(Madame Curie) was a Polish-French physicist and chemist famous for her pioneering research on radioactivity.
She was the first person honored with two Nobel Prizes —in physics and chemistry. She was the first female professor at the
University of Paris, and in 1995 became the first woman to be entombed to rest along side Victor Hugo and other great figures under the
famous dome of the Pantheon in Paris for her own merits.

A German philosopher who was deeply influenced by the ideas of the German Dominican theologian, mystic, and
eclectic philosopher Meister Eckhart, the German mystic and theosophist Jakob Boehme, and other great scholars
of the Renaissance and the Enlightenment. He is most famous for his work The World as Will and Representation.
He is commonly known for having espoused a sort of philosophical pessimism that saw life as being essentially evil and futile.

profoundly influenced the fields of philosophy, psychology, and literature. (1788-1860)
