 JOHANN CASPAR VON ORELLI - LoveToKnow Article on JOHANN CASPAR VON ORELLI
His cousin, JOHANN CONRAD ORELLI (1770-1826), was the author of several works in the department of later Greek literature.
From 1807 to 1814 Orelli worked as preacher in the reformed community of Bergamo, where he acquired the taste for Italian literature which led to the publication of Contributions to the History of Italian Poetry (1810) and a biography (1812) of Vittorino da Feltre, his ideal of a teacher.
He took great interest in the struggle of the Greeks for independence, and strongly favored the appointment of the notorious J. Strauss to the chair of dogmatic theology at Zurich, which led to the disturbance of the 6th of September 1839 and the fall of the liberal government.

 JOHANN GEORG BAITER - LoveToKnow Article on JOHANN GEORG BAITER
Baiters strong point was textual criticism, applied chiefly to Cicero and the Attic orators; he was very successful in hunting up the best MS.
He had for some time been associated with Orelli in his great work on Cicero, and assisted in Ciceronis Scholiastae (1833) and Onomasticon Tullianum (1836-1838).
With Orelli and (after his death) HaIm, he assisted in the second edition of the Cicero, and, with Kayser, edited the same author for the Tauchnitz series (1860-1869).

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Johann and Wendelin Von Speyer
Early in 1460-61 Johann appears in Mainz as a "goldsmith" — it was there, no doubt, that he learned the art of printing books.
Before Johann died, four great works had been issued: two editions of Cicero; Pliny; and one volume of Livy.
Johann's clear type and his entire technical execution are surprisingly perfect.

And so there goes on again, from Johann George downwards, a new stream of Culmbach Princes, called the Younger or New Line,--properly two contemporary Lines, of Baireuthers and Anspachers;--always in close affinity to Brandenburg, and with ultimate reversion to Brandenburg, should both Lines fail; but with mutual inheritance if only one.
Kur-Brandenburg, Kur-Mainz, high cousins of George, were at this Diet of Augsburg; Kur-Brandenburg (Elector Joachim I., Cicero's son, of whom we have spoken, and shall speak again) being often very loud on the conservative side; and eloquent Kur-Mainz going on the conciliatory tack.

 From Pastor Herder on the classics
History always snubs the vanquished, of course, but beyond that Cleopatra is victim of the lavishly rewarded talents of Virgil, Horace, Propertius, and other priggish men dependent on imperial Roman patronage--in a word, victim of the great Classics and to the gossipy professors who adored them.
Let us stick to the topic of your intriguing discussion with Saint Augustine and Cicero, where my protegé Goethe so avidly interrupted you.
I reject the transcendental-respectable categories which you, Cicero, and indeed this Goethe in his maturer years, like to apply to art-- in order then endlessly to bicker about them.
