Theodor Gomperz (1832-1912) was Professor of Classical Philology in Vienna and is today primarily known as the author of the three-volume work "Greek Thinkers", which is still astonishingly modern and still can be recommended to read: Since Gomperz was a classical liberal he was well acquainted with the recent scientific developments of his time which still today are the basis of our scientific world view: Evolution, psychology, criticism of religion, ethnology, economy, nuclear physics and astrophysics. Gomperz had personal contact with pioneers of modernity such as Sigmund Freud or Ernst Mach.
