Johann Georg Graevius - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Johann Georg Graevius (properly Guava or Greffe) (January 29, 1632 - January 11, 1703), German classical scholar and critic, was born at Naumburg, Saxony. |
 | | Two years afterwards, on the recommendation of Gronovius, he was chosen to succeed that scholar at Deventer; in 1662 he was translated to the University of Utrecht, where he occupied first the chair of rhetoric, and from 1667 until his death, that of history and politics. |
 | | Graevius enjoyed a very high reputation as a teacher, and his lecture-room was crowded by pupils, many of them of distinguished rank, from all parts of the world. |
