Albrecht for his doctorate examination. One of Erfurt University's earlier students was Martin Luther. The principal dedicatee, the King of Great Britain in 1770 was George III of Hanover, elector of Brunswick etc. (Albrecht describes himself as \"of Stade, Hannover\")\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlbrecht published, in 1775, in German, at Gotha, a treatise on beekeeping under the title \"Zootomische und Physikalische Entdeckung von der innern Einrichtung der Bienen, besonders der Art ihrer Begattung\" (Anatomical and Physical discovery of the correct management of bees as well as the manner of their generation) by J.
