Terms of cause in Greek philosophy, Leipzig 1874
System of critical philosophy, 2 Volo., Leipzig 1874-1875 Human liberty and responsibility: a critical investigation, Leipzig 1876 He was the only son of a rich landowner. He could live a materially ensure-free life as a private scholar and lived occasionally in Berlin, Bonn and Gotha. Goering got sick in 1872 with rheumatism, in the following years he purged appreciably into depressions. He died by suicide. |

| Phony Benoni: There appears to be an error in the bio; the Goering Gambit at Leipzig 1877 was played against Wilfried Paulsen. We might chuckle at Goering's apparent lack of success with his brainchild, but note that the game with Paulsen was played in round one--and none of his other opponents gave Goering a chance to play it again. |

| Phony Benoni: (With apologies to Ogden Nash)
The One Pawn Göring is a beast,
The Two Pawn Göring is a feast.
But even if your chess ain't boring
You cannot play a Three Pawn Göring. |
