At its Stockholm meeting (1977), the Commission Postal Mail of the European Conference of Postal and Telecommunications Administrations (CEPT) established the common theme of Famous Celebrities for the 1980 European Brands. The Deutsche Bundespost chose Albertus Magnus and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz for their edition. The philosopher Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (born 1.7.1646 in Leipzig, died 14.11.1716 in Hanover) is one of the last great scholars of universal rank. He is considered the founder of German neo-scholastic philosophy. In the mathematical field he developed - independent of Newton - the differential and integral calculus. The invention of the first usable calculating machine is his work. He also found the physical law for the relation of kinetic energy with mass and velocity. Supported by Queen Sophie-Charlotte, Leibniz was able to found in 1700 in Berlin the "Societät der Wissenschaften," the later "Prussian Academy of Sciences," of which he became its first president. Leibniz's thinking has had a great influence on his time and on to Immanuel Kant and German idealism.
