Karl Heinrich, Ritter von Lang (1764–1835)
Lang, Karl Heinrich, Ritter von (läng). A German historian; born at Balgheim, July 7, 1764; died near Ansbach, March 26, 1835. His principal works are: ‘Historic Development of the German Tax System’ (1793); ‘Modern History of the Principality of Bayreuth’ (3 vols., 1798–1811); ‘History of the Jesuits in Bavaria’ (1819). His posthumous ‘Memoirs of the Ritter von Lang’ (2 vols., 1841) made a great noise when first published; but they are to be used with discretion.
