    MEMOIR FREDERICK AUGUSTUS GENTH. 1820-1898. GEORGE F. BARKER. READ BEFORE THE NATIONAL ACADKMV, No vEM unit 12, 1901. (30) 201 BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR OF FREDERICK AUGUSTUS GENTH. The pure sciences are sometimes classified as independent and dependent sciences—i. e., as resting upon data solely their own or upon data borrowed from other sciences. Mathematics, physics, and chemistry may be adduced as instances of the former class of sciences; astronomy, mineralogy, and biology as instances of the latter class. Without the fundamental prin- ciples of mathematics and physics, for example, neither mathe- matical nor physical astronomy is possible. Moreover, the properties of minerals are classified either by their chemical composition, by their crystalline form, or by their optical prop- erties ; so that mineralogy as a science is dependent mainly upon physics and chemistry, and to some extent also upon mathe- matics ; so botany and zoology, except in so far as they are clas- sificatorv, are based upon the chemical and physical character- istics of the organisms they investigate and the forms they classify. Our eminent associate who is the subject of the pres- ent memoir took a high rank as an investigator in each of these divisions. His researches in chemistry are equaled in impor- tance only by those which he made in mineralogy. Both were of the highest order, and secured for him a very prominent po- sition among men of science. FRIEDRICH AUGUST LUDWIG KARL WILHELM GENTH was born in the village of Waechtersbach, in Hesse, on the 17th of May, 1820. On his father's side his family was an old Hesse-Nassau family, living for the most part in the neighborhood of Wies- baden.
