Octavianus Camerani (Octavianus Gamerani/Ottaviano Camerani di Ravenna, d. 1658)

Octavianus Camerani (Octavianus Gamerani/Ottaviano Camerani di Ravenna, d. 1658) OFMConv. Italian Convential friar and theologian. First rector of the Vienna order gymnasium and in 1625 the first professor of theology at Vienna University. Shortly afterward, he became the personal theologian of Emperor Ferdinand II. After Ottaviano's return to Italy, he befriended Bartolomeo Mastri, helping him with the edition of his philosophical and theological works. In 1647, Ottaviano wrote a defense of Mastri against the attacks of Matteo Ferchio (published in 1650). He died in Ravenna in 1558, and was buried before the main altar of the Conventual Franciscan church.
