Görres, (Johann) Joseph von
Born January 25, 1776 in Koblenz
Died January 29, 1848. German scholar and thinker. Spiritual leader of German Catholicism in the first half of the 19th century. In 1806 he moved to the University of Heidelberg, where he published the Einsiedlerzeitung (Newspaper for Hermits) with such Romantic writers as Arnim and Brentano, and wrote Die teutschen Volksbücher (The German Popular Book), a study of medieval poetry. In 1808 he returned to his hometown of Koblenz, where he studied Persian, and in 1810 published Mythengeschichte der asiatischen Welt (History of the Myths of the Asian World) (2 volumes). In 1813, he took the lead in the growing German nationalist movement with the decline of Napoleon, and in February 1814, he published Rheinischer Merkur. His innovative spirit led to its ban by the Prussian government, and in 1819, a warrant for his arrest was issued for Teutschland und die Revolution, leading him to go into exile in Strasbourg and then Switzerland. He later became politically disillusioned, converted to Catholicism, and advocated ultramontanism and mysticism. In 1827, he was invited by King Ludwig I of Bavaria to become a professor at the University of Munich. His later works include Athanasius and Die christliche Mystik (4 volumes).
