    "verified_text": "hausser, ludwig (1818-1867), german historian, was born at kleeburg, in alsace. studying philology at heidelberg in 1835, he was led by f. c. schlosser to give it up for history, and after continuing his historical work at jena and teaching in the gymnasium at wertheim he made his mark by his _die teutschen geschichtsschreiber vom anfang des frankenreichs bis auf die hohenstaufen_ (1839). next year appeared his _sage von tell_. after a short period of study in paris on the french revolution, he spent some time working in the archives of baden and bavaria, and published in 1845 _die geschichte der rheinischen pfalz_, which won for him a professorship _extraordinarius_ at heidelberg. in 1850 he became _professor ordinarius_. hausser also interested himself in politics while at heidelberg, publishing in 1846 _schleswig-holstein, danemark und deutschland_, and editing with gervinus the _deutsche zeitung_. in 1848 he was elected to the lower legislative chamber of baden, and in 1850 advocated the project of union with prussia at the parliament held at erfurt. another timely work was his edition of friedrich list's _gesammelte schriften_ (1850), accompanied with a life of the author. his greatest achievement, and the one on which his fame as an historian rests, is his _deutsche geschichte vom tode friedrichs des grossen bis zur grundung des deutschen bundes_ (leipzig, 1854-1857, 4 vols.). this was the first work covering that period based on a scientific study of the archival sources. in 1859 he again took part in politics, resuming his place in the lower chamber, opposing in 1863 the project of austria for the reform of the confederation brought forward in the assembly of princes at frankfort, in his book _die reform des deutschen bundestages_, and becoming one of the leaders of the \"little german\" (_kleindeutsche_) party, which advocated the exclusion of austria from germany. in addition to various essays (in his _gesammelte schriften_, berlin, 1869-1870, 2 vols.), hausser's lectures have been edited by w. oncken in the _geschichte des zeitalters der reformation_ (1869, 2nd ed. 1880), and _geschichte der franzosischen revolution_ (1869, 2nd ed. 1870). these lectures reveal all the charm of style and directness of presentation which made hausser's work as a professor so vital. see w. wattenbach, _lud. hausser, ein vortrag_ (heidelberg, 1867).",
