Why Is Johann Frischmuth Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Johann Frischmuth was a German Orientalist. Life Johann Frischmuth was born in Wertheim a small town and regional centre in the hills to the west of Würzburg. His father, a baker, was also called Johann Frischmuth: his mother was born Margaretha Buttel. The years 1618 to 1648 were dominated by the Thirty Years' War, as a result of which during his childhood he was moved from one place to another. It was to avoid the plague that the marauding armies brought in their wake that the family made their first move and left Wertheim. While they were living in the village of Reichenholz Frischmuth obtained schooling from the local priest. He then embarked on higher level studies at the University of Altdorf where the record of his matriculation is dated 5 November 1636. He was introduced to oriental languages by Theodor Hackspan and received his "Magister der philosophischen Wissenschaften" degree in 1639.
