Albert S. Gatschet

    Albert Gatschet fu un distinto filologo ed etnografo il cui lavoro di vita si concentrò sullo studio delle lingue dei nativi americani. Dimostrando una notevole attitudine linguistica fin dalla giovane età, i suoi studi accademici lo portarono alle Università di Berna e Berlino. Il suo primo lavoro sull'etimologia dei toponimi svizzeri rimane un'autorità standard. La passione di Gatschet per la lingua lo portò infine negli Stati Uniti, dove divenne un pioniere nella ricerca delle lingue indigene americane, con conseguenti pubblicazioni significative sui popoli Karankawa e Klamath. Profondo e ampio nella sua conoscenza, e ispirato da Humboldt, lasciò un segno indelebile nel suo campo.
