Arthur George Rigg (17 February 1937 – 7 January 2019) was a British academic and medievalist.
Rigg dedicated himself to two initiatives designed to make the University of Toronto a high standard academic environment for learning and studying medieval Latin in North America.
Both initiatives were undertaken in close collaboration with the academic staff at the Pontifical Institute of Mediaeval Studies.
Rigg was the editor between 1972 and 2008 during which time thirty volumes were printed, including his own A Book of British Kings: 1200 BC–1399 AD.
[1] Rigg was elected a fellow of the Medieval Academy of America in 1997 and of the Royal Society of Canada in 1998,[2] and was granted emeritus status upon retirement in 2002.
