Edmund Bolesław Fryde, FBA (16 July 1923 – 17 November 1999) was a Polish-born British historian of medieval England and the early Renaissance.
Fryde was a son of Mieczysław (Matthew) Fryde, a prominent Polish-Jewish lawyer and economic historian, and Salomea Ludwika (Sarah Louise) Rosenzweig, both originally from Częstochowa. He grew up in Warsaw and came to the United Kingdom to study at Bradfield College in 1938. He took his undergraduate degree at Balliol College, University of Oxford (1942–4) and completed his doctoral thesis there in 1947. He was Lecturer in Economic History, then Professor at the University College of Wales, Aberystwyth from 1947 to 1990. Over the course of his research career, he moved from the study of medieval economics to intellectual history.
Fryde was married to Natalie Davies, his former student, from 1966 to 1981. He was a cousin of the novelist Uri Orlev.
