See also:MUTIAN, KONRAD (1471-1526) , See also:German humanist, was See also:born in Homberg on the 15th of See also:October 1471 of well-to-do parents named Mut, and was subsequently known as Konrad Mutianus See also:Rufus, from his red See also:hair. At See also:Deventer under See also:Alexander See also:Hegius he had See also:Erasmus as schoolfellow; proceeding(1486) to the university of See also:Erfurt, he took the See also:master's degree in 1492. From 1495 he travelled in See also:Italy, taking the See also:doctor's degree in See also:canon See also:law at See also:Bologna. Returning in 1502, the landgraf of See also:Hesse promoted him to high See also:- OFFICE (from Lat. officium, " duty," " service," a shortened form of opifacium, from facere, " to do," and either the stem of opes, " wealth," " aid," or opus, " work ")
office. The See also:post was not congenial; he resigned it (1503) for a small See also:salary as canonicus in See also:Gotha. Mutian was a See also:man of See also:great See also:influence in a select circle especially connected with the university of Erfurt, and known as the Mutianiscl er Bund, which included Eoban See also:Hess, Crotus Rubeanus, Justus See also:Jonas and other leaders of See also:independent thought. He had no public ambition; except in See also:correspondence, and as an epigrammatist, he was no writer, but he furnished ideas to those who wrote. He may deserve the See also:title which has been given him as "precursor of the See also:Reformation," in so far as he desired the reform of the See also:- CHURCH

Church, but not the See also:establishment of a See also:rival. Like Erasmus, he was with See also:Luther in his See also:early See also:stage, but deserted him in his later development. Though he had personally no See also:hand in it, the Epistolae obscurorum virorum (due especially to Crotus Rubeanus) was the outcome of the Reuchlinists in his Bund. He died at Gotha on the 3oth of See also:March (See also:Good See also:Friday) 1526.
