[edit] Ranke and Hegel

I saw in some passing reference on the internet that Ranke and Hegel were at one point both on the same staff at Berlin (which university?) and were at the head of different faculty factions. Can this be confirmed? If it is true it is a very interesting point, since both Hegel and Ranke have very explicit attacks at each other in some of their fundamental writings, and it would add some context to their disagreement of ideas as well. --Fastfission 02:52, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Connection to E.H. Carr?

Ranke was also the great-uncle of British historian Edward Hallett Carr.

I just removed the above sentence. I guess it's technically possible, but I'd never heard that, and it's not cited. Can anyone confirm this so it can go back in? -- TheMightyQuill 18:30, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
