Deichmann Branth - A portrait based mainly on his letters VAGN AI-STRUP Alstrup, V. L992: Deichmann Branth A portrait based mainly on his letters. Graphis Scripta 4: 39-43. Stockholm. ISSN 0901 -7593. A biography is given of the Danish amateur lichenologist Jacob Severin Deichmann Branth (1831-l9ll) based mainly on his correspondence for more than 60 years with his friend Otto Moller. Vagn Alstrup, Institut for gkologisk botanih Q. Farimagsgade 2D, DK-1353 Kqbenhavn K Danmark. Branth was born 1831 in NykObing Mors, Denmark. After his mother's death two years later he was brought up by his uncle, the rural dean R. S. Deichmann. In L849 he graduated from secondary school and began to study theology at Copenhagen University, where he met Otto MOller. The correspondence between the two students began in 1853 and continued until Christmas 1914, shortly before Mgller died. 242 letters were exchanged between them. The letters are all preserved and have been published in full length (NOrr 1936). In the letters the two friends exchange opinions about all aspects of their personal life, religious matters, culture, politjcs and science. Being personal letters they are often written in a straightfonvard, powerful style, and they contain expressions and personal opinions about colleagues and other public persons, which they would hardly have published. As a historical source they are therefore valuable, although it sometimes appears, that they kept a debate open by provoking exaggerations or ambiguities to tease each other. They often used words which cannot be found in ordinary dictionaries and my translation into English does probably not give the writers full justice. The following portrait is based on the letters as well as on Norr's introduction, Christensen (L924-L926) and on my personal contact with Branth's youngest daughter Ruth Deichmann Branth, born L903. Several photographs of Branth at different ages are included in NOrr (1986). Christensen also brought a portrait. Deichmann Branth's professional caneer. Branth worked as a private tutor 1358-L86L, then he became headmaster at Tonder Realskole. After the German occupation of Slewig L864 he was dismissed and was unoccupied until he became assistent vicar in SkrelskOr, Zealand, L866. I87l to 1880 he was vicar at Elling in north Jutland and 1880- 1905 vicar at Sneptrup, east Jutland. After his retirement he moved to Kolding where he died. Family life. Deichmann Branth married Sophie Dumreicher 1862. Branth was sorry, that they did not get any children, but 1872 they had a foster-girl, who brought some life to the house. Sophie was very quiet and religious, and she turned more and more inwards. Branth wrote to Moller, that she had almost left this world long before she died shortly after their silver jubilee in L887.
