German Wikipedia, viewed June 5th, 2024 (Theobald Billicanus, also known as Theobald Gerlacher or Diepold Gerlacher (born approximately 1493 in Billigheim; died August 8th, 1554 in Marburg), was a German theologian, lawyer and reformer. He was enrolled at the University of Heidelberg on September 5th, 1510 and studied together with Philipp Melanchthon, Martin Bucer, Johannes Brenz and Johann Schwebel. After completing his studies, he remained as a teacher of dialectics at the Faculty of Arts in Heidelberg and was promoted to dean in 1517 and head of the College of Arts in 1520. On October 31, 1522, the council of Nördlingen offered him a contract as a pastor for ten years. (...) He fled to Marburg, where he was awarded a doctorate in both law in 1546 and a professorship at the Faculty of Law in 1548. In the same year, he also served as rector of the university.)
