a German scholar, was born in 1536 at Wetter, near Marburg, and died February 16, 1596, at Heidelberg. Sylburg is known as the editor of some of the works of the Church fathers, to which he made annotations. Thus he edited the works of Clement of Alexandria, in Greek and Latin (Heidelberg, 1592), an edition which is still highly praised.
