  Karl Lachmann - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In 1825 Lachmann was nominated extraordinary professor of classical and German philology at the Humboldt University, Berlin (ordinary professor 1827); and in 1830 he was admitted a member of the Academy of Sciences.
Lachmann's Betrachtungen über Homer's Iliad, first published in the Abhandlungen of the Berlin Academy in 1837 and 1841, in which he sought to show that the Iliad consists of sixteen independent "layers" variously enlarged and interpolated, had considerable influence on 19th century Homeric scholarship, although his views are no longer accepted.
Lachmann was the first major editor to break from the Textus receptus, seeking to restore the most ancient reading current in manuscripts of the Alexandrian text-type, using the agreement of the Western authorities (Old Latin and Greek Western Uncials) as the main proof of antiquity of a reading where the oldest Alexandrian authorities differ.

Lachmann first made his name in the study of mediaeval German literature (Walter von der Vogelweide, the Nibelungenlied), which he pursued with increasing philological rigor.
Separately, Lachmann noted the probability that Mark (not Matthew, which is preferred by the Church, and stands first in the Biblical Canon, or Luke, which stands first in the hearts of believers generally) was the earliest Gospel.
In parallel with Lachmann's Germanic and Greek labors, and demonstrating the universality of philological method as such, he produced throughout his career a long series of editions of Latin writers, from Propertius (1816) to his final landmark achievement, an edition of Lucretius (1850), on which he spent most of his last years.

 Markan priority
Working within the fragmentary theory, Karl Lachmann (1835) compared the synoptic gospels in pairs and noted that while Matthew frequently agreed with Mark against Luke in the order of passages and Luke agreed frequently with Mark against Matthew, Matthew and Luke rarely agreed with each other against Mark.
In 1838, two theologians, Christian Gottlob Wilke[?] and Christian Hermann Weisse, independently extended Lachmann's reasoning to conclude that Mark not only best represented Matthew and Luke's source but also that Mark was Matthew and Luke's source.
Their ideas were not immediately accepted, but Heinrich Julius Holtzmann's endorsement in 1863 of a qualified form of Markan priority won general favor and is still the dominant hypothesis today.

 From Lachmann to P. S. Allen
The line I wish to draw for you today is a fairly straight one: it is a stream that runs from Karl Lachmann to Moritz Haupt, thence to England by means of Henry Nettleship and from him to P. Allen at Oxford in the final decades of the nineteenth century.
Karl Lachmann studied for six years at Göttingen, where the spirit and method of Christian Gottlob Heyne (1729–1812) burned brightly.
Lachmann was well received in England by some but not all editors, and not even by all classical scholars.

Lachmann's first edition, which entirely lacked Prolegomena, and merely referred the reader to the prospectus Lachmann had published in a German periodical the previous year (Theologische Studien und Kritiken, 1830, pages 817-845).
Lachmann's Greek text was constructed on a simpler method than that of Griesbach, although with a less ambitious aim: his stated purpose was to reconstruct the text current in the fourth century, without claiming to present the "original" and without attempting to explain the evidence of later manuscripts.
Lachmann's second edition, which includes a Preface describing his method, a critically revised Latin Vulgate (based upon collations of two manuscripts of the sixth century), and annotations to the Greek text (supplied by Philip Butmann the younger) indicating the manuscript authority for the readings adopted.

Lachmann used this principle to create a stemma for the manuscripts of Lucretius; his resulting edition is considered a landmark of classical textual criticism.
From Lucretius, Lachmann turned his attention to the New Testament, publishing the first edition of the NT to be completely free of the influence of the Textus Receptus (1831; second edition 1842-1850).
Nor did Lachmann use his critical methods on the New Testament manuscripts; he simply took a handful of early witnesses and adopted the reading of the majority.

 Warring States Philology | Festival Calendar
Bentley's 1720 prospectus for a critical edition of the Greek New Testament (a project realized a century later by Lachmann) included an outline of critical principles, and noted that a text based on early manuscripts would differ from the accepted text in some 2,000 instances (a figure closely confirmed by Lachmann).
Karl Lachmann (4 Mar 1793 - 13 Mar 1851) realized Bentley's project for a critical text of the Greek New Testament.
Lachmann's New Testament (like Bentley's New Testament prospectus) made a decided break with previous tradition in abandoning the standard Greek text of the day and attempting to recover, and to substitute, something older.

Lachmann was the first scholar to be recognized as having parted completely from the Textus Receptus.
When Lachmann published his New Testament, his intention was not to reproduce the original text, task which he considered impossible, but to present with sheer documented evidences and without any reference to any publication printed before, the type of text that was current at the end of the 4th.century.

 Textual Criticism
The application of critical methods in the editing of classical texts was developed principally by three German scholars, Friedrich Wolf (1759-1824), one of the founders of classical philology, Immanuel Bekker (1785-1871), and Karl Lachmann (1793-1851).
Bekker collated some 400 manuscripts, grouped existing manuscripts of an author into families where one was derived from another, and published sixty volumes of improved editions of Greek authors.
Lachmann went further than Bekker, showing how, by comparison of manuscripts, it is possible to draw inferences as to their lost ancestors or archetypes, their condition, and even their pagination.

The basic proof is what Karl Lachmann, in 1835, called the "proof from order." [Karl Lachmann, De Ordine Narrationum In Evangelis Synopticis, cited in Stoldt, 135.].
It may be that what has been regarded as an "assured result of modern biblical scholarship" will be regarded as anything but assured at the turn of the millennium, or it may be that the upstart theories, by calling attention to themselves, will have invited precisely the scrutiny that will insure their downfall.

Karl Lachmann (1793-1851) broke with the Textus Receptus in 1831.
This, then, was the first "critical edition" of the New Testament -- an edition compiled using specific rules based on the readings of a significant selection of important manuscripts.
Some of these (Lachmann's own, and that of his younger contemporary Tregelles) are now almost completely obscure.

In 1789-90 Johann Jakob Griesbach suggested that Matthew came first, Mark copied from Matthew, and Luke copied from them both.
But in 1835 Karl Lachmann proposed a different genesis: Mark cam first, and both Mathew and Luke copied from it independently of each other.
The latter alternative is today the dominant explanation, and it is primarily the layering of Mark within Matthew and Luke that justifies our use of “excavation” for exegesis as well as archeology.
