German philologist and writer; born at Bojanowo, Prussian Poland, 1809; died at Breslau Jan. 5, 1854. He studied philology and philosophy at Breslau and Berlin; and in 1837 passed his examination and became a teacher at the Kollinsche Gymnasium in Berlin. The following two years he spent in Paris, studying especially Leibnitz's works, and then returned to Germany to become librarian of the University of Breslau. He became privat-docent in 1842, and professor in 1843, which position he held until his death.
