LIETZMANN, HANS. - Protestant theologian, b. 1875, d. 1942. A pupil of the classical philologists H. Usener and Fr. Bücheler. This background in philology determined L.'s interesting scientific method.
He wrote: Der Menschensohn (Tübingen 1896); Catenaum Graecarum Catalogus (in Nachrichten der Götting. Gesellschaft der Wissenschaften, 1902); Apollinaris v. Loodices und seine Schule (I, Tübingen 1904); Das Leben des hl. Symeon Stylites (Leipzig 1908); Petrus und Paulus in Rom (Bonn 1915, 2nd ed., ibid. 1927); Das SacramentariumGregorianum nach dem Aachener Urexemplar (Münster 1920); Symbolstudien (in Zeitschrift für neutestam. Wissenschaft, 21 [1922]; 22 [1923]; 24 [1925] and 26 [1927]); Messe und Herrenmahl (Bonn 1926); Ein Beitrag zur Mandlerfrage (Berlin 1930). In the same year he published, together with H. W. Beyer, Die jüdische Katakombe der Villa Torlonia in Rom (ibid. 1930); Geschichte der alten Kirche (4 vols., ibid. 1932-44); Petrus, römischer Marivir (ibid. 1936). He was the editor of the Handbuch zum Neuen Testament, in which he published some commentaries, and he directed the collection: Kleine Texte für theologische u. philosophische Vorlesungen u. Übungen (Berlin and Bonn 1902 ff.).
L., a professor in Berlin from 1924 and a member of the Academy from 1927, had a sharp mind; as a theologian of conservative tendency, he also sought contacts with Catholic scholars.
