Rudolf Knopf

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rudolf Knopf (born October 26, 1874 in Biala (Galicia; today Bielsko-Biała , Poland), † January 19, 1920 in Bonn ) was a Protestant theologian and scholar.

Life

In 1900, Knopf received his habilitation in Marburg. After he had received an associate's position in Marburg in 1906 and at the University of Vienna in 1907 and was appointed full professor a year later, he was offered a position at the University of Bonn in 1914 , where he taught until his death.

He was best known for his paper on Christian communities in the post-apostolic period, published in 1905, which Martin Hengel described in his first volume of his four-volume presentation of early Christianity as "not yet outdated even after a hundred years".
