Gustav Hildebrand

Gustav Friedrich Hildebrand was a German classical philologist and educator who lived from 1812 to 1869. Records in Deutsche Biographie and Wikidata identify him as both a scholar of the classical world and a secondary-school teacher.

His published work shows a strong interest in Latin language and textual study. He is associated with works such as Glossarium latinum bibliothecae parisinae antiquissimum saec. IX, and library records note that he also worked on studies connected with Apuleius.

A biographical entry from Halle's digital collections outlines his career in education: after early teaching posts at the Lateinische Hauptschule, he later became director of the Gymnasium in Dortmund.
