Wilhelm Meyer-Lübke (Swiss Standard German: philologist of the Neogrammarian school of linguistics.
Biography
Meyer-Lübke, a nephew of
Berlin (with Johannes Schmidt). He obtained his PhD in Romance philology with a dissertation on Die Schicksale des lateinischen Neutrums im Romanischen (1883). After a stay in Italy, he qualified to lecture at Zürich and then attended lectures by Gaston Paris in Paris.[2][3]
While lecturing at Zürich in 1887, he was appointed associate professor of
Friedrich Diez (1794–1876).[3] However, Meyer-Lübke soon felt the difference between the cosmopolitan Vienna and provincial Bonn. He consoled himself with lecture tours and visiting professorships abroad. Meyer-Lübke was a leading Romance linguist of his time.[4]
