Biographical History
C.C. Martindale was born on May 25, 1879 in Bayswater, London to Arthur Martindale and Marion McKenzie. He attended Harrow School in Greater London and, while a student there, converted to Catholicism from the Church of England.
Martindale entered the Society of Jesus on September 7, 1897, beginning his novitiate at Manresa House in Roehampton before transferring to Aix-en-Provence, France due to ill health. He studied Philosophy at Pope’s Hall (now Campion Hall), Oxford, where he won multiple academic prizes including the Gaisford Prize (Greek verse) and the Chancellor’s Prize (Latin verse).
Following his ordination at Ore Place, Hastings in 1911, Martindale returned to Oxford University for a position in the sub-faculty of Litterae Humaniores. In 1926, he was appointed by the Jesuit Provincial to organize the English Province’s celebrations for the bi-centenary of Saints Alyoisius and Stanislaus’ canonisations. In 1927, he departed Oxford to take a position at Farm Street Church, but continued to travel and write. Martindale was in Denmark at the outbreak of the Second World War, and was held as a German detainee in Copenhagen until the war’s end. Martindale died in London on March 18, 1963.
