Friedrich Wilhelm Bautz (20 December 1906, Brambauer, Lünen – 19 August 1979, Dortmund) was a Protestant theologian and writer.[1]

Life

Bautz studied theology in Münster, Bethel (Bielefeld), Berlin and Tübingen.[1] From February 1939 he was pastor in the Franz Arndt-Haus, a war invalid home in Volmarstein, and later pastor in Kriescht and Annarode. From 1954 to 1958 he worked for the Neukirchener Verlagsgesellschaft as a publishing editor and at the same time as a parish representative at the parish of the Dorfkirche Stiepel. In 1959 he took over a sick leave in Heven (Witten). In the Dortmund City and State Library as well as in the University and State Library of Münster, Bautz worked on the Biographisch-Bibliographisches Kirchenlexikon (BBKL), a reference work he founded, authored and edited. With the piano teacher Else Bautz, née Schlimm, whom he married in 1939, he had three children, a daughter and two sons. His youngest child, Traugott Bautx (1945–2020) continued the editorship of the Biographisch-Bibliographisches Kirchenlexikon from 1979.[2] [3]
