Johann Rudolf Engau
Johann Rudolf Engau (28 April 1708 – 18 January 1755) was a German jurist.
Engau was born in Erfurt. He entered the University of Jena in 1726, and earned a doctorate of law from there in 1734. In 1738 he became extraordinary professor at Jena, and in 1740 became full professor as well as assessor for the magistrates' court (Schöffenstuhl).
In 1743 he was promoted to Institute Professor and assessor for the regional court (Landgericht); in 1746 became chair of the law faculty; and in 1748 Hofrat. His major publications were compendiums of German private, criminal, and canon law.

gollark: `is` tests object identity (in CPython, "same memory location") or something and not, well, actual equality, so it's just bizarre and esoteric and does *not* need its own operators.
gollark: I'm aware `is not` is a single operator. It's just vaguely weird.
gollark: ```python>>> 'something' is not NoneTrue>>> 'something' is (not None)False```python.
gollark: This is far inferior to osmarkssystemd.
