STEINTHAL, HEYMANN (18231899) ,
German
  philosopher and philologist, was born at Grobzig in
Anhalt
  on the 16th of May 1823. He read
philosophy
  and philology at the university of Berlin, where he graduated in 185o. From 1852 to 1855 he studied
Chinese
  (language and literature) in Paris, and in 1863 became extraordinary
professor
  of philology at Berlin. In his philosophic theories he sympathized with Moritz Lazarus, in conjunction with whom he founded in 1859 the Zeitschrift fur Volkerpsychologie and Sprachwissenschaft. Like Lazarus and the Herbartian school in general, he attached supreme value to
psychology
 , and especially to the
psychology
  of society, the study of which, combined with
comparative
  philology, alone could give trustworthy results. In philology he was an admirer and
disciple
  of Wilhelm von
Humboldt
 , on whose methods he wrote several books.
His
principal
  works are Der Ursprung der Sprache im Zusammenhang mit den letzten Fragen alles Wissens (1851; 4th ed., 1888) ; Klassifecation der Sprachen (185o) ; Charakteristik der hauptsachlichen Ty en des Sprachbaues (186o) ; Die Entwickelung der Schrift (1852);ammatik, Logik, Psychologie, ihre Prinzipien, &c. (1885); Geschichte der Sprachwissenschaft bei den Griechen and Romern (1863; 2nd ed., 18891891); Die Mande-Negersprachen, psychologisch and phonetisch betrachtet (1867) ; Abriss der Sprachwissenschaft (2nd ed., 1881) ; Allgemeine Ethik (188o); Zu Bibel and Religionsphilosophie (1890 and 1895). His books on von
Humboldt
  appeared in 1848, 1864 and 1867, and in 1884 he published an edition of his works.
