Christian Brandanus Hermann Pistorius (12 May 1763[1] or 1765[2] – 9 November 1823) was a German writer and translator.
The eldest son of the Poseritzer provost Hermann Andreas Pistorius and his wife Sophie Juliane, daughter of provost Christian Anton Brunnemann in Bergen auf Rügen, he was taught by his father and tutors.
Without having attended a higher public educational institution, he proved his extensive knowledge in a number of scientific papers.
He wrote articles for various journals and produced translations from Latin and English.
Because of his unstable health he lived in his father's household until the latter's death in 1798.
