Henry Morley (15 September 1822 – 1894) was a writer on English literature and one of the earliest Professors of English Literature. ==Life== The son of an apothecary, he was born in Hatton Garden, London, educated at a Moravian school in Germany, and at King's College London, and after practicing medicine and keeping schools at various places, went in 1850 to London, and adopted literature as his profession. He wrote in periodicals (including ''Household Words'' and ''All the Year Round'' for Charles Dickens), and from 1859–1864 edited the ''Examiner''. From 1865–89, he was Professor of English Literature at University College London, where among his pupils was Rabindranath Tagore. From 1882 to 1889, he was principal of University Hall, as Arthur Hugh Clough had been a generation before. The building, on the west side of Gordon Square in the heart of Bloomsbury, at that time also housed Manchester New College, and is now the home of Dr Williams's Library. His biography was written by Henry Shaen Solly, the son of prominent reformer Henry Solly. 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「Henry Morley」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
