Although no one can ever be certain, elements of Rudolf II behaviour and personality are
consistent with
Asperger's Syndrome, a form of high IQ autism. Diamond Dave (8 November, 2005)
Anyone know why Rudolf II gets a "II" as his ordinal? He is the first Holy Roman Emperor and first ruler of Germany of that name. --

The statement "He patronized natural philosophers such as the botanist Charles de l'Ecluse..."
seems inaccurate; or at least, inconsistent with the article linked to, on Carolus Clusius (latinized name of Charles de l'Écluse) which states "In 1573 ... he was appointed prefect (director) of the imperial medical garden in Vienna by Emperor Maximilian II (1564–1576) and made Gentleman of the Imperial Chamber. ... Clausius was discharged from the imperial court shortly after the death of Maximilian and accession of his son Rudolf II (1576–1612) in 1576."
Seems like Maximilian was L'Ecluse's patron, not Rudolph. The only mention of Rudolf II in the article on l'Ecluse is that he fired him shortly after becoming emperor.
