Thomas Parker Sanborn (; February 24, 1865 - March 2, 1889) was an American poet. The eldest son of abolitionist, social scientist, and memorialist of American transcendentalism Franklin Benjamin Sanborn, Thomas became a close friend of philosopher George Santayana and was a model for the protagonist in Santayana's only novel, The Last Puritan. With five college friends, Thomas founded ''The Harvard Monthly''. ==Early life==
Thomas Parker Sanborn was born to Franklin Benjamin Sanborn and Louisa Sanborn, née Leavitt, on February 24, 1865 in Concord, Massachusetts in a cottage on the grounds of The Old Manse, within gunshot of the famous battleground. He was named "Thomas" for Henry David Thoreau's friend, Thomas Cholmondeley and "Parker" for Theodore Parker. His schooling began in Springfield but was seriously undertaken only after his family returned to Concord in 1872, where Tom studied in the primary schools and was taught Latin and Greek by his father,〔Sanborn, Victor C.

His brother Victor Channing Sanborn would later write, "He was a sensitive and original child, much noticed by his elders, especially by Mr. Emerson and Ellery Channing,-- going to walk with the latter and with his father, as soon as he was able to keep up with older persons, in the wood-roads and pastures of Concord,-- their custom on Sunday afternoons for many years."〔 During the winter of 1880-1881, Thomas was a student at Phillips Exeter Academy in Exeter, following in the foot-steps of his father, also an alumnus.〔''Harvard College, Class of 1886: Secretary's Report''.
