1. Andrae,Johann
Valentin: Born Aug,17 1586 in Herrenberg. His mother,
Maria Moser was daughter is ggg-daughter of Johanna Hirschmann, married
to Hans Ludwig Gaisberger in Scho
rndorf.
After the death of his father, his mother moved to Tuebingen, where she
worked as court apothecary. He entered the University of Tuebingen in 1601,
from which he was expelled in 1607. After extensive "Wanderjahre", he returned
to Tuebingen, studied Theology and was ordained in 1614. In that time,
three books - "Fama fraternitatis, dess loeblichen Ordens des C.R.", published
1614 in Cassel, the second one "Confession", 1615 Frankfurt, and "Die alchemische
Hochzeit des Christian Rosenkreuz", Frankfurt 1615, were published and
it is widely believed, that Andrae was the Author. Historical Fact is,
that this Publications established a secret sect, called the rosecrucians.
This movement spread over all europe and finally ended in London with the
foundation of the masonic movement.He was pastor in Calw from 1620-1638,
Hofprediger in Stuttgart from 1639-1650, where he died in 1654. Every Brother
is invited to discuss this subject.
2.Hegel, Georg Wilhelm Friederich (1770-1831),
his relations with the Hirschmann Family are through Johann Hirschmann
(City Chronist in Schorndorf, 1545-1603). His daughter Kathar
ina,
married Veit Ensslin - which connects to the Hegel Family. Hegel's "idealistic
philosophy" explained the world as the expression of a higher spiritual
reality which develops in a dialectical process that swings from thesis
to antithesis and back again towards a higher level of synthesis. He was
a major influence on subsequent idealist thinkers and on such philosophers
as Kierkegaard and Satre, his most far-reaching effect was his influence
on Karl Marx, who substituted materialism for idealism in his formulation
of dialectical materialism.
According to his philosophy, one concept (thesis) inevitably generates its opposite (antithesis); their interaction leads to a new concept (synthesis), which in turn becomes the thesis of a new tirad. Hegel's application of the dialectic to the concept of conflict of cultures stimulated historical analysis and in the political arena, made him a hero to those working for a unified Germany.
