Biographical History

Thomas Arnold was an English deacon, reformer and historian, best known as headmaster of the Rugby School. After a distinguished educational career, he was appointed headmaster of the Rugby School, where his influence on students enhanced his reputation as the students made names for themselves after graduation. He also published social criticism, collections of his sermons, translations of classical works, and histories. An active social reformer, Arnold shared his liberal views as an educator, critic, and deacon. His son and student, poet and critic Matthew Arnold, was greatly influenced by his father's teaching and theories.
