 Now, a man who talks a Brazilian miles an hour, it's Ian Scholz, the 62nd philosopher. Ian Scholz, proto-feminist Nicea Floresta, was born in 1810 in Paparia, in what was soon to become the independent nation of Brazil. Not much is known about her childhood, but she was self-taught to an amazing degree, learning English, Portuguese, French, Italian. Even as revolts and unrest swirled around her, she was married off at 13. But it did not take. She returned to the shelter of her family. Her father, a lawyer, was assassinated in 1828 at the order of a powerful member of the state.
