Preface: History of the Registrar Profiler The Faculty of Law of Berlin University has existed since the founding of the University in 1810 alongside the Faculties of Theology, Medicine and Philosophy. The statutes of the University of Berlin of October 1816, which remained in force until the enactment of the "Statutes of the Prussian Universities and Technical Colleges" in 1930, had provided in § 4 for the formation of a "legal department".(1) The constitution and the legal status of the Faculty of Law resulted from the "Statutes of the Faculty of Law of the Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität zu Berlin" of 1838.(2) Thereafter the Faculty of Law had the task of teaching law. The rights and duties of the faculty as an authority consisted 1. in the supervision of teaching in its fields and its completeness; 2. in the supervision of students in scientific and moral respects and the granting of benefits and bonuses; 3. in the granting of academic dignity."(3) The first lectures were held in the winter semester 1810/11 by Professors Schmalz, von Savigny and Biener.(4) The number of students enrolled at the faculty was 53 in the first semester of its existence, then fell to six during the wars of liberation, and then grew continuously after the end of the war (summer semester 1825: 585, winter semester 1830/31: 701). In addition to its teaching activities, the Faculty of Law at Berlin University had since its foundation the character of a so-called "Spruchkollegium"(5) According to the procedural law in force at the time, the Spruchbehörde had the task of drafting judgments in proceedings before the courts. Through the introduction of the Reichsjustizgesetze after the Reich unification from above the Spruchkollegien lost their meaning. Although regular seminaristic exercises had already been carried out since 1819, above all to introduce the older sources of law, it was not until 1875 that a "Legal Seminar" was founded, which had the task of primarily preparing young academics for academic research through exercises in the field of legal history.(6) Since 1908, the Legal Seminar has served the education of all students. In 1887, the German Studies Department of the Law Department became the "Seminar für deutsches Recht" (Seminar for German Law), which was initially directly subordinated to the Ministry of Culture. The Legal Seminar existed until 1945. In addition, the "Criminalistic Seminar" had existed since 1899, which had to train the next generation of university lecturers in criminal law as a specialist seminar. From 1887 to 1896, on the basis of an agreement with the Russian government under the direction of Professor Eck, the so-called "Russian Institute" was concerned with the training of Russian students in Roman law.(7) In the following years, and especially since 1918, several other institutes were founded, such as the "Church Law Institute" in the summer semester of 1917 and the "Institute for Foreign and Economic Law" in the winter semester of 1920/21. On 1.11.1935 the "Institute for State Research" was transferred from Kiel to the University of Berlin. In February 1936, the former Faculty of Law was renamed the Faculty of Law and Political Science, and the areas of political science and economics that had previously belonged to the Faculty of Philosophy were integrated into the new Faculty.(8) Thus, the new Faculty was expanded to include the "Department of Political Science and Statistics", which had previously belonged to the Faculty of Philosophy. The "Kommunalwissenschaftliche Institut", which was founded in August 1928 as the first of its kind in Germany, was also transferred to the Faculty of Law and Political Science. The task of this institute was to provide an introductory training for candidates of higher career in municipal service. On 1.1.1937 a new "Institute for Commercial Law" was founded. The director Professor Hedemann had headed a similar institute at the University of Jena. In 1937 two further institutes were founded, the "Sozialwissenschaftliche Institut für Volkswohlfahrtspflege" and the "Institut für Wohnungs- und Siedlungswesen". The so-called Sozialwissenschaftliche Institut für Volkswohlfahrtspflege, which had been founded by the fascist NS-Volkswohlfahrt, had the task, under the direction of the head of the main office Hilgenfeldt, of working on the area of Volkswohlfahrtspflege. The "Institut für Wohnungs- und Siedlungswesen" (Institute for Housing and Settlement), which was concerned with teaching and research activities in the field of housing and settlement, should also be mentioned. With effect from 1.10.1938, the "Institute for Labour Law", which had previously existed at the University of Kiel, was transferred to the University of Berlin. Professor Siebert became director of the institute. In February 1940 the "Staatswissenschaftlich-Statistische Seminar" was given the name "Institut für Wirtschaftswissenschaft". By decree of the Reich Ministry of Science of 12 March 1940, the "Institute for Air Law" was moved from Leipzig to Berlin and assigned to the Faculty of Law and Political Science. Since the winter semester of 1942/43 there has been an "Institute for Commercial and Company Law" under the direction of Professor Gieseke. In March 1943 the "Institute for Youth Law" was founded, which according to the statutes had the task of teaching and research in the field of youth law, especially in the field of neglect research. The institution was particularly supported by the Reich Ministry of Justice and the Reich Student Leadership.(9) According to the files available, this institute did not seem to have been active until the collapse of the fascist state. In January 1943, the Department of Politics of the Institute for Politics and International Law was transferred from the University of Kiel to the Faculty of Law and Political Science under the name "Institute for Politics".(10) Nothing is known about the effectiveness of this institute, which was moved to Wittenberg in September 1944 and whose director was Professor Ritterbusch. After the reopening of the university in 1946, the aforementioned institutes were dissolved, with the exception of the Institute of Labour Law, Criminalistics and the Legal Seminar. (1) cf.

Registraturverhältnisse The registry of the Faculty of Law has been administered centrally by the university registry since the University was founded(1) The order within the registry has been arranged very simply in alphabetical keyword order. This order was maintained until 1945. Since the tasks and the structure of the faculty have remained constant since its foundation in 1810, the registry conditions have also remained unchanged. 2. access The holdings have been in the university archives since 1954. As a result of the alphabetical order of keywords, the use was extremely difficult. Only a keyword overview was available. 3. archival treatment The existing keyword order could not be taken as a basis for the order, since there were no factual connections. Therefore, three main groups with the corresponding subgroups were formed. This structure is clear and unambiguous, providing the user with a well-structured inventory overview. A name and subject register is located at the end of the index. The order and distortion was carried out in the summer of 1966. A revision took place in 2008/09/10.

