Busembaum

Busembaum, Hermann, theologian, was born in 1600 at Nottelen, Westphalia. He occupied positions in various educational institutions of the Jesuits, and wrote Medulla Theologiae Moralis (1645), for long a standard authority in the seminaries of his Order, and so popular that it went through upwards of fifty editions. Ultimately, by order of the Toulouse parliament, it was burned, on the ground that it favoured regicide. Busembaum died in 1668.
