Born Joseph Hammer in Graz, Styria (now
Austria), he received his early education mainly in Vienna. Entering the
diplomatic service in 1796, he was appointed in 1799 to a position in the
Austrian embassy in Istanbul, and in this capacity he took part in the
expedition under Admiral William Sidney Smith and General John Hely-Hutchinson
against France. In 1807 he returned home from the East, after which he was made
a privy councillor.



In 1824 he was knighted (Chevalier).



For fifty years Hammer-Purgstall wrote prolifically on the most diverse subjects
and published numerous texts and translations of Arabic, Persian and Turkish
authors. He was the first to publish a complete translation of the divan of
Hafez into a western language.[1] By traversing so large a field, he laid
himself open to the criticism of specialists, and he was severely handled by
Heinrich Friedrich von Diez (1751–1817), who, in his Unfug und Betrug in der
morgenländischen Litteratur, nebst vielen hundert Proben von der groben
Unwissenheit des H. v. Hammer zu Wien in Sprachen und Wissenschaften (1815),
devoted to him nearly 600 pages of abuse. He also came into friendly conflict on
the subject of the origin of The Thousand and One Nights with his younger
English contemporary Edward William Lane.



He supported the foundation of the Austrian Academy of Sciences in Vienna and
became the Academy's first president (1847–1849). The Austrian Oriental Society,
founded in 1959 to foster cultural relations with the Near East, is formally
named 'Österreichische Orient-Gesellschaft Hammer-Purgstall' in recognition of
Joseph von Hammer-Purgstall's accomplishments.

In 1847 he received a medal commissioned by a friend of his, Ludwig August von
Frankl. The reverse references some of his works in pictures.



He died in Vienna on 23 November 1856.

An excellent strapless option
Size: XX-Large, Color: Nude
Extremely comfortable! It didn’t slip down like some do, so I don’t feel the need to tug it up. Felt like I wasn’t wearing anything at all. I also like that it comes with optional straps. Great coverage. The two things to watch for is the top seam is a little thick, so it won’t work under thin tops, and the pads will move around, but they are easy to adjust or remove. On the whole I find this a great fit and easy to wear, at an excellent price point.

Great!
Size: XX-Large, Color: Nude
REVIEW FROM A REAL PERSON WITH NO FINANCIAL INCENTIVES This is my first time ever wearing a strapless bra and I really like this one! It's very comfy and feels like wearing any other sports bra just, well, without the straps (though they do include straps in the box that you could attach if you wanted). I'm somewhere around a 40DDD and got a 2x and it fits well, though I did wear it to work one day and by the end of the day, it did feel like it was digging/squeezing into my side a bit too much (however it had been 10hrs by then). The bra IS stretchy but if I were really any bigger, I think I'd want to go to a 3x. Only very minor issues with it slipping, nothing even close to where I was worried anything was going to pop out or anything, even after being out in 90F heat.

Stays in place
Size: Medium, Color: White
I’d give the Letts Jolli Push-Up Strapless Bra a solid 3 stars. The fabric quality is actually really nice—it feels soft, smooth, and comfortable against the skin, which is a big plus for something strapless. It also does a great job staying in place. I didn’t have to constantly adjust or worry about it slipping down throughout the day, which is usually my biggest concern with strapless bras. That said, the “push-up” aspect was a bit disappointing. It didn’t really provide much lift or enhancement like I expected, so if you’re looking for noticeable cleavage, this might fall short. Overall, it’s comfortable and reliable for staying put, but it doesn’t quite deliver on the push-up promise.

It holds the girls up!
Size: Large, Color: Nude
This is absolutely the best strapless bra I have ever owned! It stays put, doesn’t ride up or ride down & I don’t have to adjust it. It fits true to size. Worth the money! It’s also not the sexiest bra, but when you just want a strapless bra that holds the girls up, I promise it will do that!

Will be my go to strapless for sleeveless everything
Size: Medium, Color: Nude
Ok so, this did not disappoint. Supportive and has cups/padding so there's no show through. Stays in place. Sturdy will not roll on you or stretch out half way through your day/ evening. Straps are included but not necessary. Do not try to put on right out of the shower. You also need to step into it to pull up. Do not try to pull it over your head. Perfect for under spaghetti string tops/tube tops. I am 135 lbs, 34DD or a 36D depends on bra. I bought a medium and it holds everything tight. I believe I could also go with a large at this weight to have a little less compression.