Foreword: History of the registry sculptor The teaching of forestry in Prussia was already given before the founding of the university in Berlin. This took place first in the context of the mountain academy. After the foundation of the Berlin University in 1810 G.L. Hartig continued the teaching. It was not until 1821 that the "Forst-Akademie Berlin" was founded. This institution, which was headed by the former Professor F.W.L. Pfeil, did not belong to the university, but was a "special institute" associated with the university. Since, however, the practical training in Berlin came too short, after negotiations with Wilhelm v. Humboldt, it was achieved that the Ministry for Spiritual, Teaching, and Medical Affairs (Kultus-Ministerium) ordered the relocation of the institution to Eberswalde. On May 1, 1830, teaching began in Eberswalde, initially as the "Höhere Forst-Lehr-Anstalt". The aim of the training was to qualify as a forestry administration service. The institution was headed by a director. In 1868, under Danckelmann's leadership, who was primarily committed to the development of the natural sciences, the former forestry academy was renamed the "Forst-Akademie". The subordination of the Forst-Akademie changed several times. When the Lehr-Anstalt was founded, the administration of domains and forests was subordinated to the Prussian Ministry of Finance. In 1835 this administration came into the business area of the "Ministry of the Royal House". Since 1848 the Ministry of Finance was again responsible. From the year 1878 on the Prussia was now. Ministry of Agriculture, Domains and Forests. This subordination lasted until 1933, when the Prussian State Forestry Administration was spun off from the Ministry of Agriculture, Domains and Forests and directly subordinated to the Prussian Prime Minister. In March 1935, the State Forestry Office was merged with the Reich Forestry Office founded in 1934 and now bore the designation "Reich Forestry Office and Prussian State Forestry Office". Supervision of the Eberswalde Forestry University fell within the remit of the State Forestry Office. In 1921, the former Forestry Academy was granted the status of a university with a rectorate constitution. At the same time, she was granted the right of doctorate and postdoctoral lecturing qualification. In June 1939, the Reich Minister for Science, Education and National Education took over the supervision of teaching, while the Reich Forestry Office remained responsible for research matters. The first statutes date back to 1884. After that it was the task of the Forestry Academy to train candidates for service in the state administration scientifically and practically. The Minister for Agriculture, Domains and Forestry appointed a course gate, usually the respective Oberlandforstmeister, later State Secretary in the Reich Forestry Office, who was in charge of the direct supervision of the Forestry Academy. The Director was responsible for the management of the Academy. The appointments of the professors were made by the Minister. These "provisions" were reworded in 1908 as "Statutes". After the previous Forest Academy was converted into the "Forstliche Hochschule" in 1921, the new version of the statutes had become necessary. The Prussian. The State Ministry issued the "Statutes of the Eberswalde and Hann. Münden Forestry University" on 17 Oct. 1922. These statutes remained in force until 1945, apart from a few amendments. The educational goal of the university remained the training of cadres for the Prussian state forest administration. The institution of the curator also remained. The management bodies were active: The Rector The College of Professors; The Faculty. The Rector was elected for 1 year by the College of Professors. He was in charge of the university and was also responsible for the administration. The teaching areas, which served the education of the students, were led by professors, but were administratively under the control of the government forestry offices (with the government presidents). While the existing experimental departments were integrated into the new university, the "Forstl. Department" as Prussia. Forstl. Versuchsanstalt" from 1.4.1923 into the area of the Ministry. In 1930, when the 100th anniversary of Forstl. college, the following institutes were available: Silviculture (Prof. Dengler) Meteorologist (Prof. J. Bartels) Wood research (Prof. Schwalbe) Soil science (Prof. Albert) Botany (Prof. Noack) Zoology (Prof. Eckstein, Wolff) Seed testing centre (Prof. Schmidt). In 1934 the wood research institute was spun off from the university. As the "Reichs-Anstalt für Holzforschung" it was directly subordinated to the Reich Forestry Office. In 1945 the Forstl. University the following institutes: Meteorological-physical. Institute (Prof. Geiger) Chemical Institute (Prof. Trénel) Institute of Soil Science (Prof. Wittlich) Botanical Institute (Prof. Liese) Zoological Institute (Prof. Schwerdtfeger) Fisheries Institute (Prof. Schäperclaus) Institute of Forest Science (Prof. Hesmer) Institute of Silviculture Technology (Prof. Hesmer) Krahl-Urban) Institute for Forest Seed Science and Reproduction Breeding (Prof. Schmidt) Institute for Forest Establishment (Prof. Kohl) Institute for Forest Use and Labor (Prof. Hilf) Institute for Forest Policy and Business Administration (Prof. Lemmel). In addition to the aforementioned training areas, there were also training facilities: the Harz Office of the Reich Forester, the kiln and a sawmill. Due to the total collapse of the fascist state, the teaching activities in Eberwalde were also stopped for the time being. By Order No. 107 of the SMAD of 8 Apr. 1946, Forstl. Eberswalde University of Applied Sciences as a forestry faculty of the University of Berlin. Registratur,- u. Bestands-Geschichte I. Registratur-Verhältnisse: There is no information available about the structure and development of the registry of the Eberswalde Forestry Academy. There is only one regulation on the course of business, which mainly determined the course of documents from receipt to completion of processing. This "regulatory" also prescribed the layout of expiring documents and their treatment by the registry. There can be no doubt that at least until the introduction of the new registry at Forstl. Eberswalde University of Applied Sciences. The order of the registries was based on signatures, whereby the main groups were identified by Roman numerals and the individual file units by Arabic numerals. This results in the following registry scheme: I, No. 1-53: Organisation of the Forest Service (Forstl. University, teaching and research, celebrations and festivities, doctorates and habilitations. II, No. 2-15: Land, building and construction matters. III, No. 1-10: Budget, - and accounting. IV, No. 1-4: Collection and library matters. Exhibitions. V., No. 1: Admission of students. VI: Examination matters. X: Personnel matters. The registry scheme introduced in 1939 was reconstructed as follows on the basis of the existing file units: 0: Basic 1: Budget and accounting (basic); 2: Library matters; 3: Personnel matters: 4: Teaching and teaching; 5: Examination matters; 6: Celebrations and festivities; 7: Property, construction, budget matters; 8: Research and institute matters; 9: Employment of forestry officials. These main groups were extended to a two-digit and three-digit system. This order could essentially be maintained, since it was set up according to an order scheme which was applied during the time of the existence of the Forstl. University remained unchanged. (§ 61 O.V.G.). The new registry order introduced in 1939 could also be retained, as it documents a clear inventory structure. A reorganisation was therefore not necessary. TWO. Access: On Dec. 14, 1961, on the occasion of an inspection by the former Faculty of Forestry in Eberswalde, it was determined that there were approx. 6-7 running metres of forest on the floor of the administration building. files from the years before 1945. They were Forstl files. Eberswalde University of Applied Sciences from the years 1830-1945. According to the overview obtained at that time, the existing stock was already very incomplete. An immediate backup of the still existing files was maintained as necessary and the rectorate was suggested to transfer them to the archive as soon as possible. The faculty management initially objected to the levy. At the beginning of Jan. 1962, the rectorate decided that the files should be sent to the Humboldt University archives, unless special reasons were put forward for their stay in Eberswalde. In July 1962, the Dean of the Faculty was asked by the Rectorate to arrange for the files to be transferred to the archives. In the meantime, the decision had been made to dissolve the faculty in Eberswalde. This delayed the handover again. A discussion held in Eberswalde showed that the forestry institute of the German Academy of Agricultural Sciences, which took over the continuation of the research affairs in Eberswalde, wanted to take over the existing file material. In April 1963, the State Secretariat for Higher Education decided, on the basis of a report by the university management, that the files in question should be sent to the Humboldt University archives. The final takeover then took place in September 1963. III. Archival processing: The transfer of the file units had been carried out with a list of files. Since on almost all files registry signatures were present, after the storage possibility was created, the existence was initially pre-ordered by the Koll. Rambeau and at the same time worthless written material (.v.a. voucher material) was separated out. For preliminary orientation, a registry scheme was drawn up from which it was possible to determine without difficulty the structure of the then registry according to main groups. At the recording, which was carried out in the months October to December 1965 by the head of the archive, colleague Kossack, two registration layers could be determined. The older registry order, marked with the Roman numbers I, II, III, IV, V, VI, and X, was kept until about Nov. 1939, as was evident from the file management. From November 1939 a 3-digit file plan with the main groups 0-9 was introduced. This document, which was taken from the document containers and bundled in disorder, had to be sorted according to the existing signatures and new files had to be created. Since some fileplan items contain only one activity, in some cases several subjects have been grouped together in one document container. The "extended indexing" (§ 87 OVG.) was applied to the indexing of the holdings in order to ensure the most intensive possible indexing of the file units. This was regarded as all the more necessary as the total stock was very incomplete. The group listing (§ 91 OVG.) took place in the cases "Bibliotheks-Angelegenheiten" and "Aufnahme der Zöglinge". Both registry layers were regarded as the basis for the creation of partial inventories, with reference notes being made for the corresponding file units. (§ 62 OVG). The existing personnel files were listed individually at the end of the inventory. A name, - u. Sach-Register is supposed to facilitate the finding of the archives for the user.

