Wolfgang Leinberer (Stuttgart, October 19, 1635 – Altötting, June 22, 1693) was a priest in the Society of Jesus. He was German astronomer, philosopher, mathematician and professor, considered as "the most enthusiastic, even ingenious disciple in Rome of the famous mathematician Father Athanasius Kircher".[1]
He taught grammar, humanities, rhetoric, mathematics and philosophy at the University of Ingolstadt. At the same institution, he was also a master of novices and rector. He worked as a socius of the Provincial for five years and an instructor of third-year priests in Altötting, a position which he kept until his death.[2]
