Alfred Trübner Nutt (22 November 1856 – 21 May 1910) was a prominent English publisher, folklorist, and Arthurian and Celtic scholar. Born in 1856 into a literary family in London, he took over his late father's publishing business in 1878 after studying in France and extensive European business apprenticeships.
Nutt made significant contributions to the field of folklore studies, founding The Folk-Lore Journal and presiding over The Folklore Society. His scholarly pursuits included significant research on the Celtic roots of the Grail legend, collaborative efforts with fellow scholars, and involvement in founding the Irish Texts Society. Nutt drowned while attempting to rescue his disabled son from the Seine in 1910.
