Friedrich Marx (April 22, 1859 – October 17, 1941) was a German
classical philologist born in Bessungen — today part of the city of Darmstadt
.
In 1877 he began his study of classical
Leipzig (1899-1906) and finally at Bonn (1906-1927), where in 1917-18 he served as university rector
.
Marx is considered to be the last representative of the so-called Bonn school of classical philology, a scholastic entity that was initiated by
Filastrius' "Diversarum hereseon liber" (1898), fragments from the satirist Gaius Lucilius (1894-95) and a critical examination of "Rhetorica ad Herennium
" (1894); the latter work being published over several editions up to the year 1993.
From 1925 to 1934 he was editor of the journal Rheinisches Museum für Philologie ("Rhenish Museum for Philology").
