|known_for= Jurassic geology |prizes= }} William Joscelyn Arkell MA, D Phil, D Sc, FGS, FRS〔 (9 June 1904 – 18 April 1958) was a British geologist and palaeontologist, regarded as the leading authority on the Jurassic Period during the middle part of the 20th century.〔(geology of the Dorset coast with reference to Arkell's researches )〕 ==Childhood== Arkell was born in Highworth, Wiltshire, the youngest of a family of seven. His father, James Arkell was a partner in the prosperous family business ''Arkell's Brewery'' (which is still family owned today). His mother, Laura Jane Arkell was an artist of noted ability. He developed a deep love of the English countryside from an early age, perhaps gained from long family summer holidays spent at Swanage, Dorset. He was later educated at Wellington College in Berkshire, where his ability in Natural History was recognised and he was able to devote significant time to develop his knowledge of this subject. He was a regular prize winner for his natural history essays, one of which was a treatise on the Dorset Robber Flies (''Asilidae''). He privately published a set of poems, ''Seven Poems'', that reflected his love of nature and the outdoors. 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「William Joscelyn Arkell」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
