Why Is Robert von Zimmermann Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Robert von Zimmermann or Robert Zimmermann was a Czech-born Austrian philosopher. The mathematician and philosopher, Bernard Bolzano, entrusted his unfinished work, Grössenlehre , which had not been completed at the time of his death in 1848, to von Zimmermann who was 24 years old. Zimmermann had been a student of Bolzano's. Since Zimmermann's interests were more in the area of philosophy as he had been appointed to the chair of philosophy at the University of Prague in 1852, he didn't do much with Bolzano's papers. Most of the remaining manuscripts stayed in Zimmermann's possession until 1882 when he gave them to the Austrian Academy of Sciences . Robert von Zimmermann taught at the University of Vienna from 1861. One of his doctoral students was Kazimierz Twardowski.
