Paul Gerhard Natorp (24 January 1854-17 August 1924) was a German neo-Kantian philosopher, and educationalist, of the Marburg school. He was known as an authority on Plato. He was an influence on the early work of Hans-Georg Gadamer and had a profound effect upon the thought of Edmund Husserl, the "father" of phenomenology. Further, it was to Natorp's scholarly influence and reputation that Husserl owed some of his success. His students included the philosopher and historian Ernst Cassirer, and the author of Doctor Zhivago, Boris Pasternak.
