Life

Dresig was born in Vorberg in Niederlausitz. From 1719 to 1724 he attended the Princely School St. Augustin in Grimma . From 1724 he studied at the University of Leipzig , which he completed in 1730 with a master's degree and then with a habilitation. From 1734 to 1742 he was vice principal at the Thomasschule in Leipzig , where Johann Sebastian Bach was also active as Thomaskantor . Dresig took over his duties to teach Latin for 50 thalers (half of Bach's salary).

Together with Johann Erhard Kapp , he led a literary disputation against Christian Siegmund Georgi and his criticism and exegesis of the New Testament.

Together with his cousin Adam Heinrich Dresig he wrote the article in 1738: Sigism. Frider. Dresigii Epistola animadversiones in Fabri Thesaurum complectens: qua viro clarissimo atque amplissimo domino Adamo Henrico Dresigio .

Dresig died by suicide in Leipzig in 1742.
