Dear Prof Rocher,

I think the biography of Benfey you are looking for is the same as the one that is included in his Kleine Schriften (ed. A. Bezzenberger, vol. 1, pp. vii-xl; the Frankfurt episode pp. xiii-xvii therein).

Unfortunately I don't have a pdf of that book or a scanner at hand right now...

Maybe somebody else on the list can provide you with those pages.

Best regards from Hannover

Tim

Might a kind colleague be able and willing to share a copy in any form of Meta Benfey's biography of her father, Theodor Benfey, apparently privately printed in 1909? I am particularly interested in his early years in Frankfurt (1830–1832) and Heidelberg (1832–1834). According to Windisch's Geschichte der Sanskrit-Philologie, the relevant section would include pages 19–20.

With thanks and best wishes,
Rosane Rocher
