PRELLER, LUDWIG (18091861) ,
German
  philologist and antiquarian, was born at Hamburg on the 15th of September 18og. After having studied at
Leipzig
 , Berlin and
Gottingen
 , in 1838 he was appointed to the professorship of philology at Dorpat, which, however, he resigned in 1843. He afterwards spent some time in
Italy
 , but settled in Jena in 1844, where he became professor in 1846. In the same year he removed as head librarian to
Weimar
 , where he died on the 21st of June 1861. His
chief
  works are: Demeter u. Persephone (1837); Griechische Mythologie (18541855; 4th ed., by C. Robert, 1887 seq.); and Romische Mythologie (1858; 3rd ed. by H. Jordan, 18811883). He also co-operated with H. Ritter in the preparation of the most useful Historia philosophcae graecae et romanae ex fontium locis contexta (1838; ed. E. Wellmann, 1898). He contributed extensively to Ersch and Gruber's Allgemeine Encyklopadie and Pauly's Realencyklopadie der classischen Altertumswissenschaft. A complete
list
  of his works will be found in Ausgewahlte Aufsatze aus dem Gebiete der klassischen Altertumswissenschaft (ed. R. Kohler, 1864).
