Christoph Florentius Kött (1801, St. Martin - 1873, Fulda), German bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Fulda
Christoph Florentius Kött (7 November 1801, St. Martin - 17 October 1873, Fulda) was a bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Fulda from 1848 to 1873.
Reportedly, Peter Brook's film King Lear and Roman Polanski's Macbeth (both made in 1971) were influenced by Kott's view of Shakespearean high tragedy in relation to the 20th-century "nightmare of history".
