Wilhelm Schmidt

Although he was born into humble circumstances in Hörde, a small town in Westphalia (western Germany), Father Wilhelm Schmidt became a lifelong student of the world as a leading authority in his day on linguistics, ethnology, and comparative religion. At the age of 15, he entered the mission school of the Society of the Divine Word (Societas Verbi Divini, SVD), at Steyl, in the Netherlands. [Source: Encyclopedia of Anthropology; Schmidt, Wilhelm]
