[Karl Sudhoff's contribution and position to history of stomatology].

Among the few German medicohistorians of the 19th and the early 20th century contributing essentially to the formation of history of stomatology and to its methodologic and cognitive progress. Karl Sudhoff was the most eminent one. He was already very early aware of the full responsibility for stomatology--transferred with the stomatologie examination regulations in 1909--as a task relevant also for his special branch. Therefore, he had already announced stomatologicohistoric lectures at the University of Leipzig in 1913. Sudhoff published his "Geschichte der Zahnheilkunde" ("History of Stomatology") in 1921. Of topical interest is Sudhoff's confession that modern history of stomatology can be dealt with in an experienced and scientific manner only by a medico-historically aducated dentist familiar with the necessary methodologic equipment.

[Georg Ilberg (1862-1942). His life and medical-humanistic legacy].

Georg Ilberg, who is almost forgotten nowadays, was a scholar of Kraepelin and Ganser. From 1910 to 1928 he was director of the Landes-Heil- und Pflegeanstalt (country mental hospital) for mental patients Sonnenstein at Pirna. He was active in the scientific-literary field to a great age and worked as editor of the Allgemeine Zeitschrift für Psychiatrie from 1924 to 1934. Although he principally advocated the exclusion of certain mental patients from reproduction at the beginning of the 1930s, in a review in 1942, his integer humanist basic position and his pronounced social feeling made him to protest in public against the putting to death of mental in-patients.
