Wolf Wilhelm Friedrich Graf von Baudissin (26 September 1847 – 6 February 1926) was a German Protestant theologian who was a native of Sophienhof, near Kiel.
In 1876 he was appointed associate professor of theology at the University of Strassburg, where four years later he gained a full professorship.
[1] Theologian Franz Delitzsch and Orientalist Heinrich Leberecht Fleischer were major influences in his career.
Baudissin was a prominent figure in the Religionsgeschichtliche Schule (School of Religious History).
He is largely remembered for his work involving analysis of various ancient Semitic faiths in order to clarify the religious meaning of the Biblical Old Testament.
