Theodor Hansen (clergyman, 1837)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Theodor Heinrich Fürchtegott Hansen (born April 5, 1837 in Kiel , † August 1, 1923 in Oldenburg (Oldb) ) was a German Evangelical Lutheran clergyman and senior church councilor in Oldenburg.

Life

Theodor Hansen was a son of the pastor Christian Hansen. He grew up on the Hallig Langeness , where he learned Hallig Frisian . He used his knowledge later, probably as a schoolboy or as a young adult, to write two Hallig Frisian comedies, Jö Käst (The Box) and Pitje Patje! (Nonsense). They were preserved in Hermann Möller's estate and were published in 2012.

After initially attending school on the Hallig, Hansen was sent to the Kiel School of Academics , which he went through until he graduated from high school at Easter 1856. He studied Protestant theology at the Universities of Kiel , Göttingen , Basel and again Kiel. After his official examination, which he passed in 1861 with the second character with very laudable distinction , he worked from 1863 to 1865 as a repetiteur in Göttingen. In December 1866 he was appointed archdeacon to St. Nikolai in Kiel . After the reorganization of the Kiel congregations, he became pastor for the Holy Spirit District. On May 6, 1874, he was appointed church provost of the Propstei Kiel (city).

On May 1st, 1879, he moved to Oldenburg as a secret councilor and court preacher. Associated with this, he was the first spiritual member of the Upper Church Council and the Evangelical High School College. Since the president of the Oberkirchenrat was a lawyer, Hansen was the leading clergyman of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Oldenburg . On February 8, 1883, he received the title of Oberhofprediger and in 1887 the title of Privy Councilor of Churches. In December 1916 he retired; Heinrich Tilemann was his successor .
