Ignazio Guidi
Ignazio Guidi (1844 – 18 April 1935) was an Italian orientalist. He became Professor at the University of Rome. He is known as a Hebraist and for many translations.
He learned semitic languages from Pius Zingerle and Father Vincenti, and taught himself Ge'ez.[1]
He discovered the Khuzistan Chronicle,[2] and edited the Chronicle of Edessa.
He also edited for the first time a letter of Simeon of Beth Arhsham about the martyrs of Najran, the oldest evidence for this historical event.
