Gottschalk Eduard Guhrauer

Gottschalk Eduard Guhrauer (15 May 1809 – 5 January 1854) was a German philologist and biographer. He is known principally for his 1842 biography of Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz and his completion (1853) of Theodor Wilhelm Danzel's biography of Lessing, G. E. Lessing, sein Leben und seine Werke (1850–53, 2 volumes).

He was born at Bojanowo (then in Grand Duchy of Warsaw, now in Poland) and died at Breslau (now Wrocław, Poland).

He studied philology and philosophy at Breslau and Berlin, later spending time in Paris, where he researched Leibniz' works. After his return to Germany, he worked as a librarian at the University of Breslau. In 1843, he became a professor at Breslau.[1] He wrote also on Jean Bodin, Joachim Jungius and Kurmainz (Electorate of Mainz).

gollark: What would you actually reasonably use it for anyway other than cooling?
gollark: (Termux is a thing allowing you to run Linux programs like ssh and python and whatever, in a terminal, with some convenient device APIs)
gollark: There are also "security" changes in Android 11ish which would stop Termux from working (if it updates to the corresponding API level).
gollark: And for even more !!FUN!! each device has its own vendor-provided kernel which is never updated.
