Henry George Liddell

Henry George Liddell (1811-1898) was a British lexicographer, graduated at Oxford in 1833. He was tutor of Christ Church, and in 1845 appointed professor of Moral Philosophy. He was successively Head-master of Winchester, Dean of Christ Church, and Vice-Chancellor of Oxford from 1870 to 1874. His great work is a Greek lexicon (first edition 1843, last 1883), of which he was joint-author with Dr Robert Scott, and which is the standard work of its kind in English.