Preface: Biographical information about the descendant Emil Seckel was published on 10.1.1864 in Neuenheim-Heidelberg as son of the pharmacist Dr. phil. Georg Seckel was born. The Seckel family owned the Löwenapotheke in Stuttgart. There Emil Seckel attended the Eberhard-Ludwigs-Gymnasium. From 1882 to 1886 Seckel devoted himself to the study of law in Leipzig (among others with Hellwig) and Tübingen. After completing his studies in 1887, he began working as a trainee lawyer at the Stuttgart-Stadt district court. In 1889 he went to Tübingen as a private scholar and in the following years travelled through the libraries and archives of Germany, France and above all Italy. On 21.2.1895 he received a doctorate in law in Tübingen for his work "Zu den Akten der Triburer Synode 895" without having passed a doctoral examination in the true sense. Shortly afterwards, on 17.7.1895, he habilitated as a private lecturer in Berlin, which became his second home. At the Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität in Berlin he was appointed extraordinary professor for Roman law on 13.6.1898 and ordinary professor for Roman law on 24.11.1901. From 1905 to 1906 he was Dean of the Faculty of Law. Seckel's work at Berlin University was crowned by his activity as rector in 1920/21. In 1912 Seckel became a member of the Prussian Academy of Sciences at Heinrich Brunner's suggestion. In addition, in 1915 he became head of the Leges of the Monumenta Germaniae Historica. Since 1916 he was also co-editor of the journal of the Savigny Foundation for Legal History. Seckel's scientific development was strongly influenced by the Tübingen law faculty, especially by G. Hartmann, H. Degenkolb and G. Mandry. His unprinted beginner's work "The foundation's foundation, especially among the living, according to Roman-Justinian law, as well as according to the teaching of glossators and postglossators up to the 16th century" led him to the field of science that was decisive for him, legal-historical research. Here he made a considerable contribution to the restoration of classical Roman law and to research into the further development of post-Justinian vulgar law in the Middle Ages. He also contributed significantly to the study of the history of the origin of canon law from Roman and Germanic roots. Seckel's great knowledge of the legal manuscripts of the Middle Ages deserves special mention. Thus, the edition of unknown or previously incorrectly edited legal-historical sources occupied a large space in his work. However, Seckel always saw his studies on the history of law from the point of view of improving the understanding of current law. On the occasion of the centenary of Berlin University, Seckel was awarded the title of Red Eagle Order IV in 1910. Class awarded. On the occasion of his 60th birthday, he also received an honorary doctorate from the Faculty of Philosophy at Königsberg University. From his marriage with Paula Hinschius, daughter of the church law teacher Paul Hinschius, which was closed on 10.5.1898 in Berlin, three children emerged: Irmgard, Helmut and Dietrich. Emil Seckel died after a long illness on 26.4.1924 in the sanatorium Wehrawald near Todtmoos in the Black Forest.

The digital database (HC-CK) is an amalgamation of digital scans, images and video footage relating to missionary Carl Hoffmann’s work and life on various mission stations. The information has been gathered from several institutions, personal collections and field research excursions. These include: the Berliner Missions Archiv, Berliner Missions Bibliothek, Zweigbibliothek Afrikawissenschaften (Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin), the Unisa Library Archive in Pretoria, the State Archives in Pretoria, the personal collection of Martin and Albert Neitz (grandchildren of Carl Hoffmann) as well as field research data collected by Dr. Annekie Joubert in Poland, Germany and South Africa.The top priority of this project is to recognize the Hoffmann Collection of Cultural Knowledge as a national treasure and to safeguard it not only for scientific use, but also for the people of South Africa. With the database, the project further envisages the dissemination of this collection of threatened resources through new technology such as filming and digitisation, and to make it more accessible through the bilateral exchange of the material in digital format between Germany and South Africa. As researchers, we hope that the outcomes of this research project (book publication, documentary film, database) will open new perspectives on Northern Sotho linguistics, oral literature, cultural heritage, mission history and visual arts embedded in historiography.
