Image Alfred Fleckeisen.JPG right thumb Carl Friedrich Wilhelm Alfred Fleckeisen Carl Friedrich Wilhelm Alfred Fleckeisen September 23, 1820, Wolfenb ttel August 7, 1899, Dresden was a German philologist and critic. He is best known for his work on Plautus and Terence . Biography He was educated at the Helmstedt gymnasium and the University of G ttingen . After holding several educational posts at Frankfurt am Main and Dresden , in 1861 he was appointed in the vice principalship of the Vitzthum Gymnasium at Dresden , which he held until his retirement in 1889. Fleckeisen is chiefly known for his labors on Plautus and Terence in the knowledge of these authors he was unrivalled, except perhaps by Friedrich Wilhelm Ritschl Ritschl , his lifelong friend and a worker in the same field. His chief works are Exercitationes Plautinae 1842 , one of the most masterly productions on the language of Plautus Analecta Plautina , printed in Philologus 1847 Plauti Comoediae Vols. I and II, 1850 1851, unfinished , introduced by an Epistula critica ad F. Ritschelium P. Terenti Afri Comoediae new ed., 1898 . In his editions he endeavoured to restore the text in accordance with the results of his researches on the usages of the Latin language and meter. He attached great importance to the question of orthography, and his short treatise F nfzig Artikel 1861 is considered most valuable. Fleckeisen also contributed largely to the Jahrb cher f r Philologie und P dagogik , the philology department of which he was for many years editor of.

Jacques Wirtz born 1924 is a Belgium Belgian landscape gardening landscape gardener . Wirtz was born in Schoten , a suburb of Antwerp . His family were stockbrokers. He studied landscape architecture at a horticultural school in Vilvoorde . He was forced to work in a Plant nursery nursery in Germany during the Second World War . He started his own business in 1950, as garden designer and later landscape architect. He has four children. His sons Martin born 1963 and Peter born 1961 joined the firm in 1990. It is the largest landscape design business in Belgium. Wirtz is particularly noted for his use of evergreen s clipped to create undulating clouds of foliage , creating a green architecture that lasts all year, together with a retrained palette of herbaceous planting. He believes that his gardens should preserve and enhance the spirit of place, rather than stamping his own mark on the landscape. He came to public notice after being commissioned to design the garden for the Belgian pavilion at Expo 70 in Osaka . Perhaps his largest public commission was the redesigned Jardin du Carrousel in the Tuileries Gardens in Paris , a long running project which started in 1990 and was completed in 2004. President Mitterrand also asked him to redesign the gardens at the lys e Palace 1992 . In addition to many small and large gardens for industrial or domestic settings, his firm has designed gardens in Belgium at Cogels Park in Schoten 1977 , the campus of Antwerp University 1978 , Bremweide Park in Antwerp 1978 , for the Belgian headquarters of BMW at Bornemat 1985 , a garden running ... , and Lancelot Brown .
