Ludwig Traube (palaeographer)

Ludwig Traube (June 19, 1861 – May 19, 1907) was a German paleographer and held the first chair of Medieval Latin in Germany while at the University of Munich. He was a son of the physician Ludwig Traube (1818–1876), and the brother of the chemist Margarete Traube (1856–1912).^[1]

Traube made pioneering contributions to medieval manuscript studies and especially paleography, arguing that these were not merely technical "Hilfswissenschaften", but autonomous areas of intellectual and cultural history.^[2]
