Abstract

The preparation of academic genealogical charts has been a natural way to crown the retirement celebrations for a distinguished scientist, especially a university professor. It appeared for the first time in Germany during the second half of the 19th century. The academic genealogical tree of Justus von Liebig (1803–1873), the famous German chemist who was professor at the University of Giessen from 1824 to 1852 and then at the University of Munich from 1852 to 1873, is probably the most well-known one, and can be admired at the Liebig Museum in Giessen, Federal Republic of Germany.
