Otto Jahn (; June 16, 1813 in Kiel – September 9, 1869 in Göttingen), was a German archaeologist, philologist, and writer on art and music. ==Biography== After the completion of his university studies at Christian-Albrechts-Universität in Kiel, the University of Leipzig and Humboldt University, Berlin, he traveled for three years in France and Italy. In Rome, he was greatly influenced by the work of August Emil Braun (1809-1856).〔(Dictionary of Art Historians - Otto Jahn ) @ A Biographical Dictionary of Historic Scholars, Museum Professionals and Academic Historians of Art〕 In 1839 he became ''privatdozent'' at Kiel, and in 1842 professor-extraordinary of archaeology and philology at the University of Greifswald (ordinary professor 1845). In 1847 he accepted the chair of archaeology at Leipzig, however, he along with Theodor Mommsen (1817-1903) and Moritz Haupt (1808-1874) were dismissed from the university in 1851 for having taken part in the political movements of 1848-1849.〔 In 1855 he was appointed professor of the science of antiquity, and director of the academic art museum at Bonn. While here, he turned down an offer as successor to Eduard Gerhard (1795-1867) at Berlin.〔(ADB:Jahn, Otto ) @ Allgemeine Deutsche Biographie〕 His biography of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart appeared in 1856, the centenary of Mozart's birth. The work is admired for its scholarly approach (at the time, novel in Mozart biography), and in versions revised by Hermann Abert and Cliff Eisen, continues in use today.〔(W. A. Mozart ) Yale University Press, Nov 30, 2007 - Hermann Abert〕 Among Jahn's notable students was the classical archaeologist and philologist Hugo Blümner. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Otto Jahn」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
