Temple Stanyan (1675–1752)〔 was an English politician and author. He is known for his ''Grecian History'', first published in 1707, which became a standard work on the history of ancient Greece in the early part of the 18th century. ==Early life== Stanyan was born on 8 February 1675 at Monken Hadley, then part of Middlesex. He was one of eight children of Lawrence Stanyan (d. 1725), merchant, farmer, and commissioner of the revenue, of Monken Hadley, and Dorothy Stanyan (''nee'' Knapp). One of his older brothers was Abraham Stanyan, who would later serve as the British ambassador to Switzerland, the Ottoman Empire and to Austria. His maternal uncle was Sir Richard Temple, 3rd Baronet, after whom he may have been named. Stanyan entered Westminster School in 1691 as a Queen's Scholar. He enrolled at Christ Church, Oxford in June 1695 but did not take a degree.〔 In May 1697, Sir Richard Temple died and Stanyan inherited one of his properties, Rawlins Manor (Woodcote Manor) in Oxfordshire.
