Alois Riehl
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Alois Adolf Riehl (b. 27 April 1844 in Bolzano, South Tyrol, then in Austria, now in Italy; d. 21 November 1924 in Berlin) was an Austrian philosopher.
Brother of Josef Riehl, he was a Neo-Kantian and worked as a professor at Graz, Freiburg and finally in Berlin, where he commissioned Mies van der Rohe to design his house in Neubabelsberg.
For Alois Riehl philosophy was not the teaching of Weltanschauung, but principally a criticism of perception.
Riehl was buried in the Alter Friedhof von Klein-Glienecke.
His wife Sofie, was the Aunt of Frieda Gross, the wife of the Austrian medical doctor, scientist and revolutionary, Otto Gross.
