==Life==
He was educated at Westminster School and Christ Church, Oxford. He was Fellow of Merton College, Oxford and became in 1813 Regius Professor of Modern History. He was curate of St Peter-in-the-East, Oxford, and then rector of Biddenden from 1798,〔''Like all Wealden villages, Biddenden was practically cut off every winter and sometimes throughout the year when any prolonged rain would turn the roads into a morass of mud. As recently as 1807 the Rev Edward Nares recorded that even with four horses harnessed to his carriage he could travel no more than three miles from his rectory.'' 〕 of New Church, Romney from 1827.〔''Concise Dictionary of National Biography''〕
He was Bampton Lecturer in 1805.〔''…Edward Nares could call on de Luc to support his nearly literal approach in his 1805 Bampton Lectures. However thirty years later Nares had joined the "Anti-geologists".''()〕 Orthodox on the Biblical account, he was speculative on the issue of the plurality of worlds.〔See (). He wrote an 1803 pamphlet on the topic. He is mentioned in Michael J. Crowe (1986), ''The extraterrestrial life debate 1750–1900. The idea of a plurality of worlds from Kant to Lowell''.〕
He wrote for the ''Anti-Jacobin''.() His novel ''Think's-I-to-Myself. A serio-ludicro, tragico-comico tale, written by Think's-I-to-Myself Who?'' (1811) caused a stir when it appeared and ran into eight editions by 1812.〔''The Letters of Sarah Harriet Burney'', ed. Lorna J. Clerk (Athens, GA, and London: University of Georgia Press, 1997), p. 134n.〕
