Leopold Prowe
Leopold Friedrich Prowe (14 October 1821 - 26 September 1887) was a German historian and gymnasium instructor, born as the son of a town councillor of Thorn in West Prussia (now in Poland), the town where in 1473 Polish astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus was born. Prowe compiled a comprehensive German language biography of Copernicus, titled ''Nicolaus Coppernicus''.〔With the spelling with ''pp'' used by the astronomer himself in most cases, especially in official documents. Based on over two dozen signatures of the astronomers, of which more than 74% use the spelling with two p, Prowe and Curtze came to the conclusion that the form ''Coppernicus'' is the best form to represent the chosen name of the astronomer (and the form ''Koppernick'' for his family). - Maximilian Curtze: ''Ueber die Orthographie des Namens Coppernicus.'', in the foreword to ''Nicolaus Coppernicus aus Thorn über die Kreisbewegungen der Weltkörper'', 1879 (de.wikisource.org )〕
==Life==
Prowe studied in Leipzig and Berlin and then returned home to become a teacher at the gymnasium of Thorn. In 1839, a local "monument committee" had been founded with the intention to erect a monument, which was created by Friedrich Tieck of Berlin, and erected posthumously in 1853. The activities then continued in a society for science and arts, called ''Coppernicus-Verein für Wissenschaft und Kunst zu Thorn'', headed by Prowe for many years.
