Born: September 14, 1791, Mainz Died October 23, 1867. Berlin German linguist. Professor of Oriental Literature and General Philology at the University of Berlin (1821-67). He first studied Sanskrit in Paris, and in 1816 published On the Conjugation System of Sanskrit in Comparison with Greek, Latin, Persian, and Germanic Languages (Über das Conjugationssystem der Sanskritsprache in Vergleichungmit jenen der griechischen, lateinischen, persischen und germanischen Sprachen), which established the kinship of the Indo-European languages. Together with R. Rusk, he is often called the father of comparative linguistics. His other works include a Comparative Grammar of Sanskrit, Avestan, Greek, Latin, Lithuanian, Old Slavonic, Gothic, and German (Vergleichende Grammatik des Sanskrit, Zend, Griechischen, Lateinischen, Litauischen, Altslawischen, Gothischen and Deutschen) (1833-52).
