Bibliography

Morhof was born at Wismar. He first studied jurisprudence and then literae humaniores at the University of Rostock,[1] where his elegant Latin versification procured for him in 1660 the chair of poetry.[2] In 1665 he moved to the University of Kiel as professor of eloquence and poetry; this chair he exchanged for that of history in 1673. He died at Lübeck.[3]

Of his numerous writings, the most important are Unterricht von der deutschen Sprache und Poesie (1682), the first attempt in Germany at a systematic survey of European literature, and Polyhistor, sive de auctorum notitia et rerum commentarii (Lübeck, 1688, not completed till 1707; 4th ed., 1747), a kind of encyclopaedia of the knowledge and learning of his time.[3]
