          Biography

          Loránd Eötvös is also known by the German version of Loránd, namely Roland. Had he only published in Hungarian, Eötvös would have achieved far less in the way of an international reputation so he published his most important results in German as well as Hungarian.

          To international scientists, therefore, he is known by the name which appeared on these German papers, namely Roland, Baron Eötvös. His full title is, however, far more grand: in Hungarian Vásárosnaményi Báro Eötvös Loránd; in English Roland, Baron Eötvös of Vásárosnaményi.

          Looking at a present day map of Hungary, Vásárosnaményi is close to its eastern border with Ukraine.

          Loránd's mother was Agnes Rosty.

          Eötvös was born on July 7, , in what is now known as Budapest, Hungary.

          His father was József, Baron Eötvös, a novelist, essayist, educator, and statesman, whose life and writings were devoted to the creation of a modern Hungarian literature and to the establishment of a modern democratic Hungary. He was a friend of Franz Liszt, the famous pianist and composer.
