Stephanius

Stephan Hansen Stephanius (July 23, 1599 – April 22, 1650), born in Copenhagen, was a Danish historian in Sorø, appointed historiographer royal in 1639. His name is sometimes fully Latinized as "Stephanus Johannis Stephanius".

He published a Latin edition of the Gesta Danorum in 1645 titled Saxonis Grammatici Historiæ Danicæ Libri XVI. His notes on the Greek lexicon of Hesychius are included in the edition of that work by Joannes Alberti (Lugd. Bat. 1746); see the Praefatio p.XXXIV.
