EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Robert Lowth, an influential figure in 18th-century England. The image showcases a distinguished-looking man, dressed in clerical clothing, gazing away from the camera with a thoughtful expression on his face. Robert Lowth was not only an English Anglican bishop but also a renowned scholar and author. Educated at Winchester College and New College, Oxford, he later became the Bishop of the Church of England and held the prestigious position of Oxford Professor of Poetry. His most notable contribution to academia was his influential textbook on English grammar. The photograph is part of "Biographical Illustrations" by Alfred Howard, published in 1830 by Thomas Tegg, R. Griffin and Co. , J. Cumming in London, Glasgow, and Dublin. It offers us a glimpse into history as we witness one man's dedication to both religion and education during this period. Lowth's portrait exudes intelligence and wisdom as he represents the intersection between literature, language studies, and religious devotion. This image serves as a reminder of his significant contributions to British society while highlighting his role as an esteemed professor at Oxford University. As we admire this engraving from nearly two centuries ago, it allows us to reflect upon how individuals like Robert Lowth shaped our understanding of language and influenced generations through their scholarly pursuits.