Sans titreOrder and classification: Formerly secret promotions were probably already taken from the general files by the file maker and kept separately, presumably in a so-called "iron cupboard". These procedures can now be found, if they still exist, in the rear part of the collection under the file title "Secret Doctorates". CH, 07.12.2017 Foreword: History of the registry trainer The Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences of Berlin University was established by decree of the Reich Minister of Science, Education and Popular Education with effect from 01 April 1936. The following institutes were transferred from the Faculty of Philosophy, which previously included both the humanities and the natural sciences, to the business area of the new faculty: Mathematical Institute Institute for Applied Mathematics Seminar for the Education of Students in Scientific Computing I. Physical Institute II. Physikalisches Institut I. Institute for Theoretical Physics II. Institute for Theoretical Physics Institute for Height Radiation Research Meteorological Institute Chemical Institute Physical-Chemical Institute Technological Institute Pharmaceutical Institute Museum of Natural History Mineralogical-Petrographic Institute Geological-Paleontological Institute Zoological Institute Zoological Museum Plant Physiology Institute Botanical Museum Geographical Institute and Museum of Oceanography The faculty also provided training: University observatory in Potsdam-Babelsberg Astronomisches Recheninstitut Deutsches Institut für Perlen- und Edelsteinforschung Botanischer Garten Geodätisches Institut (Potsdam) Geophysikalisches Institut (Potsdam) 1) Nothing significant changed in this composition until 1945. It should only be mentioned that in November 1942 an "Institute for Race Biology" was founded. The separation of the natural sciences from the humanities took place at a relatively late stage in Berlin. 2) The faculty's teaching staff consisted of 37 full professors 1 reading member of the Prussian Academy of Sciences 2 full honorary professors 20 honorary professors 3 civil servants extraordinary professors 47 non-official extraordinary professors 40 lecturers 3 assistant lecturers 1 lecturer In the winter semester 1944/45 the faculty consisted of 37 full professors 1 reading member: 34 full professors 10 released full professors 3 reading members of the Prussian Academy of Sciences 3 extraordinary professors 1 released extraordinary professor 1 visiting professor 14 honorary professors 1 released ordinary honorary professor 53 extraordinary professors 5 non-official extraordinary professors 46 lecturers 12 lecturers 12 lecturers The teaching staff included such outstanding and internationally known and respected university professors and researchers as M. Planck, M. v. Laue, E. Schrödinger, E. Schmidt, W. Nernst, W. Heisenberg, P. A. Thiessen and M. v. Ardenne. From April 1, 1936 to May 8, 1945 Prof. Dr. Ludwig Bieberbach was dean of the faculty. 1) See Official Gazette of the Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität zu Berlin, No. 7 of 1.4.1936, p. 149, 155 2) Negotiations had already taken place in 1923/24 because of the division of the philosophical faculty, but these were unsuccessful because of the negative attitude of the majority of the faculty members. Cf. to this: University Archive of the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Faculty of Philosophy - Dean's Office - No. 12, pp. 12/13, 30-42 Registratur- und Bestandsgeschichte 1st Registraturverhältnisse: The registry was administered by the dean's office. The order within the registry was done in the simplest way according to the alphabetical keyword system (e.g. "General" = A). Access 2: The holdings have been in the custody of the University Archives since its foundation (1954). It consists of 12 file units of business files and 239 volumes of habilitation and doctoral files. Since there is no list of files, it is not possible to determine whether the files have been handed down in their entirety. It must, however, be assumed that the greater part of the business files has been lost, while the habilitation and doctoral files are completely available. 3. archival treatment: The keyword order could not be used as a basis for the order of the stock. Three main groups were therefore formed. The order of the stock took place in August 1970 by the undersigned. The recording of the file units had already been carried out at an earlier date.

Preface: The Faculty of Theology Dean's Office History of the Registrar's Educator The Faculty of Theology has existed since the founding of the university in 1810. However, the first colleges on Christian morality and hermeneutics were held by Schleiermacher as early as 22.11.1809.(1) In an expert opinion on the establishment of the Faculty of Theology from 25.5. to 22.11.1809, the first colleges were held in the Faculty of Theology.In 1810 Schleiermacher demanded a division of the subject matter into exegetical, dogmatic and practical theology and a seminar for scholarly theology for a closer connection between pupils and teachers and for the deepening of knowledge, pointing out that no difference should be made between the denominations and individual directions of the Protestant Church within the faculty.(2) As can be seen from the Faculty Statutes of 1838, Schleiermacher's proposals were also realized. The following disciplines were on the curriculum: Encyclopedia and Methodology of Theology Introduction to the Old and New Testaments Biblical Critique and Hermeneutics History of the Old Testament and Biblical Archaeology Interpretation of the Pentateuch, the Job, the Psalms and the Isaiah, the most important historical and didactic writings of the New Testament Church and Dogma History Dogmatics, theological Morality, Symbolism Practical Theology, in the whole and in individual branches. These disciplines were also confirmed in the faculty statutes of 1903. The Faculty of Theology at the University of Berlin was the leader in Germany in the 19th century. Among the most important professors of that time were Schleiermacher, Marheineke, de Wette, Neander, Hengstenberg and Twesten. At the end of the 19th century the faculty reached a new heyday through the work of the professors von Harnack on church history and von Schlatter on systematic topics. In the 20th century, under the deanship of Professors Stolzenburg and Seeberg, strong tendencies towards National Socialism also emerged in the Faculty of Theology. Supporters of the Confessing Church (e.g. Dietrich Bonhoeffer) were given leave and students were strictly forbidden to participate in their events. D. Werner Gruehn, professor of systematic theology and religious psychology, and Dr. Ernst Schubert, lecturer for foreign Germanism and the Church, represented National Socialist ideology. Both dealt with problems of "German people growth abroad" in connection with church issues. In the years 1847 to 1870 an academic service was held during the semester. The first plans were made in 1810, but could not be realized. The request of the faculty to establish a university church in 1830 was also not answered by the ministry, until in 1847 the energetic efforts of Professor Dr. Nitzsch succeeded in establishing a Protestant preaching position at the university. The first service took place on the 3rd Sunday of Advent 1847 in the Dorotheenstädtische Kirche. There was also a seal for the university preacher. From 1847 to 1855 Professor D. Nitzsch served as university preachers, from 1855 to 1858 Professor Wuttke and the private lecturers Lic. Strauss and Dr. Erdmann served as interim lecturers, and from 1858 to 1870 Professor Steinmeyer. In the year 1870 this office was abolished, since in Berlin no university, but only a personnel municipality had formed and no need for the holding of an academic service seemed to exist any longer.(3) On 5.11.1916 it was however again taken up and held up to 1923 by all professors in the turn in the Kaiser Wilhelm memory church.(4) Only with effect from 1.12.1923 the student priest received again a fixed remuneration. Until then, aid had to be requested to cover the most urgent costs of renting the church space, among other things. The Academic Divine Service was financially supported by the state until 1938,(5) but until 1945 it was no longer announced in the university calendars and regarded as an internal church matter. The student chaplain worked at the university until 1945. The following institutes were affiliated to the Faculty of Theology: 1. Theological Seminary In the summer semester of 1812 the Theological Seminary was opened.(6) It made subjects of theological scholarship its task and was divided according to the regulations of 31.5.1812 into two sections, the philological and the historical. Of these, the philological was once again divided into the Old Testament exegesis and the New Testament exegesis. The historical department, originally divided into church history and dogma history, continued to exist after a few years as a church history department. The systematic department was added around 1920, but hardly any further details exist about it. Over the years, the subdivisions developed into independent departments, which were only nominally connected by the dean as director of the seminar. In 1931 there were tendencies to make the four departments independent, but this proposal was rejected by the Ministry for financial reasons.