field of his activity. He devoted himself a See also:good See also:deal to classical and philosophical tuition in Oxford with success, and his publications included an edition of See also:Aristotle's See also:Ethics (in 1865). Simultaneously with these occupations he had been diligently studying See also:economics, with
the result that in 1859 he was appointed See also:professor of See also:statistics and economic See also:science at King's College, London, a See also:post which he filled till his See also:death. From 1862 to 1867 he also held the position of See also:Drummond professor of See also:political See also:economy at Oxford. During that See also:period he published (in 1866) the first two

dealing with the period 1259–1400, a See also:minute and masterly See also:record of the subject, and the See also:work upon which his reputation mainly rests. Two more volumes (1401–1582) were published in 1882, a fifth and See also:sixth (1583–1702) in 1887, and he See also:left behind him at his death copious materials for a seventh and eighth.

Smith's See also:Wealth of Nations. In 1875 he collected and edited the Protests of the Lords. An intimate acquaintance with See also:Cobden and See also:John See also:Bright led Rogers to take an active See also:part in politics: he represented See also:Southwark in See also:parliament from 188o to 1885, and See also:Bermondsey from 1885–86, as an advanced Liberal. In 1888, on the death of Professor Bonamy See also:Price, who had succeeded him at Oxford as professor of political economy, he was re-elected to the post, and held it till his death. Previously (in 1883) he had been appointed lecturer in political economy at See also:Worcester College, Oxford. His latter years were mainly spent at Oxford, where he died on the 12th of See also:October 189o. He was celebrated as a See also:caustic wit and humorist. Of his See also:miscellaneous economic and See also:historical writings, which were numerous, the most See also:note-worthy is his Six Centuries of Work and See also:Wages, published in 1884. As an economist, Thorold Rogers did much to promote the historical study of his subject. He was, however, See also:apt to be guided too frequently by political See also:prejudice, and the value of his work suffered from his aggressively contentious spirit.
