Johann Daniel Lange (Jéann Daniel L'Ange) was a 17th century German fencing master. He was born in Darmstadt in the early 17th century. He seems to have been an initiate of the tradition of Salvator Fabris, and served as master to both the Electoral Palatinate court at Castle Heidelberg and the University of Heidelberg.[1]

In 1664, Lange published a fencing manual entitled Deutliche und grůndliche Erklårung der Adelichen und Ritterlichen freyen Fecht-Kunst ("A Clear and Thorough Explanation of the Noble, Chivalric, and Free Art of Fencing"), a relatively brief illustrated treatise on the use of the single rapier.
