Ulrich Fabri

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ulrich Fabri (* around 1494 in Dornbirn ; † 1544 in Vienna ), humanist , poet , author and doctor , was the son of a blacksmith who lived and worked on the Steinebach parcel in Dornbirn. Ulrich Fabri also called himself Udalricus Fabri and Ulrich Faber Rhaetus and similar to point out that he comes from the old Roman province of Raetia (= Rhaetus) (correctly from a part of it, from Vorarlberg ). The surname “ Fabri ” chosen by him is a Latinization ( Traduktionym ) of the professional name blacksmith ( Latin: faber = worker, craftsman, artist, blacksmith, locksmith).

Life

He began his studies in Vienna in 1511 and was registered there as Ulricius Fabri Torenburengensis . For a short time he worked as a teacher in Klosterneuburg . He subsequently acquired the academic degree of a master's degree in philosophy in 1519 and a doctorate in medicine in 1524 . He was rector of the University of Vienna four times (see also: List of Rectors of the University of Vienna ) and after 1531 he was dean several times .

Fabri was the private tutor of the son of Johannes Cuspinian in his house built in 1510 on the stone Rössel in Singerstrasse in Vienna.

His main literary creative period was in the years 1516 to 1520/1524, during which he often appeared in journalism.

Commemoration

Ulrich Fabri was commemorated in his native Dornbirn by naming a street, Ulrich-Fabri-Straße, in the Haselstauden district .
