Born in 1919 in Roosendaal, Netherlands, where he studied from 1923 up till 1946, learning a lot of languages, literature, sciences, music and philosophy. Hoping to contribute in a developing country with the knowledge he received in Holland, he worked in Brazil in schools and community radio programs and offered free courses. In the sixties he took a medical course in the Federal Rio University where he later became a lecturer for Genetics. In the seventies he was the first to complete a master degree in philosophy at the Rio Gama Filho University. During those years he was called to lecture as a philosophy professor at the Federal University of Vitoria Espirito Santo State, where he stayed till his obligate retirement at his seventieth year. At the same time he was called as a lecturer for Histology, Citology and Genetics at the Medical School of Vitoria EMESCAM, where he worked for almost ten years. He participated as philosophical assistant in the postgraduate studies of Freudian Psychoanalysis and in a master course for Psychoanalysts in later years he was member and speaker for scientific and social congresses in the whole country and was a cofounder of the symphonic orchestra of the state and of a chamber orchestra of the University. In the eighties he did a doctoral course in Philosophy at the Federal Rio University and a free postgraduate course in Philosophy of Biology at the Leiden University in Holland. The more than eighty years of study naturally provoked fundamental changes in his views but what remained unchanged is a permanent curiosity and a grateful happiness to share humbly in some flashes of light illuminating human knowledge. Therefore he continues to be an old student.view less
