History
Why Is Wilhelm von Giesebrecht Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Friedrich Wilhelm von Giesebrecht was a German historian. He was born in Berlin, the son of Karl Giesebrecht , and a nephew of the poet Ludwig Giesebrecht . He studied under Leopold von Ranke, and his first important work, Geschichte Ottos II., was contributed to Ranke's Jahrbücher des deutschen Reichs unter dem sächsischen Hause . In 1841 he published his Jahrbücher des Klosters Altaich, a reconstruction of the lost Annales Altahenses, a medieval source of which fragments only were known to be extant, and these were obscured in other chronicles. The brilliance of this performance was shown in 1867, when a copy of the original chronicle was found, and it was seen that Giesebrecht's text was substantially correct.
