Christoph Meiners (17471810) was one of the most unusual members of Göttingen University, which he belonged to from 1767 to 1810 as a student and professor. What made his work unusual was that, for example, he spent more than 40 years publishing in all fields of philosophy and historiography, in many areas of the popular philosophy of the time, and as a travel author.
