According to Wikipedia, Ștefan Micle was an Imperial Austrian-born and Romanian physicist and chemist. Born into a poor family in Feleacu, then in Imperial Austrian-ruled Transylvania and now in Cluj County, Romania, he attended primary school in nearby Cluj . He went to high school in Cluj, Blaj, and Bistrița, and began work as an apprentice during that time in order to support himself. In 1843, he graduated with high marks from the Cluj Academy of Law . He was an active participant during the Transylvanian Revolution of 1848. In 1850, after receiving a scholarship, he left for the Vienna Polytechnic. There, he proved an able experimenter, and a professor allowed him to live in the physics institute's building. In 1856, invited by August Treboniu Laurian, he came to Iași, where he was named professor of physics and chemistry at the newly founded institute of higher education that evolved from Academia Mihăileană. His hiring at Iași formed part of a wider educational reform initiated by domnitor Grigore Alexandru Ghica in 1849. In 1858, in order to popularize science, he initiated a free physics course which drew large audiences.
