By Jürgen Backhaus

Ju¨ rgen G. Backhaus 1 Johann Heinrich Gottlob (von) Justi used to be born in 1702 in Bru¨ cken in Prussia (county of Sangerhausen), studied legislation and cameral sciences in Wittenberg and Jena, but needed to go away the college, entered the Prussian army carrier, was once captured in the course of the Austrian warfare of succession via the Austrians yet escaped to Leipzig (Saxony) the place he studied mineral sciences. In 1750 he used to be known as to a chair ‘‘Cameral Sciences and Rhetorics’’ on the new Theresian Academy of Knights in Vienna. There, he gave very important inaugural lectures that are the focus of this e-book. In 1754, Justi was once appointed a mineral counsellor in Gottingen ¨ (Hanover), and lectured on the Saxonian college on either nation sciences and usual sciences. In 1762, Frederic II (the nice) of Prussia appointed him Prussian captain (highest supervisory place) of mines and basic manager of fiscal-mineral actions. In 1768 he used to be accused of embezzlement, and prior to he may well turn out his innocence, he died in 1771 as a prisoner within the (decaying) castle of Ku¨ strin. because of his dying, the case was once by no means made up our minds. yet Frederic had evidently made his personal choice. whilst he appointed Justi, the appointee mentioned that he used to be struggling with susceptible eye sight and will no longer effectively fee the bookkeeping. Frederic spoke back: you've got vulnerable eyes yet you will have a brilliant brain. I shall placed eyes by way of your side.
