critical history of primitive Christianity (Kritische Geschichte des Urchristenthurns, 3 vols., Stuttgart, 1838). Here Gfrorer had manifested opinions unfavourable to Protestantism, which, however, were not openly avowed until fully developed in his church history (Allgemeine Kirchengeschichte bis Beginn des I4ten Jahrhunderts, Stuttgart, 18411846). In the autumn of 1846 he was appointed to the chair of history in the university of Freiburg, where he continued to teach until his death at Carlsbad on the 6th of July 1861. In 1848 he sat as a representative in the Frankfort parliament , where he supported the " High German " party, and in 1853 he publicly went over to the Church of Rome. He was a bitter opponent of Prussia and an ardent controversialist.Among his later historical works the most important is the Geschichte der ost- u. westfrankischen Karolinger (Freiburg, 1848) ; but those on the pseudo-Isidorian Decretals (Untersuchung fiber Alter, Ursprung, u. Werth der Decretalen des falschen Isidorus, 1848), on the primitive history of mankind (Urgeschichte des menschlichen Geschlechts, 1855), on Hildebrand (Papst Gregorius VII. u. sein Zeitalter, 7 vols., 18591861), on the history of the 18th century (Geschichte des 18ten Jahrhunderts, 18621873), on German popular rights (Zur Geschichte deutscher Volksrechte im Mittelalter, Basel, 18651866) and on Byzantine history (Byzantinische Geschichten, 18721874), are also of real value.
