Life

Sebald Brendel attended grammar school in Würzburg (today: Wirsberg-Gymnasium ) and enrolled at the University of Würzburg to begin studying theology; previously he had already been trained as a theology candidate in the spiritual seminary. Because the diocese of Würzburg was attached to the ecclesiastical province of Bamberg after secularization through the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss in 1803 , and this resulted in a change in the state structure and at the same time the university was reorganized, he decided to change the subject of law after three years of study ; The lectures by Heinrich Eberhard Gottlob Paulus and Friedrich Wilhelm Joseph Schelling were also decisive here .

As court master of Count Karl von Rotenhan , he attended the universities of Erlangen , Landshut , Leipzig and Heidelberg in 1809 .

In August 1812 his doctorate he in Landshut Dr. jur. and in the following year the grand ducal government of Baden authorized him to give private lectures in Heidelberg. He then gave lectures on legal philosophy , criminal law studies , on the comparative history of the constitution and legislation of different peoples, mainly oriental. However, he only carried out this activity for a short time in order to deal with the writing of technical papers and treatises in Bamberg in 1813.

He stayed in Vienna in 1814 during the Congress of Vienna and published various works, in particular a paper on charitable foundations, for which he received much recognition.

On 23 June 1817 he was appointed Ambassador Extraordinary and on 13 January 1818 full professor of law at the University of Würzburg and contributed to jurisprudence, German history, legal history , the teaching of public justice , international law and canon law , police science and diplomacy ago . His main subject was canon law and in 1823 he wrote a handbook of Catholic and Protestant canon law. This manual, however, aroused the displeasure of the Catholic Church and was indexed a year after its publication by decree of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith .

During the Hep-Hep riots in 1819, he was suspected of being bribed by Jews to publicly advocate their equality; In several articles he protested against the views of his university colleague Wilhelm Joseph Behr and demanded the receipt of the Jewish edict . This initially led to death threats and shortly thereafter to several assassinations.

He was a member of the university's panel of judgments, the academic senate , the administrative committee and the university court .

In 1832 he became a court assessor at the court of appeal in Amberg and was given the title of council.
