Life

Born in Hanover in 1549 - a few years after the "Reformation from below" introduced by Dietrich von Arnsborg as the son of Cyriaeus , Wichmann Schulrabe first attended the school in Hanover's old town, then the one in Braunschweig , where he returned to Hanover to work as a collaborator after good performance was called. A year later he began to study theology at the Leucorea in Wittenberg , where he received his master's degree in 1549 .

In 1574 Schulrabe was appointed rector of the city school in Hanover and preacher at the local market church . But then he was in a Denunziationsschrift by the Lutheran set Spiritual Ministry accused, he seie sacramentarians and Calvinist . In addition to Vitus Buscher and others, his accusers also included the preacher, contemporary witness and chronicler of the plague, which was also rampant in Hanover at that time, but Ludolf Long Last was probably actually driven by the fear of devilry and sorcery, because he also denounced at least two Witches, which for "[...] the Wisselsche" and "[...] the Hertsche" soon resulted in terrible torments and a terrible end in each case. Just two years after taking office in Hanover, Schulrabe left Hanover and became a preacher in Pattensen .

Wichmann Schulrabe was later superintendent in Ronnenberg . A colleague of Wichmann's had an epitaph of the clergyman set up next to the altar in Ronnenberg's Michaeliskirche during his lifetime , as the Latin inscription shows. The inscription refers to Wichmann Schulrabe as

"[...] Shepherds of Christ's sheep and, as loyal superintendents, legitimately subordinated to this and neighboring villages."

The Barsinghausen monastery, Gehrden, Hohenbostel, Kirchdorf, the Vogtei Langenhagen and Lenthe also belonged to these localities. Leveste, Linden, Neustadt in front of Hanover, Wennigsen monastery and Wettbergen. A Jewish place of prayer, which was built in the Neustadt in front of Hanover in the 17th century, caused an uproar among church dignitaries in the Calenberg region. Under the direction of Wichmann Schulrabe, they complained to the Protestant consistory in Wolfenbüttel that the Jews had built a "temple" "on the Neustadt in front of Hanover". Wichmann Schulrabe wrote to the consistory on February 1, 1613. His complaint stated that it was not until 1593 that "the temple was destroyed and abolished" in the Calenberger Neustadt near Hanover. The Duke had "graciously assigned the Jewish houses to the Church" there. The result was that in the same year this second Jewish house of worship in Neustadt near Hanover was also destroyed.

Schulrabe died in Ronnenberg in 1623, a few years after the start of the Thirty Years' War .

Wichmann Schulrabe is in contact with numerous co-authors of writings that are listed in the directory of prints from the 16th century (VD 16) and VD 17 published in the German-speaking area.