(7) The seminar was endowed with scholarships and bonuses and therefore had to limit the number of its members to twenty. Although at first there was no uninterrupted direction for each department, in the course of time a constant direction developed through certain conductors, so that the conductors were later appointed. The changing directors of the Old Testament department show the changing currents of contemporary theology. Their first leader was de Wette until 1819. After interim stages, Professor Hengstenberg took over the seminar in 1826 and carried out the exercises in Latin until the introduction of the German language in the winter semester of 1846/47. Dillmann, who had led the seminar since 1869, retained the Latin language for his written works. It was not until the winter semester of 1881/82 that they were partly submitted in German. From 1.4.1884, the premiums for the work from the sovereign wealth fund ceased to apply. Since the seminar was no longer a scholarship institution at the same time, the limitation of participants became superfluous. Since 18.1.1887 the seminar also received means for the establishment of a library. The New Testament Department of the Theological Seminary was opened on the proposal of the Faculty of Theology of 6.4.1812 by the Regulations of the Department of Cultures and Public Education of 31.5.1812 as a subdivision of the Philological Department. Schleiermacher was the first director of the philological department. In the New Testament section, larger sections of the New Testament were treated in conversational work and written works were prepared. A special library for New Testament exegesis was available. In 1908 the seminar was divided into the Proseminar for beginners and the Seminar for advanced students.(8) The Department of Church History was headed by Professor Neander until 1850. During this time there were extensive lectures from all periods of church history, especially the old church history, and treatises on published works. To obtain seminar scholarships or bonuses, written work had to be written in Latin. Since 1906 the seminary has been divided into a department for early church history and a department for more recent church history. The practical-theological seminar Plans for the establishment of a Homiletian Institute were already worked out by Professor Marheineke and presented to the Ministry on April 3, 1821. Marheineke saw the purpose of the institute as the exercise of the students in the elaboration and presentation of spiritual speeches and in the evaluation of the presented. The Ministry welcomed the establishment of a Homiletic Society, but wanted it to be regarded as a private institute until the participation of the students ensured sufficient income. Around 1862 Professor Büttner founded a homiletic seminary at the university and planned a catechetical one. Until 1873 he carried out the corresponding exercises as an honorary professor. On 1 October 1875, Professor Pfleiderer finally opened the Practical Theological Seminary.(9) According to the regulations of 31 March 1876, it served the students to prepare them for the future spiritual profession through suitable exercises. Students of the first four semesters were not admitted to the seminar. The seminar consisted of a homiletic and a catechetic section, where a weekly seminar service was held in the homiletic instead of the speech exercises. The chapel of the cathedral candidate abbey served as a place of practice. In the catechetical department at first only exercises were held after private consultation with teachers. Since 1906, however, by decree of the Provinzialschulkollegium, students were allowed to spend one hour a week in the upper class of a community school. From the winter semester of 1912/13 onwards, regular liturgical and church music exercises were carried out following the seminar. Professor Kaweran was the leader of these exercises.(10) After his death in 1918 Professor Biehle took over the leadership.(11) 3. The Christian-archaeological and epigraphic collection According to the decree of the Prussian Ministry for Spiritual, Educational and Medical Affairs of 23.5.1849, the Christian-archaeological art collection (also Christian Museum) was founded in June 1849 after many years of efforts by Professor Piper. Professor Piper, who served as director of the Christian-Archaeological Collection until his death on 29.11.1889, mainly collected costly originals, copies of pictures and casts of originals with the purpose of making the students familiar with early Christian history. At first he kept the works of art in his apartment, but on 22.4.1850 he transferred them to a room in the school building at Friedrichstraße 126 with the permission of the school authorities.(12) Since spring 1891 they have been in the west wing of the university.(13) With this collection Professor Piper was the first in the world to create a model for all universities. His successor, Professor Müller, supplemented the existing collection with plaster casts, photographs and other illustrations of early Christian and medieval monuments and from 1890 devoted himself particularly to building up a library. After the death of Professor Müller on 3.9.1912, Professor Deißmann took over the management of the collection on a representative basis and Professor Stuhlfauth on 1.4.1913. Since 31.3.1924 Professor Lietzmann was involved in the management alongside Professor Stuhlfauth. With effect from 1.10.1935 Professor Friedrich Gerke was appointed Director of the Seminar for Christian Archaeology and Art.(14) Under his direction the seminar was given the character of a research and teaching institute for the entire late antique and medieval archaeology and art research. In 1936 he started to build up a Nordic-Germanic department. After he was drafted into the military, Professor Hans Reinerth took over the management of the seminar on a representative basis and in 1944 initiated the relocation of the institute's library to the Dechtow manor. The teaching collection, publications and foreign correspondence were brought to Schloss Plattenburg / Prignitz. 4th Seminar for Post-Biblical Judaism On 13.11.1883 Professor Strack founded the seminar with the aim of driving "Jewish mission" and acquainting Christian theologians with Judaism, its literature and its essence.(15) It received no state support, but was greatly enriched by the donation of Professor Strack's library in 1918. After the death of Professor Strack, Professor Greßmann took over the directorship of the seminar on 1.12.1923, Professor Joachim Jeremias on 1.10.1928 and Professor Bertholet on 12.7.1929. On 1.10.1937 Professor Hempel was appointed managing director.(16) Since the summer semester of 1937 no more lectures have been held. Since the Institute has not been listed in the course catalogue since the summer semester of 1939, it was probably dissolved in the winter semester of 1938/39. The Institute was founded in 1917 by Professor Julius Richter as a seminar on mission history and renamed the Seminar on Mission Studies on 9 June 1931. Julius Witte was appointed Director on 6 November 1930. He remained so until his retirement on 1.4.1939.(17) From 1.4.1934 onwards, the Institute dealt not only with the holding of religious studies exercises but also with the study of Germanic religions and the Christianisation of the Germanic peoples. After the decree of 24.10.1935 it was therefore renamed the Institute for General History of Religion and Missionary Studies.(18) Since after the retirement of Professor Witte the appointment of the Chair of Missionary Studies was no longer intended by the Ministry, the Institute was closed on the basis of the decree of the Reich Ministry for Science, Education and Popular Education of 3.1.1944. The existing books were transferred to the university library. 6th Institute for Social Ethics and Science of Inner Mission The Institute, founded in 1927, was affiliated to the Theological Seminary, Department of Systematic Theology, and, according to its statutes of 25 July 1927, served the scientific promotion and instruction of students in the field of inner mission in connection with the problems of social ethics and welfare work. The first director, Professor Seeberg, was appointed by the Ministry of Science, Art and Popular Education in consultation with the Faculty of Theology and the Central Committee of the Inner Mission. He was assisted by a board of trustees composed of a representative of the ministry, a member appointed by the president of the German Protestant Kirchentag, a member of the Protestant Oberkirchenrat in Berlin, two lecturers from the Faculty of Theology and two members of the Central Committee of the Inner Mission. Assistants of the Institute participated in the meetings of the Board of Trustees. The institute was dissolved on the basis of the ministerial decree of 26.3.1938.(19) (1) Todt, Fr., in: Das Pfarrhaus, 1895, Nr. 11 u. 12: Die Theologische Fakultät der Universität Berlin, Berlin 1896 (2) Elliger, Walter: 150 Jahre Theologische Fakultät Berlin, Berlin 1960 (3) DZA Merseburg, Rep.76 Va Sekt.2 Tit.1 Nr.8 (4) DZA Potsdam, Reichserziehungsministerium, current no. 1239 Bl.3 (5) DZA Potsdam, Reichserziehungsministerium, current no. 1239 Bl.36 (6) Lenz, Max: Geschichte der königlichen Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität zu Berlin, Halle/Saale 1910, Volume 3, pp. 3-24 (7) HU Berlin, Archiv, Universitätskurator, current no. 792/1 (8) Lenz, ibid.

