Ferdinand Castets (1838-1921), medievalist. Castets was professor and later dean at the Faculté des Lettres de Montpellier, where he published editions of medieval texts, including Maugis d’Aigremont and the Montpellier manuscript of Il Fiore, which he tentatively attributed to Dante. His research focused on medieval poetry and literature, though his early work was on classical authors, including a doctoral thesis on the orator Aeschines. Castets also served in local politics as mayor of Montpellier under the Third Republic.
