In 1856 he went with his parents to Vienna, where he received his early education. Subsequently he studied classical philology at the University of Vienna under Vahlen, Gomperz, Hoffmann, and Hartel (Ph.D. 1874). In 1875 he studied for half a year in Italy, and became privatdozent in classical philology at the University of Vienna in 1877.
