Albert Schweitzer

Albert Schweitzer was a theologian whose The Quest of the Historical Jesus remains a landmark, and a leading Bach organist and scholar, when he retrained as a doctor and in 1913 founded a hospital in Lambaréné, Gabon. He funded it partly through organ recitals and lecture tours in Europe, keeping all three careers running for decades. He received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1952; later critics questioned his paternalistic attitudes.
