Johann Joseph Hoffmann
Johann Joseph Hoffmann (February 16, 1805 – January 23, 1878) was a noted German scholar who studied the Japanese and Chinese languages.
==Biography==
He was born at Würzburg. After studying at Würzburg, he went on the stage in 1825; but owing to an accidental meeting with the German traveller, Philipp Franz von Siebold (1796–1866), in July 1830, his interest was diverted to Oriental philology. From Siebold he acquired the rudiments of Japanese, and in order to take advantage of the instructions of Ko-ching-chang, a Chinese teacher whom Siebold had brought home with him, he made himself acquainted with Malay, the only language except Chinese which Ko-ching-chang could understand.
In a few years he was able to supply the translations for Siebold's ''Nippon'', and the high character of his work soon attracted the attention of older scholars. Stanislas Julien invited him to Paris, and he would probably have accepted the invitation, as a disagreement had broken out between him and Siebold, had not M. Baud, the Dutch colonial minister, appointed him Japanese translator with a salary of 1800 forms (£150).
