Ludwig Woltmann
Ludwig Woltmann (born 18 February 1871 in Solingen; died 30 January 1907) was a German anthropologist, zoologist and neo-Kantian. He studied medicine and philosophy, and obtained doctorates in the two fields from the University of Freiburg in 1896. Ludwig Woltmann falls in the spiritual and ideological history of the 20th century with the racial theorists Arthur de Gobineau and Houston Stewart Chamberlain, in particular in terms of his racial theoretical thought. In his book ''Die Germanen und die Renaissance in Italien'' (1905), he argued that the emergence of the Renaissance in Italy was led not by the descendants of the Ancient Rome, Romans, but by the Germanic invasions, Germanic tribes who had subdued Italy during the Middle Ages. His ideas were mainly published by the journal ''Political-Anthropological Review'' (1902–1907) and in the book ''Political Anthropology'' written in 1903. This and two other of his books were published in a 1936 Otto Reche anthology. Publicati ...

It is located some 25 km east of Düsseldorf along the northern edge of the region called Bergisches Land, south of the Ruhr area, and, with a 2009 population of 161,366, is after Wuppertal the second-largest city in the Bergisches Land. It is a member of the regional authority of the Rhineland. Solingen is called the "City of Blades", since it has long been renowned for the manufacturing of fine swords, knives, scissors and razors made by famous firms such as WKC Stahl- und Metallwarenfabrik, WKC, DOVO Solingen, DOVO, Wüsthof, J. A. Henckels, Zwilling J. A. Henckels, Böker, Güde, Hubertus, Diefenthal, Puma, Clauberg, Eickhorn, Linder, Carl Schmidt Sohn, Dreiturm, Herder, and numerous other manufacturers.

People From Solingen
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of per ...
