Ludwig Erdwin Seyler (15 May 1758 – 26 October 1836; also ''Ludewig'' and ''Edwin'', known as ''Ludwig E. Seyler'' or ''L.E. Seyler'') was a German merchant, banker and grand burgher of the city-state of Hamburg, a co-owner for 48 years (1788–1836) and head (1790–1836) of the Hamburg firm Joh. Berenberg, Gossler & Co. (Berenberg Bank) and a member of the Hanseatic Berenberg-Gossler-Seyler banking dynasty. Seyler was one of the first German merchants and bankers to establish trade relations with the United States and East Asia. He served as President of the Commerz-Deputation, one of the city-state's main political bodies, and as a member of the Hamburg Parliament.〔(Johann Heinrich Goßler ) II, ''Neue Deutsche Biographie''〕〔J. G. Gallois, ''Geschichte der Stadt Hamburg: Spezielle Geschichte der Stadt seit 1814'', Vol. 3 ("Am 26sten October starb einer der Hauptzierden unserer Börse, L. E. Seyler, seit beinahe 50 Jahren Associe von Berenberg, Goßler und Co., ein gleichmäßig als Kaufmann wie als Mensch achtungswerther Charakter")〕 Ludwig Seyler was a son of the famous theatre director Abel Seyler and a son-in-law of the bankers Johann Hinrich Gossler and Elisabeth Berenberg. ==Background and early life==
Ludwig Seyler was born in Hamburg and was the son of the Swiss-born Hamburg banker turned theatre director Abel Seyler, co-owner of the bank Seyler & Tillemann, who later became "the leading patron of German theatre" in his lifetime and who founded the Seyler Theatre Company,〔Wilhelm Kosch, "Seyler, Abel", in ''Dictionary of German Biography'', eds. Walther Killy and Rudolf Vierhaus, Vol. 9, Walter de Gruyter, 2005, ISBN 3110966298, p. 308〕 and Sophie Elisabeth Andreae (1730–1764), a daughter of the wealthy Hanover court pharmacist Leopold Andreae (1686–1730), owner of the Andreae & Co. pharmacy. On his father's side he was descended from many of Basel's leading patrician families, including Seyler, Burckhardt, Socin, Merian and Faesch. After his mother died in 1764, he grew up in Hanover with his uncle, the noted Enlightenment natural scientist J.G.R. Andreae. His father remarried in 1772 to Friederike Sophie Seyler, Germany's leading actress of the second half of the 18th century and the author of the opera ''Oberon'', a major influence on the libretto of ''The Magic Flute''. Ludwig Seyler's sister Sophie Seyler (1762–1833) was married to the Sturm und Drang poet Johann Anton Leisewitz, the author of ''Julius of Tarent''.
