Thomas Young The last True Know-It-All
托马斯杨,最后一个无所不知的人
Thomas Young (1773-1829) contributed 63 articles to the Enqfclopedia Britannica, including 46 biographical entries (mostly on scientists and classicists) and substantial essays on Bridge, Chromatics, Egypt, Languages and Tides.Was someone who could write authoritatively about so many subjects a polymath, a genius or a dilettante? In an ambitious new biography, Andrew Robinson argues that Young is a good contender for the epitaph "the last man who knew everything."

All these hypotheses were subsequently proved to be correct.
Later in his life, when he was in his forties, Young was instrumental in cracking the code that unlocked the unknown script on the Rosetta Stone, a tablet that was "found" in Egypt by the Napoleonic army in 1799. The stone contains text in three alphabets: Greek, something unrecognisable and Egyptian hieroglyphs. The unrecognisable script is now known as demotic and, as Young deduced, is related directly to hieroglyphic. His initial work on this appeared in his Britannica entry on Egypt. In another entry, he coined the term Indo-European to describe the family of languages spoken throughout most of Europe and northern India. These are the
