Georg Rcinhold Pauli, a German historian, born in Berlin, May 25, 1823. He studied at Berlin and Bonn, went to Great Britain in 1847 to pursue historical researches, and from 1849 to 1852 was private secretary of Baron Bun-sen in London. He became Docent at Bonn in 1855, and professor of history at Rostock in 1857, and at Tubingen in 1859. The objection of the Wurtemberg authorities against his strictures on their political course put an end to his connection with the latter university in 1866. In 1867 he received from the Prussian government the chair of history at Marburg, and in 1870 at Gottingen. His principal works are: Konig Alfred und seine Stellung in der Geschichte Englands (Berlin, 1851; English translation, edited by Thomas Wright, London, 1852; another, 1853); the continuation of Lappenberg's Geschichte von England from the 12th to the 16th century (vols, iii.-v., Gotha, 1853-8); an editidh of Gower's Confessio Amantis (3 vols., London, 1857); Bilder aus Alt-England (Gotha, 1860; English translation by E. C. Otte, London, 1861); Geschichte England's seit den Friedensschliissen von 1814 und 1815 (2 vols., Leipsic, 1864-'7); Simon von Montfort, Graf von Leicester, der Schopfer des Hauses der Gemeinen (Tubingen, 1867); and Aufsatze zur englischen Geschichte (Leipsic, 1869).