After comparison with the old administrative repertory, hardly any loss of files occurred. No cassations were made. The bequests of Professors Titius and Gerke, which were kept under the files, were spun off as separate holdings and the files from the period after 1945 were transferred to the administrative archive. Before being handed over to the dean's office, the files were administered in the university's central registry and filed according to the alphabetical keyword system. The repertory of the authorities, which had been set up accordingly, turned out to be completely inadequate, so that the stock was recorded and rearranged in the summer and autumn of 1966.

The file no. 744 to 793 were found in the archives during the clean-up and added to the find book together with the file no. 794-796 given to us by the Department of Historical Collections of the HU 2011 University Library. History of the Registratur-Bildners The later Tierärztliche Hochschule zu Berlin was opened on 01.06.1790 as Tierarzneischule. (1)She was first subordinated to the Oberstallmeistern v. Lindenau and v. Jagow. Count Lindenau had been commissioned by Friedrich Wilhelm II to take the necessary preparatory steps to found a veterinary school. In view of the devastating cattle plague, King Frederick II had already given the order to draw up a plan for a veterinary training centre. However, the submitted plans failed because the Prussian Treasury was not willing to bear the requested construction costs at the proposed level. However, political and military considerations forced King Frederick William II to agree to the founding of a veterinary school in 1787. The costs were to be borne by the royal private assets. After v. Lindenau had led appropriate negotiations, the Tierarzneischule was opened to 01.06.1790. 4 professors, 1 pharmacist, 2 teaching blacksmiths, 1 stable master, 1 farm assistant, 1 provisional (pharmacy), 2 guard masters, 1 castellan, 9 stable servants, 1 gardener, 2 garden servants, 1 night watchman and 1 candidate made up the first staff of the school. At first the training was almost exclusively of so-called military eleven, soldiers who were trained as flag smiths for the army. In the year 1806 Graf v. Lindenau met back from the management of the school and his successor Oberstallmeister v. Jagow took over. The subordination to the Obermarstallamt had a very negative effect on the development of the school. On 26.03.1810, W. v. Humboldt drew up a memorandum which emphasised the scientific significance of the Tierarzneischule in particular and in which he spoke out in favour of integrating the school into the newly established university. Although Humboldt's demands were rejected by Jagow, this memorandum nevertheless became the starting point for renewed proposals for an improved establishment of the school, which were presented above all by Prof. Rudolph, Medical Councillor, and Langermann, State Councillor. By cabinet order of 09.06.1817 the school was subordinated to the Ministry of the Interior and the War. At the beginning of August 1817, the first department of the Berlin government took over the supervision of the school. (2) After the dissolution of the Berlin government and the restoration of the police headquarters, the veterinary school was subordinated to it. (3) The regulations about the restoration of the police headquarters in Berlin of 18.09.1822 provided in § 8 - Medizinal-Polizei - the subordination of the Charité and the Tierarzneischule to the medical department. As ministerial authority, the Ministry was now responsible for spiritual, educational and medical matters. In addition, the War Ministry and the Obermarstallamt had retained their say. By cabinet order of 16.11.1835 "for the acceleration of the reorganization and expedient management of the Tierarzneischule" the establishment of a "Kuratorium für die Krankenhaus- und Tierarzneischulangelegenheiten vom König Friedrich Wilhelm III. was ordered. (4) Privy Councillor Albers, who had been appointed provisional director, conducted the takeover negotiations on the part of the school. The right of the War Ministry and the Obermarstallamt to have a say remained unchanged. After the dissolution of the Board of Trustees, the administration of the Veterinary School was transferred by cabinet order of 10.12.1847 to a directorate directly subordinated to the Ministry of Spiritual, Educational and Medical Affairs. This Directorate consisted of the Director (Albers until 1849) and the Accounting Council of Esse, who was also the Administrative Director of the Charité. Other directors were: Gurlt until 1870, Gerlach until 1877, Roloff until 1885 and since 1885 - Müller. A cabinet order of 27.04.1872 ordered that the Veterinary School be subordinated to the Prussian Ministry of Agriculture, Domains and Forests. At the same time, a close connection was established with the veterinary administration, which subsequently had a very fruitful effect, especially on scientific research activities. On 20.06.1887 the Tierarzneischule was awarded the title "Tierärztliche Hochschule" by "Allerhöchsten Erlass". At the same time, Minister v. Lucius issued a provisional statute for the school. (5) Thereafter, the school's performance committees were the rector and the teaching staff. (§ 5 loc. cit.) The Rector was appointed by the Minister. It was not until 1903 that the school was granted the right to vote. The principal was responsible for running the school. The administrators were under the authority of the rector. The senior administrative officer used the official title "Administrator". (Section 24 of the Articles of Association). The first rector was the former director Prof. Müller. It was not until April 1913, after lengthy negotiations, that the school was awarded the final charter by the "Allerhöchste Order" of 31.03.1913. (6) The right to award doctorates had previously been granted (05.09.1910). In September 1932 the Ministry of Agriculture, Domains and Forestry issued a new statute for the veterinary universities in Prussia, according to the information provided. (Ministerial Gazette of the Prussian Administration for Agriculture, Domains and Forests, No 41/1932, p. 566). In addition, the draft Rules of Procedure for the Rector and Senate of the University of Veterinary Medicine have been drafted. (7) However, as a result of the subordination to the Prussian Ministry of Science, Art and Popular Education, these no longer appear to have been carried out. In January 1909, at the request of the rector Schmaltz, the title "Magnifizenz" was awarded to the rector of the school. (8) This also meant that the external equality with the other Berlin universities (university, technical college, agricultural college) had been achieved. By the emergency decree of 29.10.1932 the Veterinary University was again subordinated to the Prussian Ministry for Science, Art and National Education. (9) On 02.10.1934 the Prussian Minister of Science, Art and National Education ordered the transfer of the administrative business of the Veterinary College to the Administrative Director of the Charité. (10). This order already suggested that the integration of the university into the university was imminent. Already on 20.10.1934 a meeting took place in the Ministry of Culture. (11) Professors Krüger and Bierbaum, as representatives of the school, were decidedly against the intended establishment of an agricultural veterinary faculty at Berlin University for various reasons. They advocated the creation of an independent veterinary faculty and rejected any link with the Faculty of Agriculture. Notwithstanding the objections also from other sides, the integration of the University of Veterinary Medicine and Agriculture into the University as the 5th Faculty took place under the name of "Faculty of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine", Department of Agriculture and Department of Veterinary Medicine with effect from 01.11.1934. (12) Since the management of the administrative affairs by the Administrative Director of the Charité led to the detriment, the Administrative Director of the University took over these from 01.05.1935. Subsequently, the existing officials and employees of both departments were entrusted with new areas of work. With effect from 01.10.1937 the Department of Veterinary Medicine was transformed into an independent Faculty of Veterinary Medicine and separated from the connection with the Faculty of Agriculture. (13) Since 01.10.1937 the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Berlin has been in existence. Registratur und Bestandsgeschichte I. Registraturverhältnisse As is usual with the older authority registries, the registry of the University of Veterinary Medicine also contained fact files. In most cases, the file titles correspond to the contents of the file. The external condition of the files, apart from some damaged file units, can be described as good. The traditional registry order begins relatively late, only with the takeover of the Tierarzneischule by the government of Berlin in 1817. From 1790 to 1817 the school was under the control of the Oberstallmeistern v. Lindenau and v. Jagow. The registry order was established in 1841 by the registrar Tönnies. (14) It has essentially been preserved in its structure until 1945 and beyond a few years later. Main groups were formed which were called "sections" (Roman numerals). The further subdivision according to Arabic numerals designated the individual file unit. A total of 45 sections were formed, with sections XXVIII, XXXVII-XLI, XLIII and XLV completely missing. The subordination of the Tierarzneischule under three different