Georg Autenrieth

Georg Autenrieth (3 November 1833, in Schwand – 8 June 1900, in Nuremberg) was a German philologist and educator.

From 1852 he studied philosophy, philology and theology at the University of Erlangen, and after completion of studies, taught classes on different subjects at the gymnasium in Erlangen (1857–1872). In 1869 he received the title of professor. Later on, he served as rector at gymnasiums in Zweibrücken (1872–84) and Nuremberg (Melanchthon-Gymnasium; 1884–1900).[1][2]

Published works

He was the author of a popular Homeric dictionary, Wörterbuch zu den Homerischen Gedichten (1873, 9th edition 1902), that was translated into English and published as A Homeric dictionary, for schools and colleges (1880). His other noteworthy written efforts include:

  • Bayerische Fürstentafel, zunächst für den Schulgebrauch entworfen, 1864 – Bavarian Fürstentafel.
  • Grundzüge der Moduslehre im Griechischen und Lateinischen, 1878 – General teaching mode of Greek and Latin.
  • Das Sebaldusgrab Peter Vischers, historisch und künstlerisch betrachtet, 1887 – The grave of Sebaldus by sculptor Peter Vischer, historical and artistic considerations.
  • Entwickelung der Relativsätze im Indogermanischen, 1893 – Development of relative clauses in Indo-European.
  • Pfälzisches Idiotikon. Ein Versuch, 1899 – Palatinate idioticon, an essay.

After the death of philologist Carl Friedrich Nagelsbach, Autenrieth released new editions of his works on Homeric theology, gymnasium pedagogy, comments on the Iliad and Latin stylistics for Germans. He also published a biography of Nagelsbach in the Allgemeine Deutsche Biographie.[3]

gollark: As far as I know ROCm is available on basically no GPUs and is very finicky to get working.
gollark: It seems like AMD could have done a much better job than they did, though.
gollark: DRAM is what regular RAM sticks use: it uses a lot of capacitors to store data, which is cheap but high-latency to do anything with, and requires refreshing constantly. SRAM is just a bunch of transistors arranged to store data: it is very fast and low-power, but expensive because you need much more room for all the transistors.
gollark: They say they have 200 MB of SRAM on each (16nm) chip. That sounds hilariously expensive.
gollark: It's cool that they have a Vulkan-based version instead of just supporting CUDA only.
