'''Hermann Bonitz''' (29 July 1814{{snd}}25 July 1888), German scholar, was born at [[Langensalza]] in [[Prussian Saxony]].<br />
<br />
Having studied at the [[University of Leipzig]] under [[Johann Gottfried Jakob Hermann|G. Hermann]] and at [[University of Berlin|Berlin]] under [[Philipp August Böckh|Böckh]] and [[Karl Konrad Friedrich Wilhelm Lachmann|Lachmann]], he became successively teacher at the [[Blochmann-Institut]] in [[Dresden]] (1836), ''Oberlehrer'' at the [[Friedrich Wilhelm Gymnasium]] (1838) and the [[Graues Kloster]] (1840) in Berlin, professor at the gymnasium at [[Szczecin|Stettin (Szczecin)]] (1842), professor at the [[University of Vienna]] (1849), member of the [[Austrian Academy of Sciences|Imperial Academy of Sciences]] (1854), member of the council of education (1864), and director of the [[Evangelisches Gymnasium zum Grauen Kloster|Graues-Kloster-Gymnasium]] (1867).

<br />
He took great interest in higher education, and was chiefly responsible for the system of teaching and examination in use in the high schools of [[Prussia]] after 1882. But it is as a commentator on [[Plato]] and [[Aristotle]] that he is best known outside Germany. He also wrote largely on classical and educational subjects, mainly for the ''[[Zeitschrift für die österreichischen Gymnasien]]''.<ref name="EB1911" /><br />
