Ferdinand Justi 2 June 1837 in Marburg Germany - 17 February 1907 in Marburg was a German linguist and Orientalist. He finished his studies of linguistics at the University of Marburg and the University of Göttingen. In 1861 he lived in Marburg where in 1865 he became associate and in 1869 full professor of comparative linguistics and Germanic philology. In addition to his academic work he studied with meticulous precision the life of the Hessian peasants in the last third of the 19th century especially in the immediate and wider area of Marburg on which he wrote his observations and described it in countless sketches and watercolors. One of his main themes included buildings furniture agricultural implements and especially costumes with all its subtleties and accessories. Wikipedia unknown
