Yes Ram, there are two of them. Both brothers. I mentioned it in post # 48
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->"Schlegel" is a whole family of them. Adolphus Schlegel, had many sons - of interest to us are "Augustus William Schlegel" born 1769, and "Frederich Von Schlegel" born 1772. The father Schlegel was a priest in Lutherian Church in England. The son Schlegels were early Indologists. These folks were Germans but were hired by East India Company.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
These folks were early Germans hired by East India Company. We need to discover more here - Why? Why would EIC hire German historians who are working in German and Dutch universities, and would continue to work there...
After these fellows there is a continuous pouring of German Indologists (some associated with East India Company)...and they will contibute mightily to AIT...
