polymath

polymath - noun - a person of great or varied learning; one acquainted with various subjects of study


Earlier in the list appears the word Autodidact describing a person who is self-taught. This word seems to go hand-in-hand with it. Good examples from history: Leonardo da Vinci, Julius Ceaser, Benjamin Franklin, Jack....

Actually, I always thought you were more the polymath, having, as you do, a wider range of knowledge.
