Guido Faba

Guido Faba (c. 1190 – c. 1245) was a notary, scribe and teacher of rhetoric from Bologna. At least eleven works are attributed to him, all on rhetoric, mainly the ars dictaminis (art of letter writing). Although he wrote mainly in Latin, two of his works contain advice for using vernacular Italian in formal settings.
