Richard Laughton
Richard Laughton (1670?–1723) was an English churchman and academic, now known as a natural philosopher and populariser of the ideas of Isaac Newton.
==Early life==
Originally from London, he was educated at Clare College, Cambridge, where he was admitted as a sizar in 1680. He graduated B.A. in 1685, proceeded M.A. in 1691, and was created D.D. by mandate in 1717.
About 1693 Laughton was chaplain to John Moore, the bishop of Norwich. In 1694 he was appointed tutor of his college, and in this capacity he acquired a reputation. John Colbatch, in his commemoration sermon preached in Trinity College Chapel, 17 December 1717, said of Laughton "We see what a conflux of nobility and gentry the virtue of one man draws daily to one of our least colleges".〔 More colloquially, he was called a "pupil-monger".〔Walter William Rouse Ball, ''A History of the Study of Mathematics at Cambridge'' (1889), pp. 75–6, (archive.org. )〕 Among his pupils were Martin Folkes, Benjamin Ibbot, and Robert Greene.〔 He encouraged the study of Newton's ''Principia''.
In politics Laughton was a Whig. He had the backing of Simon Patrick, the bishop of Ely, in college matters, who wrote to the Master of Clare, Samuel Blythe, on his behalf in 1697. Later Moore, who succeeded Patrick in the see, acted in the same way.〔John Gascoigne, ''Politics, Patronage and Newtonianism: The Cambridge Example'', The Historical Journal Vol. 27, No. 1 (Mar., 1984), pp. 1-24, at p. 13.
