eduard von Jena , Major General Wilhelm von Livonius , Lieutenant Colonel v. Werthern or Prime Lieutenant Bussenius, who was on leave , appeared. Even Alexander von Linsingen had appeared as a former commander of the battalion. As a celebratory gift from the committee, all guests received a song book written by Supreme Court Judge Gustav Hansen , from which all the songs sung that evening were taken. When Bussenius later summarized the mood with the representatives of the writing guild, he also pointed out that Hansen had also been a campaign participant from Lübeck.

In August, 1871 Bussenius was approved by the University in Jena for his dissertation "Comparison of the Valerius Flaccus " Dr. phil. PhD.

The Senate promoted Bussenius to senior teacher on March 2, 1872 . The Easter program of the Katharineum this year included his treatise "De Valerii Flacci in adhibendis comparationibus usu."

In the private school , which was the so-called candidate school at the beginning of Heinrich Lindenberg's leadership , he founded a Progymnasium which, under Bussenius, was also awarded the title of Progymnasium by the high school authorities .

The students have so far been able to move to the Quarta after visiting the institution and to the Tertia since 1872, so they spent seven years here to change the Katharineum. Due to the increased number of pupils and the expanded offer, the preparatory school moved from Johannisstrasse 15 to its own rooms at Fleischhauerstrasse 67 on October 14, 1872 .

As Lindenberg after his election sermon as the new owner of the vacant pastorate in the belonging to the Lübeck countryside village Nusse was appointed, was entrusted Bussenius, who had since March 24, at school, on April 1, 1874, the management of the school. He expanded the institution by adding an additional class wing and a gym in the school yard and adapted the curriculum to that of the Katharineum. In that year, the institute closed the summer semester with 249 students and accepted 21 new students in the winter semester and 16 in the following year.

With the appearance of Bussenius, who appeared on the first day in his uniform with the Iron Cross , a new era arrived with Professors Breier, Holm, Prien, Mantels and Dettmer, who belonged to the Momms type .

Walks in the woods through the Lauerholz , as well as the annual school festivals in the forest hall in Schwartau, were an integral part of the school year. The high point of each year was when Bussenius in uniform with an Iron Cross cast a spell over his students on March 22nd, the Emperor's birthday , with stories about his war experiences .

The pre-school of the Katharineum had developed into a higher private school for boys in 1879 and into a higher boys ' school in 1895 .

The institution enjoyed until after Schleswig-Holstein and Mecklenburg in, especially in preparation for the Katharineum, the greatest popularity . However, it was also visited by numerous sons of so-called Germans abroad , as well as young South Americans and Mexicans to acquire “German” education . The teaching staff attached particular importance to the individual student and their individual training.

On March 24, 1899, the 25th anniversary of the head of the school was celebrated. In the morning, Rudolf Deecke gave the prologue to the students and the teaching staff before they went to the festively decorated room of the Quarta to celebrate. In the evening he was taken to the ballroom of the casino . There, under the direction of the Chief Public Prosecutor Lienau, the celebration that lasted until the early morning took place. When Lübeck's state school system was further expanded, Bussenius closed his institution.

In September 1900 Bussenius was elected senior teacher at the Realschule ( later the Johanneum ) for Easter 1901 . As at his Progymnasium, he enjoyed grateful admiration from his students.

In 1903 Bussenius was a senior teacher at the grammar school and the secondary school and from 1909 also at the second girls' middle school.

Because of an increasing hearing impairment , Bussenius took leave of absence on the urgent advice of his family doctor in autumn 1912 and retired six months later .

In place of the outgoing Rector Joh. Burow, Bussenius was elected to the high school college in 1880.

The Senate in 1902 awarded the top teachers Benda, Bussenius, Giske , mountain, Hoyer and Reusch the title Professor .

After the death of Wilhelm Mantels in 1879 the board of directors of the seminar elected Bussenius as his successor. Here he also taught history .

In the marble hall of the Society for the Promotion of Charitable Activities , Bussenius gave a much-noticed lecture about his experiences in the campaign following its meeting on January 30, 1872 . In 1877 he was proposed as head of the gymnasium. At the Society's meeting on March 5, 1878, he was proposed for election on the 26th to elect an auditor for the cash account. For the election of the new head of the public library in place of the outgoing senior teacher Ludwig Mollwo, two more Bussenius were proposed on March 10, 1891. Bussenius was proposed as a candidate for the election of the new head of the "Paintings, Copper Engravings and Plaster Casts" collection on January 26, 1892. On November 8, 1898, he became the head of the society in place of the outgoing Mollwo. When he left this position on November 8, 1904, he was elected archivist .

At its general assembly on October 3, 1877 , the Lübeck Schiller Foundation confirmed Bussenius to its board. At the General Assembly on 17 October 1880 he resigned in rotation again from the board.

In August 1880 Bussenius was elected a member of the parish committee of the St. Marien parish . He was elected to the board of directors in 1898. In place of Mollwo, who had moved out of the parish , Bussenius was elected in March 1899 as head of the community and recorder . and confirmed it the following year.

Bussenius represented the board of the “Public Reading Hall in Lübeck” association.

Bussenisus was an active member of the “Cornucopia” lodge for many years.

After retiring from active professional life, Bussenius devoted himself to researching his family history, aroused his interest by old family letters. Thanks to his historical knowledge and fortunate circumstances, he was able to trace his ancestors back to the 12th century and write them down. In the middle of the 17th century, Henning Busse, Pastor zu Schönberg, latinized his name according to academic custom and called himself Henricus Bussenius from then on. The family tree shows 27 genders in a straight line.

Around 1550, a bus in Lüchow married the last heir to the old Wulhase family. The Family Vicariate Foundation fell to him. This was transformed by him into a scholarship institution for theology students, which the senior managed together with the provost of Lüchow.

Bussenius described the extensive family stories in two copies. Further studies led him to a source research at the beginning of 1924, about the Saxon family of Billunger . His maternal grandmother's family, born v. Rautenkranz, he traced back to that.

family

After the war Bussenius married Anna Johanna Wilhelmine , née Longerich. Your father, Joh. Wilh. Hubert Longerich, was the owner company W. Longerich Commission warehouse of firewood in Enger Krambuden 253 and lived in the Ratzeburger Allee 12. In Timmendorf had the family's hilltop a wide view of the sea bidding " Villa spent Longerich" and Bussenius there until 1923 Summer. At the Progymnasium she had earned their love for the children through faithful care .

Bussenius became the father of five children who were more than anything to him besides the fatherland. Two of his three sons learned to appreciate the merchant class and went to overseas countries, America and India , where they acquired positions of respect for themselves and still stayed in contact with their parents through lively correspondence . The youngest son stayed in the world war .

When Bussenius died after a long illness, his daughter Clara, a private teacher , was still living in his parents' house on Viktoriastrasse.
