Andreas Röschlaub

Andreas Roesch leaves ( born October 21, 1768 in Lichtenfels, † July 7, 1835 in Oberdischingen ) was a German physician and natural philosopher.

Life

Rösch leaves, coming from a humble background, started in 1786 his studies of theology in Bamberg. In 1787 he switched to medicine and studied this subject except in Bamberg and Würzburg. In 1795 he received his doctorate at the University of Bamberg with his dissertation De febri Fragmentum.

In 1796 he received an associate professor of medicine at the University of Bamberg and served since 1797 as assessor of medical school. In 1798 he became a full professor of pathology and medicine at the Bamberger General Hospital and was there since 1799 second doctor next Adalbert Friedrich Marcus ( 1753-1818 ), the personal physician of Franz Ludwig von Erthal. This had been elected in the same year 1799 Prince-Bishop of Würzburg and Bamberg.

1802 followed Rösch leaves a position at the University of Landshut, where he worked as professor of pathology and medicine, as well as a general practitioner until 1824. Here he acquired a great reputation among his followers, but it grew him a strong opposition by the city magistrate and church circles.

As he urged a magnification and reforming the clinic, he was suspended by the Ministry for two years from the service. After laying, the University of Landshut to Munich in 1826 Rösch deciduous They hired again as a full professor of medicine.

Teaching

Rösch leaves counted in his time to the most influential and controversial doctors. Already in his dissertation he dealt with the concept of the Scottish physician John Brown, which he in his first major writing further resulted in 1798 studies on the pathogeny. He developed his own arousal theory, which replaced under the influence of Friedrich Wilhelm Joseph Schelling and Johann Gottlieb Fichte Browns mechanical model by a dynamic process-oriented.

He understood the medicine as a whole, emphasizing the interaction between organism and environment. Accordingly, he demanded the union of physiology and pathology as well as their connection with the therapy. He called for close cooperation between scientific theory and clinical and fell so in contrast to the traditional, based on Hippocratic medicine.

In 1799 he founded the magazine magazine for the perfection of theoretical and practical medicine. It was published until 1809 and served as a discussion forum for new medical opinions. Found support Rösch foliage especially in a young generation of physiologists, while representatives of traditional medicine, especially Christoph William hoof, his views met with suspicion.

Schelling came in 1799 for a semester to Bamberg to know Rösch foliage. It first developed a deep friendship and mutually beneficial cooperation, but already in 1804 an estrangement in the differing opinions about the basics of medicine took place. However, the had already been preceded by an estrangement between AF Marcus and Rösch foliage. Rösch foliage was already in 1802 accepted a call to the University of Landshut. The alienation had surrendered at the obvious conflicts between Rösch leaves and Joseph Reubel one hand, and Ignaz Dollinger on the other hand, the successor Rösch foliage in Bamberg, where Marcus probably sided with Reubel and Dollinger. Reubel and Dollinger had too much go into it, according to Rosch leaves in the natural-philosophical view of Schelling and thus removed from the also pragmatically oriented medical understanding Rösch foliage. 1805 Rösch leaves came out in open on Schelling's philosophy of nature. It took a while, founded on natural philosophy, scientific clinical medicine as a propaedeutic, but in addition also a practice in which the natural philosophy should be more in the background ( theoretical and pragmatic school). But that took neither Marcus nor Schelling back.

In the book edited by him a new magazine for clinical medicine (1816 /17) sat Rösch foliage with earlier he represents viewpoints and the Brownianism and the natural philosophical school critically. In his last years he was largely confined to practical medicine and clinical teaching. His ideas were particularly continued by his pupil Johann Lukas Schönlein.
