Gustav Adolf Bergenroth (February 26, 1813, Oletzko, East Prussia - February 13, 1869, Madrid) was a German historian. Bergenroth held a State office, but was dismissed and exiled because of his sympathy with the revolutionary movement of 1848. He went to England to collect materials for a history of the Tudors. He examined in Simancas, in Spain, under great privations, papers on the period in the public archives, made of these a collection and published it in 1862-1868, under the title of Calendar of Letters, Despatches, &c., relating to Negotiations between England and Spain.

Famous quotes containing the word adolf:
“The thing with Catholicism, the same as all religions, is that it teaches what should be, which seems rather incorrect. This is “what should be.” Now, if you’re taught to live up to a “what should be” that never existed—only an occult superstition, no proof of this “should be”Mthen you can sit on a jury and indict easily, you can cast the first stone, you can burn Adolf Eichmann, like that!”
—Lenny Bruce (1925–1966)
