I said this in 1872
In a weird coincidence I was born in 1818 and became famous for my investigations of animal electricity

When I met Charles Darwin in London in 1866, he told me that "Nothing short of dire compulsion could make him read a page of German." #DarwinDay
I wonder where he got that idea.

Voici une brève présentation de l'ouvrage de Gabriel Finkelstein, professeur à l'université du Colorado, consacré à Emil du Bois-Reymond (1818-1896) : journals.openedition.org/lectures/14454
It’s 1896. I spent the day correcting proofs to make obituary of my friend Hermann von Helmholtz. I spent Christmas Eve and Day with my family. The next day I returned to my laboratory, where I died.

Courantの最初の妻 Nelly Neumannもまたドイツの大学で最初に数学の学位を取得した女性の一人である。離婚したときは、二人とも忙しかった時期だろうと思われる。1933年はユダヤ人であったことを理由に職を失い1942年にミンスクの収容所で殺害された。 jwa.org/encyclopedia/a…
数学者Paul du Bois-Reymondの兄Emilの娘Aiméeは、Runge-Kutta法で知られるCarl Rungeと結婚した。Rungeの娘Irisは当時のドイツの大学が女性を入学させる前にGöttingen大で数学を学んだ。Renate Tobiesによる伝記がある： link.springer.com/book/10.1007/9… Irisの妹NerinaはRichard Courantの二人目の妻である.
@EduBoisReymond Yes, you are 'the founder of modern neuroscience.' You 'established the methods of investigating the nervous system that remains current today.' researchgate.net/publication/28…

@steinhoff_uwe @gabridli @AnneKramer666 @mitpress @EduBoisReymond However, @BlumeEvolution recognizes an interesting development of the original and dusty monism of Haeckel to the epistemological philosophies of Buber and Popper scilogs.spektrum.de/natur-des-glau…

@gabridli If u need some indignation, just know that I'm sometimes confused whether @EduBoisReymond is a figment of your imagination or you're a figment of his
@EduBoisReymond @gabridli Does tweeting count as literarische Arbeit?
@EduBoisReymond @RyanMarino He's a mathematician--but I'm guessing you don't know him and cannot know him.
@AnneKramer666 @mitpress @gabridli @EduBoisReymond Yes, he was. It's a riddle, why we remember in Germany only Haeckel and Brehm and forgot the real big scientists. Must be also for political reasons.
... ein interessanter Artikel zu einer Frage, die sich schon @EduBoisReymond stellte, und die Thomas Naumann und ich (in aller Bescheidenheit) in #DasraetselhafteUniversum @KOSMOS_Astro auch aufgreifen...
Bevor das Leben auf der Erde entstehen konnte, mussten sich erst komplexe chemische Verbindungen bilden. Doch wie, ist bis heute rätselhaft. Denn ausgerechnet Wasser behindert diesen Prozess. Und die Antwort ist keineswegs so einfach, wie sie klingt. spektrum.de/news/ursprung-…
@gabridli @AnneKramer666 @mitpress @EduBoisReymond I'm not a real expert but I think it has to do with the two Nobel laureates Philipp Lenard and Johannes Stark. In 1924 they published "Hitlergeist und Wissenschaft", a support of national socialism. Lenard published in 1929 "Große Naturforscher", a book of biographies.
@gabridli @AnneKramer666 @mitpress @EduBoisReymond This was already "Deutsche Physik" and misleading. archive.org/details/b29824…
@gabridli @AnneKramer666 @mitpress @EduBoisReymond Lenard praises Julius Mayer as a real and healthy German. He has not such a good opinion on Helmholtz. Du Bois-Reymond is not mentioned at all.
