No other teacher of modern times has had such a following. Among his favorite pupils may be mentioned Haller, the physiologist, and van Swieten and de Haen, the founders of the Vienna school. In Italy, too, there were men who caught the new spirit, and appreciated the value of combining morbid anatomy with clinical medicine.
But Wolff had no immediate successors. The school of Cuvier was lamentably deficient in embryologists; and it was only in the course of the first thirty years of the present century, that Prevost and Dumas in France, and, later on, Doellinger, Pander, Von Baer, Rathke, and Remak in Germany, founded modern embryology; while, at the same time, they proved the utter incompatibility of the hypothesis of evolution, as formulated by Bonnet and Haller, with easily demonstrable facts.
Would you say that a Bernese is not free, because he is subject to the sumptuary laws, which he himself had made." "Well, well, I wish the people made the laws everywhere." After this lively answer, he abruptly asked me what part I came from. "From Roche," said I. "I should have been very sorry to leave Switzerland without seeing the famous Haller.
"You, Captain, have most cause to be grateful for the character of the missile." "By my sowl, I don't know about that! a shell or a twenty-four would have grazed me all the same; but a big shot would have been mighty inconvanient to the head of my friend Haller, here!" This was true. My head was nearly in range; and had the shot been a large one, it would have struck me upon the left temple.
Haller, the ovulist, who had great authority as a physiologist, in a famous work, Elementa physiologiae, upheld the principle vigorously: "Nulla est epigenesis. Making a calculation based on Biblical cosmogony of the number of human beings who were packed in the ovaries of Eve, he reckons them at two hundred thousand millions.
But, indeed, there is no need to speak of safe-conduct or articles, whilst they will hold the disputation at Baden. Berchthold Haller, preacher at Bern, joined him.
My betrothal to Hans Haller was after his own heart; he wrote of him as of a man whose gifts and birth were worthy of me; and went on to say that he would follow his example, and, whereas he had renounced love in seeking a bride, he would take counsel of his head, and not of his heart, and quarter our ancient coat of arms with one no less noble.
Perhaps it would end ere the sun sank to rest in the Haller meadows. He must deem every hour that he was permitted to breathe as a gift, like the earnest money he, placed in the trainer's hand in a horse trade. According to human judgment the lightning should have killed him as well as the horse.
That prepared by Tofania appears to have been a clear insipid water, and the sale of aqua fortis was for a long time forbidden in Rome, because it was considered the principal ingredient. This, however, is not probable. Haller was of this last opinion. In the casket of St.
In the style which had hitherto prevailed, one could not distinguish the commonplace from what was better; since all were brought down to a level with each other. Authors had already tried to escape from this wide- spread disease, with more or less success. Haller and Ramler were inclined to compression by nature: Lessing and Wieland were led to it by reflection.
