Liber amicorum - Nordrhein-Westfalen

Manuskripte und Urkunden – Senger war, wie sein Vater Gerhard Friedrich Senger (1710-1776), Pfarrer in Castrop und ab 1792 in selber Funktion in Bladenhorst. - Die im Anhang durch ein Register erschlossenen, meist zur Zeit von Sengers Theologiestudium an der alten, 1818 aufgelösten Uni Duisburg entstandenen Einträge u.a. von: Ludwig Heinrich Lambert Bordelius (*1766), Heinrich Wilhelm Diehl aus Westhofen (1765-1811, Pastor), Gottlieb Christoph Hengstenberg (1763-1841, Pfarrer), Heinrich von Hüls aus Mörs (1763-1834, Pfarrer), Daniel Eberhard Otterbein aus Emmerich (1766-1823, Prediger), Bernhard August Schelten (*1762), Carl Ludwig u. Johann Philipp von Syberg u.v.m. - Tls. mit Symbolen von Studentenverbindungen, u.a. der Studentenloge Libertas des Amicistenordens. - Besonders ist das Aquarell von C.W. Kuhlenthal (dat. Sep. 1786), das - nebst zweizeiligen Vers über die Philister - rund um den Tisch versammelte Studenten zeigt, und so das Studenten- und Verbindungsleben der kaum mehr bekannten Uni dokumentiert. - Spät. Monogrammstempel, wenige Bll. fehlend oder mit Ausschnitt, durchgehend etw. fingerfleckig, tls. verblasst, sonst insg. gut.

Manuscripts – North Rhine-Westphalia - -Liber amicorum of theology student Ludwig Wilhelm Senger with 109 entries, 7 watercolours and coloured drawings (4 silhouettes) as well as 2 mounted engravings. Contemp. leather with rich gilt embossing (rubbed, bumped, upper joint chipped, corners and edges with small defects in the cover). - Like his father Gerhard Friedrich Senger (1710-1776), Senger was a pastor in Castrop and, from 1792, in Bladenhorst. The entries, most of which were made during Senger's theological studies at the old University of Duisburg, which was dissolved in 1818, are indexed in the appendix and include entries by: as listed above. - Some feature symbols of student fraternities, including the Libertas student lodge of the Amicist Order. The watercolour by C.W. Kuhlenthal (dated September 1786) is particularly noteworthy. It shows students gathered around a table, accompanied by a two-line verse about philistines, thus documenting student and fraternity life at the now largely forgotten university. - Later monogram stamp, a few sheets missing or with cut-outs, fingerstained throughout, partly faded, otherwise in good condition.
