John Ker (Latin poet) : ウィキペディア英語版 | John Ker (Latin poet)
John Ker (died 1741) was a Scottish schoolteacher and academic, a classical scholar known as a neo-Latin poet. ==Life== Ker was born at Dunblane, Perthshire, and was for a time schoolmaster at Crieff. About 1710, after examination by ministers and professors, he became a master in the Royal High School, Edinburgh. In 1717 he was appointed professor of Greek in King's College, Aberdeen, the first specialist teacher of the subject there, despite his admiration for the uncompromising Jacobite Archibald Pitcairne. On 2 October 1734 Ker succeeded Adam Watt in the Latin chair at Edinburgh University. He studied law, and was a popular teacher, if (in the view of Alexander Carlyle) deferential to students from the nobility. He died at Edinburgh in November 1741.〔
