Friedrich von H%C3%BCgel


Friedrich von Hgel was an influential Austrian Roman Catholic layman, religious writer, Modernist theologian and Christian apologist.

Friedrich von Hgel was born in Florence, Italy, in 1852, to Charles von Hgel, who was serving as Austrian ambassador to the Grand Duchy of Tuscany, and a Scottish mother, Elizabeth Farquharson, who was a convert to Roman Catholicism. Friedrich was educated privately, and moved with his family to England in 1867 when he was fifteen, where he remained for the rest of his life. It has been suggested that Count Felix SumarokovElston, an ataman of the Kuban Cossacks, was his elder brother but as the Count was born in 1820 this is impossible, and the Count is more likely to have been his uncle, the son of von Hgels father.
