The son of a Hamburg priest, Rudolf Kapel studied at the universities of Wittenberg and Giessen , and then returned to his native Hamburg.
He wrote up to 200 scientific studies and notes, including: “De numo Zenonis” (Gamb., 1667 ), “Verzeichniss derer den Arcanern etc. entgegengesetzten Schriften "(ibid., 1668 )," Cl. Ctnfletii de antique numo liber "( 1678 )," Lectionum bibliothecariarum syntagma "( 1682 )," De Alcorano "( 1683 ).
The author of the famous collection on the northern countries of Europe and Asia : “Vorstellungen des Norden oder Bericht von einigen Nordländern, und absonderlich von dem so genannten Grünlande” (Hamburg and Stockholm, 1678 ). Fyodor Adelung in his Kritisch-Litterärische Übersicht der Reisenden in Russland mistakenly claims that Kapel himself was in Russia ; however, Capel's work is nothing but a collection of short stories from various travelers.
