  Barthold Georg Niebuhr - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
From the earliest age young Niebuhr manifested extraordinary precocity, and from 1794 to 1796, being already a finished classical scholar and acquainted with several modern languages, he studied at the University of Kiel.
In 1813 Niebuhr's own attention was diverted from history by the uprising of the German people against Napoleon; he entered the Landwehr and ineffectually sought admission into the regular army.
The principal authority for Niebuhr's life is the Lebensnachrichten über B. Niebuhr, aus Briefen desselben und aus Erinnerungen einiger seiner nächsten Freunde, by Dorothea Header (3 vols., 1838–1839).

(B) THE Study Of The Classics In Secondary Education After the Revival of Learning the study of the classics owed much to the influence and example of Vittorino da Feltre, Budaeus, Erasmus and Melanchthon, who were among the leading representatives of that revival in Italy, France, England and Germany.
The general effect of the recommenda g tions already made would be to begin the study of foreign languages with French, and to postpone the study of Latin to the age of twelve and that of Greek to the age of thirteen.

 History of Iran: The Persian Wars
Niebuhr recognized that Herodotos presents scientific data and speaks in scientific terms, but these would be mere quackery because Herodotos was a pretender who tried to ape the scientific style that was being born in Greece at the time.
Niebuhr and the historians of the critical school would like to transfer to historical science the method of induction advocated for the natural sciences by positivist empiricists.
Since Niebuhr is the founder of the critical school of ancient history, it is important to define exactly the method followed by him in destroying the authority of Herodotos.

 Boston Collaborative Encyclopedia of Western Theology: Reinhold Niebuhr
Niebuhr major contribution can be seen in the effort by the church to re-establish the place of religion in general, and Christianity in particular as a key player in the array of cultural forces that influence and form civilization.
Niebuhr in his retirement expressed doubts on his earlier analysis suggesting that perhaps in his effort to diminish the group's moral capacity by contrasting it with the individual's, he may have inevitably overrated the capacity of the individual.
Niebuhr re-conceptualize agape love into a paradoxical formulation of the "impossible possibility." It as an impossibility because, "the Christian ethic cannot be simply love, for men live in history, and "perfect love" in history has not fared well" (Niebuhr, 1932, 22).

 References - Barthold Georg Niebuhr
Barthold Georg Niebuhr (August 27, 1776 - January 2, 1831) was a Germany statesman and historian.
The main results, says Leonhard Schmitz, arrived at by the inquiries of Niebuhr, such as his views of the ancient population of Rome, the origin of the plebs, the relation between the patricians and plebeians, the real nature of the ager publicus, and many other points of interest, have been acknowledged by all his successors.

Critical historians, beginning with Barthold Georg Niebuhr, have turned upside down the scientific method of Herodotos by considering the quantitative data as additional imaginative material that should be disregarded.
Niebuhr asserted that Herodotos' account of the Persian campaign is based upon an epic poem of Choirilos of Samos which built a grandiose and picturesque legend around rather modest events.
All that can be accepted as certain is that there took place a naval battle at Salamis and a land battle at Plataia, and that the Persians finally had to withdraw from Greece; the sequence of the events, including the dates of these battles, and all the details, cannot be established with any certainty.

 Oriental
Modern Oriental research in the Valley of the Nile began in 1798 with the Egyptian campaign of Napoleon, who with characteristic foresight invited M. Gaspard Monge (1746-1818) with a corps of savants and artists to join the expedition.
Thus the Rosetta inscription (embodying a part of a decree of Ptolemy V Epiphanes, 205-181 B. C.) stands in the same relation to the discoveries bearing on the literature and civilization of ancient Egypt as does the Behistun inscription with regard to the antique treasures discovered in Assyria and Babylonia.
The most important archæological discoveries in Palestine are the inscription of Mesha, King of Moab (ninth century B. C.) found at Dibon by the German missionary Klein in 1868, the Hebrew inscription, probably of the time of Ezechias, found in the Siloam tunnel beneath the hill of Opiel, and the Greek inscription discovered by Clermont-Ganneau.

 Amazon.com: Christ and Culture: Books: H. Richard Niebuhr   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Niebuhr called the subject of this book "the double wrestle of the church with its Lord and with the cultural society with which it lives in symbiosis." And he described various understandings of Christ "against," "of," and "above" culture, as well as Christ "transforming" culture, and Christ in "paradoxical" relation to it.
Niebuhr's views, historical, cultural and religious, were solidly based in the context and culture of the late 40's and early 50's.
Niebuhr's book has been seen as a classic for nearly half a century now, and to be honest, when I first read it I too was captivated by his typology: Christ Against Culture, Christ of Culture, Christ Above Culture, Christ and Culture in Paradox, and Christ the Transformer of Culture.

But that pain is lost in the glow of a supreme faith in man, faith born of the conflicts he himself has known and of the doubts and fears that are the lover's and the poet's fate.
Niebuhr was Chairman of the Commission on Church Union of the Evangelical Synod of North America, and therefore had a major role in its merger with the Reformed Church in the United States.

In the second half of the 18th century such men as J. Winckelmann (1717-1268) and G. Lessing (1729-1781) gave a new life to the study of the antique.
Thus tried, he was found wanting; and he was condemned with all the rigour of a newly illuminated zeal.
Niebuhr (1776-1831) judged him harshly; but no critic approached A. Schlegel (1767-1845) in severity of onesided censure.
