About Louis Lucien Bonaparte
Louis Lucien Bonaparte was a French philologist. The third son of Napoleon's second surviving brother, Lucien Bonaparte, he spent much of his life outside France for political reasons. After a brief political career, he focused on his academic work, which particularly centered on the Basque language and the Celtic languages. He attended the first Riunione degli Scienziati Italiani, a conference of scholars of natural sciences, at Pisa, and published some early work on scientific subjects in Italy. His first work on languages, called Specimen lexici comparativi, was published at Florence in 1847.
