    <p><font size="3" face="Arial">Heinroth, the son of a
    surgeon, initially studied medicine in the town of his birth.
    He then travelled via Rome to Vienna, where he continued his
    studies under the tutelage of Johann Peter Frank. Afterwards
    he studied theology for a short period in Erlangen before
    returning to Leipzig where he was awarded a doctorate in
    medicine and qualified to lecture in 1806. In the years of
    war which followed, he was forced to interrupt his studies
    and served as a military doctor. In 1810 he returned to
    lecturing and also published his first important work, the <i>Beytr�ge
    zur Krankheitslehre</i> (contributions to the study of
    illness). Heinroth, who became an extraordinary professor in
    1811 and a full professor of physical medicine in 1827,
    remained loyal to Leipzig despite lucrative offers from
    Dorpat and St Petersburg. He died while serving as Dean in
    1843.</font></p>
    <p><font size="3" face="Arial"><i>St�rungen des Seelenlebens</i>
    (disorders of the soul, 1818) and<i> System der
    psychisch-gerichtlichen Medizin</i> (a system of
    physical-forensic medicine, 1825) are considered to be
    Heinroth's most important works. In his philosophical
    studies, he favoured the views espoused by Herder while
    distancing himself from Schelling, Fichte and particularly
    from Hegel. </font></p>
