Marianus Brockie

Marianus Brockie (* 1687 in Edinburgh, † December 2, 1755 in Regensburg, actually Daniel Brockie ) was a Scottish Catholic theologian, philosopher and Benedictine.

Life

Marinus Brockie was born in 1687 in Edinburgh, the son of George and his wife Isabel Brockies Farquharson. He spent his childhood in Arbroath and went to Regensburg in 1705. He studied philosophy in the Franciscan monastery in Regensburg and then theology at St. Emmeram monastery. In Schottenkloster Regensburg in 1708 he put his religious profession and studied theology from 1711 at the University of Erfurt. Two years later he received his ordination. After he finished his studies at the November 7, 1714, he first gave lectures in philosophy until he became a full professor of philosophy in Erfurt on 1717. 1719 appointed prior of the monastery of Erfurt, Scots, he turned against the Jansenists and Jesuits, so this Brockie faced hostile. Especially at the University of Erfurt, he sat down against them, as a result, had the Jesuit Anton Gruber left the university. Thus, the arguments ended, he was sent to Scotland in 1727 Brockie. Although he was born four years later returned to Regensburg, was not much later, back to Scotland. With five other Scottish Catholic theologians in 1739 he moved permanently back to Regensburg. In the next few years he wrote several works. The then abbot Stuart sat very against Brockie one, but even after it was passed in 1753, the dispute did not end. This loaded Brockie physically but also mentally, and finally he died on 2 December 1755 following a stroke.
