Life

Nothing is known about Philipp Reinhard Vitriarius' first career. It is possible that he is related to the Oppenheim pastor Johannes Vitriarius. On July 16, 1664, he enrolled at the University of Strasbourg , was here on December 2, 1672 a candidate for law and completed a law degree under Johann Heinrich Böckler (1611–1672). He received his legal exam on December 11, 1672, appeared on February 22, 1673 with the treatise Theses de Jure antecessoris in successorem , and in April 1673 became a private lecturer at the Strasbourg University.

In 1675 he took over a chair for international law at the Geneva Academy , where he had received the citizenship of the city. On September 25, 1682 he became professor of German constitutional law as the successor to Johannes Friedrich Böckelmann at the University of Leiden . Here he also took part in the organizational tasks of the university and was rector of the alma mater in 1693/94, 1702/03, and 1713/14 . For health reasons he resigned his professorship on October 21, 1719, which his son, Johann Jacob Vitriarius, took over from his marriage to Renee Dupuy (* 1656) .

Vitriarius drew a large number of students from the German Empire to the University of Leiden. Especially people from the Austrian parts of the country. His most important main work is the Justinianische Institutionennachschlagewerk Institutiones iuris publici , which was first published in Speier in 1683 and in 1686 under the name of Nicolaus Danckwerths. This work was based on the same institutional scheme by Johann Rhetz . It was founded by Johann Friedrich Pfeffinger expanded (1667-1730) to a four-volume work material and made deducible by registers. It then appeared under the title illustratus seu institutiones juris publici in Freiburg in 1691 and finally as Corpus iuris publici (4th vol.) Gotha 1712–1730. In addition, many other people had published the work. Including Jakob Carl Spener . Although the work was important for some contemporary witnesses, it was replaced by other reference works of a more scientific order soon after his death.
