Thomas Alois Reischl

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Thomas Alois Reischl (* 1760 in Salzburg ; † December 22, 1835 there ) was an Austrian city judge and stenographer .

Life

Few facts are known about Reischl's origin and life. In 1788 he was "a real auditor lieutenant at the high princely council of war". In 1815 he was named as " City Court Assessor " in Salzburg and in 1818 the first "Registrant at the City and Regional Court".

After Reischl got to know the shorthands of Carl Gottlieb Horstig and Friedrich Mosengeil , he gave lessons in this subject at the “ Archbishop's Seminary in Salzburg ”. In 1808 he is said to have published a book for self-teaching for business people and students under the pseudonym R **** , which contains a change in the Mosengeil system with regard to the vowel designation. The new system could not prevail. In the literature it is doubted by the work of Anton Hittmair that Reischl was the author of this work. Hittmair named Michael Riehl as the real author. Karl Faulmann was not of this opinion.
