He entered Christ's Hospital in 1775 and received his education there till 1787, when he matriculated at Pembroke College, Cambridge. He graduated B.A. in 1791, M.A. in 1794, and D.D. in 1815, and was known as a classical scholar. In 1795 he was awarded the Seatonian prize for an English poem, the subject being the ''Destruction of Babylon''. In 1796 he was appointed vicar of Ugley and perpetual curate of St Nicholas' Church, Berden in Essex. In 1799, on the resignation of James Boyer, Trollope was elected headmaster of Christ's Hospital.

He resigned his post at the school on 28 November 1826, and was succeeded by the second master, John Greenwood.〔 Trollope died at Colne-Engaine rectory on 24 May 1827.〔 He was a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of London.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Arthur William Trollope」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
