A Dictionary of Christian Antiquities

Lexicographer, classical and biblical scholar, Sir William Smith (1813-93) wrote, edited and contributed to many works of reference, including the three great classical dictionaries (re-issued by I.B.Tauris) which made his name a household word. Forever associated with the re-birth of classics in Britain, from 1853 to 1869 he was classical examiner to the University of London, where he became a member of the Senate, and he was for twenty-five years editor of the prestigious Quarterly Review. A member of the Royal Commission on Copyright, he was knighted in 1892. Samuel Cheetham (1827-1908) was an Anglican priest and author. Michael Ledger-Lomas is Lecturer in the History of Christianity in Britain, King's College London, UK.