middle authorities (1817 government Berlin, 1822 police headquarters Berlin, 1836-1848 board of trustees for the hospital and Tierarzneischulangelegenheiten) affected also the registration conditions. Thus, a significant number of file units of these intermediate authorities, known as the "veterinary school registry", were inserted into the registry of the veterinary school when it was dissolved and continued there. Some files, which were not continued at the Tierarzneischule (government Berlin, police presidium). Board of Trustees for Hospital and Veterinary School Matters), were forwarded to the State Archive in Potsdam for competence. The direct subordination to the Ministry of Spiritual, Educational and Medical Affairs in 1847 eliminated the double subordination and also created clearer registry relationships. After the integration of the University of Veterinary Medicine into the University of Berlin on 01.11.1934 and the formation of the Faculty of Agricultural Veterinary Medicine, Department of Veterinary Medicine, the registration conditions remained the same. (15) After in May 1935 the administrative director of the university had been charged with the administration of the agricultural veterinary institutes, about 160 file units were handed over to him, most of which still exist. (16) The former central registry of the Veterinary University was thus split up. One part was handed over to the administrative director of the university (from 1936 university curator), the other remained as faculty files in the independent faculty of veterinary medicine established with effect from 01.10.1937. The existing audit files are referred to as "personal files", which also have gaps, are not listed in alphabetical order and are located at the end of the file. (17) A copy of the registration scheme is attached as an annex. TWO. Access The holdings were located in the heating cellar of the Chemical Institute of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, where they were found in November 1960 and taken over by the archive in January 1961. Negotiations to take over the stock had already been conducted with the Dean of the Faculty since 1955, but without result. At first, the dean refused to hand over the files to the archive, although the inventory was transferred from one place to another and finally ended up in the heating cellar of the Chemical Institute. During the order and distortion it was determined that the stock is no longer completely available. For cassation, therefore, it was mainly personal files of the technical personnel that were proposed. III. archival treatment The file material was roughly arranged in the year 1962 by Mr. Rambeau, whereby after the existing registry signatures the earlier order scheme was reconstructed. The indexing took place in the months February to June 1965 by Dr. Kossack, then head of the university archive. The existing file units were listed individually. The "extended distortion" (§ 87 OVG) was applied. Only in the case of the 'expert reports' files was the group listing applied. With regard to the internal order of the inventory, the found registry order was retained, since it remained unchanged during the activity of the registry formatter. (§ 61 OVG). A delimitation of the individual sections has been made and a copy of the registration scheme has been attached so that the user can quickly find his way around.

Administrative history/biographical information: The existing find book from the 70s was entered into the Augias archive with the help of the files. Later files of the university library from the period of origin until 1945 which were handed over to the university archive were also recorded in the Augias archive. The files with the signatures 0216, 0314, 0317, 0366, 0410, 0432, 0461, 0474, 0475, 0485 and 1144 were missing at the time of inclusion or had already been marked as missing during a revision in 2000 and were therefore not entered. Claudia Hilse Foreword: History of the registry sculptor On February 20, 1831, the UB was founded by cabinet order of Friedrich Wilhelm III, who had been preceded by an application from the rector and senate on the one hand and the then head librarian of the Royal Library, Wilken, on the other. The fund of 500 Thlr. per year approved for the maintenance and propagation of the UB for the first time should be covered until further notice from the surpluses of the wood and light money to be paid by the students. Furthermore, a contribution of 5 Thlr. should be paid to the University Library for the acquisition of a special fund by each PhD at the doctorate, by each Privatdozent at the habilitation and by each newly appointed professor at the employment or promotion. Friedrich W. Eilken was entrusted with the management on a voluntary basis. He designated the doublet room of the KB to receive the compulsory copies of the publishers of the Mark Brandenburg and Berlin which had been sent to the university since 1 January 1825, as well as for new acquisitions. As the acquisition fund was too small, the UB only expanded very slowly. From the very beginning, however, she participated in the exchange of university publications. Later, this exchange developed into a focal point of collecting. Today, the UB Berlin is the central collection point of Germany in the field of dissertations and other university publications as well as the centre of international exchange. The systematic catalogue, which was printed between 1839 and 1842, contained around 10,000 works in 15,000 volumes. The portfolio consisted of 15
and 85% for deposit copies and gifts. A scheduled purchase has therefore not yet taken place. Wilken's multiple attempts to obtain higher funds for the purchase of books and the salaries of officials failed. In 1839 the UB and the KB were spatially separated. The UB moved into the so-called Adler's Hall (Unter den Linden 76). Wilken died on 24.12.1840. His successor, the historian Georg Pertz, led the directorate business from 1842 to 1872 to the advantage of the library. By the end of 1848 the collection had expanded to over 30,000 volumes. In the years 1871 to 1873 the UB received a new building in the Dorotheenstr. 9, which had been calculated too small however regarding its capacity. Therefore, in 1900 the neighbouring property, Dorotheenstr. 10, was acquired. In 1874, Falk Koner began managing the directorate business. His main focus was on the acquisition of book collections of deceased scholars, which were partly donated, partly sold. Koner died in 1887 after receiving the title of Privy Councillor in 1884, but not Director of the UB. Until 1889, Minister von Goßler once again ordered the personal union with the KB, but on October 1, 1889 Wilhelm Erman, until then librarian at the KB, was appointed chief librarian and in April 1890 director of the UB. Erman was responsible for the reading room library, for the abolition of the vouchers, was very active in the collection of university publications and began cataloguing the libraries of the university institutes in 1891 on the basis of a ministerial decree. It is fatal that Ermann received Althoff's consent to the disposal of "superfluous book material". Between 1892 and 1898, 16,869 works were then sorted out, so that in February 1902 Johannes Franke found only 161,735 volumes as Ermann's successor. This made the UB one of the smallest university libraries in Germany. Under Franke, women entered the library service for the first time in Prussia. After two years of training under his direction, they received certificates on the basis of an examination. In addition, Franke dealt with a thorough examination of the entire UB, with the extension of the reading room library and with the reconstruction of the alphabetical catalogue on the basis of the "Prussian Instruction". Franke died on 25.03.1918. On 06 July 1918 Gotthold Naetebus, who came from the KB, took over the business. When he retired in March 1930 due to reaching the age limit, the Berlin and Göttingen UBs belonged to the top group of Prussian university libraries. On February 20th Rudolf Hoecker, the successor of Naetebus, celebrated the centenary of the UB. However, he was granted leave on 31.03.1934 as a member of the library council on the basis of the Nazi law for the protection of the civil service. Gustav Abb, the department director of the Prussian State Library, took over the provisional management of the management business on 01.04.1934. In May 1935 he was appointed director. On 28.04.1945 he retired voluntarily from life. Under Rudolf Hoecker, the clean-up and salvage work began at and in the heavily hit library. Wieland Schmidt, new director of the UB since 01 May 1946, reopened the library. After Schmidt left the company in October 1950, his deputy Rudolf Keydell initially ran the business until it was taken over by Willi Göber, the new director, on 1 April 1952. Under his leadership, the effectiveness of the UB was extended beyond the needs of the Humboldt University. She was granted the right to take over compulsory copies for Greater Berlin. Her special field remained the collection of university publications. From 1961 to 1973 Oskar Tyszko was director of the UB Berlin. Mrs Irmscher has been in his place since 1973. Inventory history The inventory, approx. 16 running metres, was in a completely disordered condition in the building of the University Library and was taken over on 9 and 10 June 1969 by employees of the archive of the Humboldt University. The work was carried out by a trainee of the Fachschule für Archivwesen, whose introduction has been shortened and revised and incorporated into the history of the Inventory Designer.

