Johann Sommer
Johann Sommer (
Despot Vodă
's biographer.
Sommer was born in
Braşov (the one founded by Johannes Honter, the Honterus-Gymnasium in Kronstadt
), from 1565 to 1567. While he was rector there he wrote the epic Reges Hungarici.
He moved on to the John Sigismund Unitarian Academy, Kolosvar (1570–1574). According to the 18th-century historian Johann Seivert, he married the daughter of Ferenc Dávid, and this statement was overtaken by many other sources; however, there are no direct proofs of this, and it is in contradiction with more proven facts.[4] He died in Cluj.
