Heinrich Lausberg (October 12, 1912 - April 11, 1992) was a German philologist. Dedicated above all, with great rigor and influence, to the studies of Romanistics and Rhetoric, he produced in each one of these disciplinary fields works of recognized general value, both in an analytical sense and in what refers to his instrumental result. It deals, as instruments, with special organisms, particularly those of rhetorical material, with a radical taxonomic function destined for technical consultation.
