an eminent German theologian and writer, was born at Hildesheim May 1, 1780. He studied theology at Gö ttingen, where he was made a professor in 1805. He afterwards became successively professor in the University of Heidelberg in 1807, and professor in the university, and, in 1810, minister of the Trinity Church of Berlin, as colleague of the renowned Schleiermacher. He died in the capital of Prussia, May 31, 1846. Marheineke's studies were especially directed towards Christian symbolics and dogmatics, which he treated from the speculative stand-point of Daub and Hegel. He was, indeed, the head of that fraction of the Hegelian school which asserted the coincidence of the Hegelian philosophy with Christianity. He was equally distant from the strict orthodox views held by the Lutheran, as from Rationalism, or from the old supernaturalism. He wrote Gesch. d. christlichen Moral seit d. Anfange d. Reformation (Nuremb. 1805): — Universalhistorie d. Christenthums (Erlangen, 1806): — Christliche Symbolik (Heidelb. 1810-13, 3 vols.): — Grundriss d.
