Abstract
A study of intellectual and creative achievers in two periods of significant intellectual and creative achievement, 18th century Scotland and 15th century Florence, found that one of the most significant variables was longevity. Achievement, moreover, contrary to some earlier studies, was more or less continuous over the whole life span.Keywords
