Death date

[edit]

The German language version of Wikipedia (http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Kammerer) lists Kammerer's date of death as September 23 -- not October 23 -- 1926. Does anyone know which date is correct?

Brittanica also gives 23rd September Rjm at sleepers 09:30, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Aftermath

[edit]

The last three paragraphs of this section need references. The information may all come from Koestler, or from one or more of the books cited below. At the moment it reads like someone's views on the subject. Myrvin (talk) 19:50, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Third 'external link'

[edit]

The third 'external link' ('Kammerer and Seriality') is derisive and doesn't do Kammerer's earnest study justice, rather along the lines of the suspected Nazi plot to discredit PK referred to in paragragh 2. If it were such a simple matter to debunk Kammerer's work, why would figures like Einstein and Jung have given it the time of day, and the attention they did? This link arguably undermines the whole tenor of the article, playing along with a disturbing (& still largely unchallenged) likely historical Nazi character assassination effort.--194.83.172.121 (talk) 15:55, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Victim of anti-semitism?

[edit]

The German language entry on Kammerer refers to him being a victim of anti-semitism on account of his ancestry and/or parentage. It therefore seems a bit of an oversight on the part of the English version not to so much as address the matter!?--194.83.172.121 (talk) 13:10, 1 July 2012 (UTC) On the other hand, accusations of Jewish provenance from the Nazi era, however well-founded, need to be treated with some circumspection, especially considering Kammerer's political divergence from the Nazis.--87.86.123.67 (talk) 11:04, 14 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Choice of images

[edit]

The English language version has arguably chosen a more clownish, tousled photo image of Kammerer than the more complimentary, heroic one in the German version.--87.86.123.67 (talk) 11:07, 14 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Grammatical correction

[edit]

The final paragraph contained the ungrammatical passage "Gliboff goes on to challenge strong that Kammerer was given credit for discovery of parent-of-origin effect . . .".

I have corrected this grammatically, but others may wish to confirm that my interpretation corresponds to the source. {The posater formerly known as 87.81.230.195} 188.220.175.176 (talk) 11:42, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
