See also:STUDER, BERNHARD (1794-1887) , Swiss geologist, was See also:born at Buren, near Berne, in See also:August 1794. Although educated as a clergyman, he became so interested in See also:geology at the university of See also:Gottingen that he devoted his See also:life to its pursuit. He subsequently studied at See also:Freiburg, See also:Berlin and See also:Paris, and in 1816 was appointed teacher of See also:mathematics and physics in the Berne See also:Academy. In 1825 he published Beytrdge zu einer Monographie der Molasse. Later on he commenced his detailed investigations of the western See also:Alps, and published in 1834 his Geologie der westlichen Schweizer-Al See also:pen. In the same See also:year, largely through his See also:influence, the university of Berne was established and he became the first See also:professor of See also:mineralogy. His Geologie der Schweiz in two vols. (1851-1853), and his See also:geological maps of See also:Switzerland prepared with the assistance of See also:Arnold Escher von der See also:Linth, are monuments of his See also:research. In 1859 he organized the geological survey of Switzerland, being appointed See also:president of the See also:commission, and retaining this position until the See also:close of his life. It has been remarked by See also:Marcou that Studer was See also:present at the first See also:- MEETING (from " to meet," to come together, assemble, 0. Eng. metals ; cf. Du. moeten, Swed. mota, Goth. gamotjan, &c., derivatives of the Teut. word for a meeting, seen in O. Eng. Wit, moot, an assembly of the people; cf. witanagemot)

There he was turned from his purpose by King See also:Sebastian, with whom he sailed for See also:Morocco. He commanded the centre in the See also:battle of Alcazar on the 4th of August 1578, and was killed, in See also:fair fight apparently, though tradition asserted that he was murdered by his See also:Italian soldiers after the battle.
See also:Stucley's adventurous career made considerable impression on his contemporaries. A See also:play generally assigned to See also:George See also:Peele, The Battell of Alcazar . . . with the See also:Death of See also:Captain Stukely, printed by E. Allde in 1594, was probably acted in 1592, and is perhaps identical with a popular piece referred to by See also:Henslowe as Muley surnamed Abdelmilech. It deals with Stucley's arrival in Lisbon and his Moorish expedition, but in a See also:long speech before his death he recapitulates the events of his life.

Thomas See also:Stukeley, printed for Thomas Panyer (1605), which is possibly the Stewtlq played, according to Henslowe, on the 11th of See also:December 1596, is a See also:biographical piece dealing with successive episodes, and seems to be a patchwork of older plays on See also:Don See also:Antonio and on Stucley. His adventures also See also:form the subject of various See also:ballads.
There is a detailed See also:biography of Stucley, based chiefly on the See also:English, Venetian and See also:Spanish See also:state papers, in R. See also:Simpson's edition of the 1605 play (School of See also:Shakespeare, 1878, vol. I.), where the Stucley ballads are also printed.