Foreword: Information from the Findbuch, which Archive Director Heinz Kossack compiled in September 1965, with a few more intensive annotations: Foreword: History of the Registratur-Bildners: Die Philosophische Fakultät der Berliner Universität besteht seit der Gründung der Universität im Jahr 1810 besteht. The statutes of the university from 1816 as well as the statutes of the faculty itself from 1838 provide comprehensive information about the tasks and the structure of the faculty. 1) These statutes remained in force until 1923 with some changes, except for a new version in 1912. 2) In July 1923 new statutes were prepared and negotiated on the basis of a decree of the Prussian Minister for Science, Art and National Education of 30 March 1923, which, however, according to the available documents were not concluded. 3) In March 1930, the Prussian State Ministry issued a new statute to the Berlin University, in which the legal status of the faculty as a "corporation and authority" was also stated. 4) As an authority, the faculty had the following tasks: 1. to supervise teaching in its fields and its completeness; 2. to supervise students from a scientific point of view; 3. to grant academic dignity. 5) At the turn of the century, the faculty is also referred to as an "authority" for the tasks of academic self-administration and state administration. It had the status of an independent state authority alongside the rector and senate. 6) The first lectures of the newly founded faculty began in the winter semester 1810/11 in the following scientific fields: Philosophy Mathematical Sciences Natural Sciences Cameralistic Sciences Fine Arts Historical Sciences Classical Studies Philological Sciences Modern Languages and Literature The first Dean of the Faculty was Fichte. With effect from April 1, 1936, the long-considered separation of the humanities and natural sciences was achieved by the formation of an independent Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences. 7) This made it necessary to reorganize the faculty. Prof. Dr. Breloer became Dean of the new Faculty of Philosophy. The following institutes and seminars were now part of the Faculty of Philosophy: Philosophical Seminar Psychological Institute Pedagogical Seminar Institute for Political Pedagogy Seminar for Nationalities Studies Institute for Newspaper Studies Institute for Prehistory and Germanic Early History Historical Seminar Seminar for Eastern European History and Regional Studies Seminar for State Studies and Historical Geography Institute for Military Policy and Geography Archaeological Seminar Art History Institute Music History Seminar Institute for Sound Research Institute for Classical Studies Germanic Seminar Theatre Studies Institute Seminar for English Philology Seminar for Romance Philology Institute for Slavic Languages Hungarian Institute Indogermanic Seminar Seminar for Regional Geography Seminar for Languages and Literatures Hungarian Institute for Indo-European Institute for Languages and Literature Seminar for Languages and Literature and Classical Studies of the Orient Sinological Seminary Institute for Arabic and Islamic Studies Egyptological Seminary 8) The following changes occurred in the structure of the institutes until 1945: Newly founded: Seminar for German Folklore Institute for Folk Art Research The Seminar for State Studies and Historical Geography was integrated into the Historical Seminar as a department for regional history and historical geography. The Institute for Military Policy and Geography was renamed the "Wehrpolitisches Institut" and the archaeological seminar the "Winckelmann-Institut". The seminars for English and Romance Philology were renamed "English and Romance Seminars". The Seminar for Slavic Languages was given the name "Slavic Institute". Furthermore, the following were newly founded: "Institute for Portugal and Brazil", as well as the "Orient-Institut", into which previous sinological seminaries and the Institute for Arabic and Islamic Studies were integrated as departments. The last dean until 8 May 1945 was Prof. H. Grapow. 1) University Archives of Humboldt University: "Faculty of Philosophy."

Registratur-Verhältnisse The registry of the Faculty of Philosophy has been managed centrally by the university registry since the university was founded. 1) The faculty thus had nothing to do with the keeping of its files. The order within the registry was done in the simplest way in alphabetical keyword order. This order was maintained until 1945. Since the tasks and the structure of the faculty remained constant since its foundation in 1810, the registry conditions also remained unchanged. The formation of the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences in 1936 and the incorporation of the Faculty of Philosophy into the Faculty of Natural Sciences did not change anything in the existing stock. TWO. Access The holdings have been in the custody of the University Archives since it was founded in 1954. The alphabetical order of keywords was still used, so that its use was extremely difficult. There was also no overview of the existing files. III Archival processing Due to the existing keyword order, there were no factual connections within the holdings. It was therefore necessary to reorganise the stock. Functional groups had to be created and the individual record units assigned to these groups. A draft framework file plan for the scientific institutions facilitated this work. The inventory was first drawn up in order to make it easier to use. The group "Promotions" did not list the 733 volumes of promotion files individually, since they are already indexed by a card index. The order was done after the distortion. The same procedure was followed for the "Habilitations" group as for the doctorates. The existing faculty personal files are recorded in a special index of names. It was therefore decided not to include them again in the search book. On the other hand, the creation of a register of names and objects was recommended to make it easier for the user to work with the holdings. The order and indexing work was carried out in the months of July to September 1965 by the head of the archive, Dr. Heinz Kossack Quellen- und Literaturnachweis I. Quellen: 1.
