-
A German historian; born at Balgheim, July 7, 1764; died near Ansbach, March 26, 1835. His principal works are: "Historic Development of the German Tax System" (1793); "Modern History of the Principality of Bayreuth" (3 vols., 1798-1811); "History of the Jesuits in Bavaria" (1819). His posthumous "Memoirs of the Ritter von Lang" (2 vols., 1841) made a great noise when first published; but they are to be used with discretion.
