Portrait of Sigmund Schott

Sigmund Hermann Eberhard Schott (born January 5, 1818 in Stuttgart ; † June 4, 1895 there ) was a lawyer, writer and member of the German Reichstag .

Life

Schott attended the Eberhard-Ludwigs-Gymnasium in Stuttgart and studied law at the Universities of Heidelberg and Tübingen from 1835 to 1838. During his studies, he became a member of the Giovannia Tübingen fraternity in 1835 and was a co-founder of the Corps Guestphalia Tübingen in 1836 . He had been a lawyer in Stuttgart since 1840.

In 1839 he published a work by Max Emanuel, Prince of Württemberg, and his friend Karl XII, King of Sweden . In 1840 he married Pauline Knosp. In 1848 he became politically active; after his brother-in-law Friedrich Römer withdrew the conference venue from the Stuttgart rump parliament , he wanted to duel with it. According to the constitution, he was not allowed to apply for a state parliament mandate as long as his father Albert Schott was a member of the state parliament. In 1850 he was elected for Freudenstadt in the constitutional state assembly of the Kingdom of Württemberg , and from 1851 to 1868 he was elected to the second chamber of the Württemberg estates for his father's former constituency, the Oberamt Böblingen . From 1868 to 1870 he was a member of the state parliament for the city of Tübingen .

In the state parliament he was particularly involved in the question of the Concordat with the Catholic Church. After the war in 1866 he took sides against the small German solution to the exclusion of Austria. He switched to the anti-Prussian People's Party and therefore ran for the constituency of Tübingen in 1868. After the war against France , he no longer applied for a mandate in the state parliament and pursued his profession.

From 1881 to 1887 he was a member of the German Reichstag for the German People's Party in the constituency of Württemberg 1 (Stuttgart city and office ). Here he engaged himself against unnecessary effort for the army. From 1887 he devoted himself exclusively to writing. In 1905, Schottstrasse in Stuttgart-Nord was named after Sigmund Schott and his father Albert Schott.

Mix-ups

In his research on Theodor Fontane , Karl Marx , Wilhelm Raabe and also in the antiquarian bookstore , the Frankfurt bank manager Sigmund Schott is often confused with the politician of the same name or the statistician of the same name, or life dates and places of work are mixed up or exchanged.
