Wenzel Trnka von Krzowitz〔Full name from Stüwe (2007, 9). The second christian name "Johann" mentioned by Link (2006, 132) is possibly a confusion with composer Wenzel Johann Trnka (b. 1782; d. after 1849)〕 (Czech: ''Václav Trnka z Křovic'';〔(Record ) at Library of Congress authority file〕 1739–1791) was a physician, professor, and amateur composer of the 18th century.〔Berke et al. (2007, 69)〕 ==Life== He was born 16 October 1739 in Tábor in Bohemia.〔Borchling (1902:119)〕 In 1769, during his medical studies, the famous physician Gerhard van Swieten named him to serve as his assistant in the military hospital (Militärkrankenhaus).〔De Luca (1778:228)〕 He received his doctorate 19 February 1770 with a treatise entitled "De morbo coxario";〔ADB (1894)〕 ("On disease of the hip"). In June of the same year he was appointed to a professorial chair in anatomy at the University of Nagyszombat.〔〔Borchling (1902:119–120)〕 Trnka thus became one of five who first formed the medical faculty there.〔 He continued his service when the university was moved, first to Buda in 1777〔 and later to Pest, in 1784.〔Borchling (1902:120)〕 He switched academic chairs twice, becoming the professor of general pathology in 1781 and of special pathology in 1786.〔 19th-century sources describe Trnka's medical career as a distinguished one; for instance Baas (1876) lists him among the eminent physicians of the "older Vienna School". He was a prolific author. Trnka composed music, but apparently composition was only a hobby for him, and he was not judged sufficiently important as a composer to merit an article in the ''Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians''. According to Link, Trnka was a friend of the famous musical patron and organizer Gottfried van Swieten, son of Gerhard.〔Link (2006:132)〕 He died in Pest on 12 May 1791.〔Hecker (1839:552)〕 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「Wenzel Trnka」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
