Born Joseph Hammer in Graz, Styria (now
Austria), he received his early education mainly in Vienna. Entering the
diplomatic service in 1796, he was appointed in 1799 to a position in the
Austrian embassy in Istanbul, and in this capacity he took part in the
expedition under Admiral William Sidney Smith and General John Hely-Hutchinson
against France. In 1807 he returned home from the East, after which he was made
a privy councillor.



In 1824 he was knighted (Chevalier).



For fifty years Hammer-Purgstall wrote prolifically on the most diverse subjects
and published numerous texts and translations of Arabic, Persian and Turkish
authors. He was the first to publish a complete translation of the divan of
Hafez into a western language.[1] By traversing so large a field, he laid
himself open to the criticism of specialists, and he was severely handled by
Heinrich Friedrich von Diez (1751–1817), who, in his Unfug und Betrug in der
morgenländischen Litteratur, nebst vielen hundert Proben von der groben
Unwissenheit des H. v. Hammer zu Wien in Sprachen und Wissenschaften (1815),
devoted to him nearly 600 pages of abuse. He also came into friendly conflict on
the subject of the origin of The Thousand and One Nights with his younger
English contemporary Edward William Lane.



He supported the foundation of the Austrian Academy of Sciences in Vienna and
became the Academy's first president (1847–1849). The Austrian Oriental Society,
founded in 1959 to foster cultural relations with the Near East, is formally
named 'Österreichische Orient-Gesellschaft Hammer-Purgstall' in recognition of
Joseph von Hammer-Purgstall's accomplishments.

In 1847 he received a medal commissioned by a friend of his, Ludwig August von
Frankl. The reverse references some of his works in pictures.



He died in Vienna on 23 November 1856.

Paws the vote is in and it got three out of three
Three puppies voted paws up for taste and a little bit of longevity. Now as for value for money. I know how much better than rawhide treats. But I’d like to see the price come down and more chewy’s inside the bag

So so small! Not worth $
The images in Amazon are nothing like what the product is. The pretzels and rings are minuscule. My two pit/lab mixes will eat one in about 30 seconds. So disappointment. Not worth the $ for what you’re getting. I tried to return items which are individually wrapped but they do not allow returns on these products. I have not opened any of them and still not able to return. If you have a dog under 15lbs these may work! If you have a large breed don’t bother. I’m so disappointed. Pictures above is the product next to a small milk bone biscuit (for reference).

Clean & quality but taste, meh
Flavor Name: Berry, Size: 30 Servings (8.0 Ounce) (Pack of 1)
I’ve ordered this product twice now. I do a wide array of workouts from weights to running to multi-functional. I’ve taken aminos from different companies for a long time but started to finally really research & felt much safer taking Thorne. The flavor isn’t the best if you add too much water. I’ve always added around 20oz to my intra-workout aminos with no problem but this one will get watered down. I adjusted and it’s been good. I’m also used to awful tasting soups and just powering through worse and this flavor is better than stuff I took up till the last few years. Newer people to using supplements might not like the flavor at all but trust me all workout supplements used to be awful. My recovery & muscle growth/lift gains have remained the same to the other products I’ve used with more mystery ingredients so there was no drop off there. I’m okay with taking a step back on taste and variety rather than putting mystery crap in my body from lesser regulated big companies. Product quality wins this for me & I’ve heard from multiple non-Thorne associated experts that vouched for Thrones testing.
