Oxford, was See also:born on the loth of See also:October 1813. He was the son of the rector of Hauxwell, See also:Yorkshire, and was privately educated by his See also:father. In 1832 he matriculated at See also:Oriel College, where he took his B.A. degree in 1836 with second-class honours. After other attempts to obtain a fellowship, he was elected in 1839 to a Yorkshire fellowship at Lincoln, an See also:anti-Puseyite College. Pattison was at this See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf.

He was ordained See also:priest in 1843, and in the same See also:year became See also:tutor of Lincoln College, where he rapidly made a reputation as a clear and stimulating teacher and as a sympathetic friend of youth. The management of the college was practically in his hands, and his reputation as a See also:scholar became high in the university. In 1851 the rectorship of Lincoln became vacant, and it seemed certain that Pattison would be elected, but he lost it by a disagreeable intrigue. The disappointment was acute and his See also:health suffered. In 1855 he resigned the tutorship,travelled in See also:Germany to investigate See also:Continental systems of See also:education, and began his researches into the lives of See also:Casaubon and See also:Scaliger, which occupied the See also:remainder of his See also:life. In 1861 he was elected rector of Lincoln, marrying in the same year See also:Emilia See also:Francis Strong (afterwards See also:Lady See also:Dilke). The rector contributed largely to various reviews on See also:literary subjects, and took a considerable See also:interest in social See also:science, even presiding over a See also:section at a See also:congress in 1876. The routine of university business he avoided with contempt, and refused the See also:vice-chancellorship. But while living the life of a student, he was fond of society, and especially of the society of See also:women. He died at See also:Harrogate on the 3oth of See also:July 1884. His See also:biography of See also:Isaac Casaubon appeared in 1875; See also:Milton, in See also:Macmillan's English Men of Letters See also:series in 1879. The 18th See also:century, alike in its literature and its See also:theology, was a favourite study, as is illustrated by his contribution (Tendencies of Religious Thought in See also:England, 1688-175o) to the once famous Essays and Reviews (186o), and by his edition of See also:Pope's See also:Essay on See also:Man (1869), &c.

Henry See also:Nettleship, were published posthumously (1889), as well as the See also:Memoirs (1885), an auto-biography deeply tinged with See also:melancholy and bitterness. His projected Life of Scaliger was never finished. Mark Pattison possessed an extraordinary distinction of mind. He was a true scholar, who lived entirely in the things of the See also:intellect. He writes of himself, excusing the See also:composition of his memoirs, that he has known little or nothing of contemporary celebrities, and that his memory is inaccurate: " All my See also:energy was directed upon one end—to improve myself, to See also:form my own mind, to See also:sound things thoroughly, to See also:free myself from the bondage of unreason. . . If there is anything of interest in my See also:story, it is as a story of See also:mental development " (Memoirs, pp. I, 2). The Memoirs is a rather morbid See also:book, and Mark Pattison is merciless to himself throughout. It is evident that he carried See also:rationalism in See also:religion to an extent that seems hardly consistent with his position as a priest of the English See also:- CHURCH

Mark Pattison's tenth and youngest See also:sister was Dorothy Wyndlow Pattison (1832-1878), better known as SISTER DORA, the name she took in 1864 on becoming a member of the See also:Anglican sisterhood of the See also:Good Samaritan at Coatham, Yorkshire. In 1865 she was sent as See also:nurse to their cottage See also:hospital in See also:Walsall, and from 1867 to 1877 she was in See also:charge of a new hospital there. She See also:left the sisterhood in 1874, and their hospital in 1877, to take charge of the municipal epidemic hospital, where the cases were largely small-pox. She had meanwhile qualified herself thoroughly as a nurse and had acquired no mean skill as a surgeon. Her efforts greatly endeared her to those among whom she worked, and after her See also:death a memorial window was erected in the See also:parish church, and a See also:marble portrait statue by F. J. See also:Williamson in the See also:principal square of Walsall.
