(better known as Hoffmann von Fallersleben), a German theologian, was born at Fallersleben, Luneburg, April 2, 1798. After studying at Gottingen and Bonn, he devoted himself at first to theology, but afterwards betook himself entirely to the history of literature. He died January 20, 1874. Hoffmann edited, in connection with Endlicher, Fragmenta Theotisca Versionis Antiquissimae Ev. S. Matthaei et Aliquot Homiliarum (Vienna, 1834): Williram's Uebersetzung und Auslegung des Hohenliedes (Breslau, 1827): Geschichte des deutschen Kirchenliedes bis auf Luther's Zeit (1832; 3d ed. 1861): Ringwaldt und Benj. Schmolcke (1833). See Winer, Handbuch der deutschen, Lit. 1:67; 2:287, 288; Zuchold, Bibl. Theol. 1:569. (B.P.)
