Gottlieb Gerhard Titius was born on 5 June 1661 in Nordhausen, Thuringia,[1] and died on 10 April 1714 in Leipzig.[2][3][4]

Titius taught Roman law at Leipzig University,[5] where he was on the faculty from 1688.[6] He edited De jure naturae et gentium, a treatise by Samuel von Pufendorf,[5] and wrote a commentary on De officio by Pufendorf.[2]

Christian Thomasius was his teacher.[5]
