Christian August Lobeck (; 5 June 1781 – 25 August 1860) was a German classical scholar. Lobeck was born at Naumburg. After studying at the universities of Jena and Leipzig, he became ''Privatdozent'' at the University of Wittenberg in 1802, and in 1810 was appointed to a professorship there. Four years later, he accepted the chair of rhetoric and ancient literature at Königsberg, which he occupied till within two years of his death. His literary activities were devoted to the history of Greek religion and to the Greek language and literature. His greatest work, ''Aglaophamus'' (1829), maintains, against the views put forward by G. F. Creuzer in his ''Symbolik'' (1810–1823), that the religion of the Greek mysteries (especially those of Eleusis) did not essentially differ from the national religion; that it was not esoteric, and that the priests as such neither taught nor possessed any higher knowledge of God; that the Oriental elements were a later importation. Lobeck's edition of the ''Ajax'' of Sophocles (1809)〔A second and a third edition of ''Ajax'' appeared in Leipzig 1835 and Berlin 1866 respectively. The full details of the third one are as follows: Sophoclis Aiax, commentario perpetuo illustravit Christ. Augustus Lobeck, editio tertia, Berolini: apud Weidmannos 1866〕 had gained him a reputation a scholar and critic; his ''Phrynichus'' (1820), ''Paralipomena grammaticae Graecae'' (vol. I–II; 1837),〔The full title is as follows: ''Paralipomena grammaticae Graecae: pars prior, qua continentur dissertationes de praeceptis euphonicis, de nominibus monosyllabis, de adjectivis immobilibus, de substantivorum primae declinationis paragoge ionica; pars posterior, qua continentur dissertationes de nominibus substantivi et adjectivi generis ambiguis, de nominum in -ma exeuntium formatione, de motione adjectivorum minus mobilium, de figura etymologica''; Lipsiae: apud Weidmannos 1837.〕 ''Pathologiae sermonis Graeci prolegomena'' (1843), and ''Pathologiae Graeci sermonis elementa'' (vol. I–II; 1853–62) reveal his wide acquaintance with Greek grammar. He had little sympathy with comparative philology, holding that it needed a lifetime to acquire a thorough knowledge of a single language. See the article by L. Friedländer in ''Allgemeine deutsche Biographie''; Conrad Bursian's ''Geschichte der klassischen Philologie in Deutschland'' (1883); Lehrs, ''Populäre Aufsätze aus dem Altertum'' (2nd ed., Leipzig, 1875); Lüdwich, ''Ausgewählte Briefe von und an Chr. Aug. Lobeck und K. Lehrs (1894); also JE Sandys, ''History of Classical Scholarship'' (1st ed. 1908). ==Notes== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Christian Lobeck」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
