His talents and hard work resulted in a richly productive career and an international reputation as a first-rank scholar. The author traces the evolution of the student community in secondary and higher education, and shows how by the 1860's a unique student movement had appeared which spread unrest among the schools and made defiance of authority a part of the educational experience of many students. The creation of rebellious students and intellectuals trained recruits for revolution. Artikel-Nr. 78892
