Ulrich von Hutten wrote at a period when the questions philosophy asked were themselves being renegotiated.
The record lists Ulrich von Hutten as German scholar, poet and reformer (1488-1523).
Ulrich von Hutten was born at Steckelberg Castle in 1488. His recorded nationality is Germany. He studied at University of Greifswald and Leipzig University.
Recovered classical texts and the printing press reopened questions that had been treated as settled for centuries.
Philosophical influence is measured in the questions a thinker made unavoidable.
That the work was done from Germany matters: philosophical traditions, institutions and the language of publication have never been evenly distributed.
Ulrich von Hutten died in 1523, aged 35. The arguments remain in print, which is the form in which philosophy survives.
