August Friedrich Gfrörer
Edit ProfileEducation
Obedient to the wishes of his parents, but against his own inclinations, Gfrörer devoted himself to the study of theology; was a student at the "Little Evangelical Seminary" of Tübingen from 1817-1821, and from 1821-1825 continued his studies at the higher seminary of the same place.
Career
After passing his final examinations in 1825, Gfrörer spent a year in Switzerland, during part of the time acting as companion and secretary to C. von Bonstetten (1745-1832); the year 1827 was spent chiefly in Rome. Returning to Wiirttemberg in 1828, he first undertook the duties of repetent or theological tutor in Tubingen, and afterwards accepted a curacy in Stuttgart; but having in 1830 received an appointment in the royal public library at Stuttgart, he thenceforth gave himself exclusively to literature and historical science. His first work on Philo (Philo und die judisch-alexandrinische Theosophie, 1831) was rapidly followed by an elaborate biography, in two volumes, of Gustavus Adolphus (Gustav Adolf, König der Schweden und seine Zeit, 1835-1837), and by a critical history of primitive Christianity (Kritische Geschichte des Urchristenthums, 1838). Here Gfrörer had manifested opinions unfavourable to Protestantism, which, however, were not openly avowed until fully developed in his church history (Allgemeine Kirchengeschichte, 1841-1846). In the autumn of 1846 he was appointed to the chair of history in the university of Freiburg, where he continued to teach until his death. In 1848 he sat as a representative in the Frankfurt parliament, where he supported the "High German" party, and in 1853 he publicly went over to the Church of Rome. He was a bitter opponent of Prussia and an ardent controversialist. Gfrörer died on July 6, 1861.
