  Jean Alexandre Buchon - LoveToKnow 1911
JEAN ALEXANDRE BUCHON (1791-1849), French scholar, was born on the 21st of May 1791 at Menetou-Salon (Cher), and died on the 29th of August 1849.
An ardent Liberal, he took an active part in party struggles under the Restoration, while throwing himself with equal vigour into the great work of historical regeneration which was going on at that period.
None of the numerous publications which we owe to Buchon can be described as thoroughly scholarly; but they have been of great service to history, and those concerning the East have in especial the value of original research.

In this contribution, Ross’s notes on Euboea are compared with contemporaneous reports by the historian Jean-Alexandre Buchon, the geologist Karl Gu¬stav Fielder and the philologist Heinrich Nicolaus Ulrichs.
The comparison reveals that Ross’s publication is valuable in the study not only of antiquity, but also of the cultural history of Euboea in the late Middle Ages and modern era, which is still too little regarded.

Die Regierung strebte dabei nicht nur die profunde Kenntnis der Antike an, sondern bemühte sich auch um den wirtschaftlichen Aufschwung des Landes.
In dem vorliegenden Beitrag werden Ross’ Euboia-Aufzeichnungen im Vergleich mit zeitgenössischen Beiträgen des Historikers Jean-Alexandre Buchon, des Geologen Karl Gustav Fielder sowie des Philologen Heinrich Nicolaus Ulrichs reflektiert.
Dabei zeigt sich, daß Ross’ Denkschrift nicht nur in Bezug auf die Antikenforschung wertvoll ist, sondern auch für die nach wie vor zu wenig beachtete Kulturgeschichte des spätmittelalterlichen und neuzeitlichen Euboias.
