Author : Edwin A. Abbott

Edwin A. Abbott Abbott, a distinguished British theologian and writer, is best known for his imaginative satirical novella, *Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions* (1884). An accomplished schoolmaster, he received his education at the City of London School and St. John’s College, Cambridge, where he excelled in classics, mathematics, and theology. Ordained in 1862, Abbott took on various teaching roles before becoming headmaster of the City of London School at just 26 years old. His contributions to literature and theology are noteworthy, including *Shakespearian Grammar* (1870) and a life of Francis Bacon (1885). Abbott’s progressive theological views are reflected in his major works, such as *The Kernel and the Husk* (1886) and *The Anglican Career of Cardinal Newman* (1892). Despite some misconceptions, he was not the brother of fellow academic Evelyn Abbott. After retiring in 1889, he focused on his literary and theological endeavors, leaving a lasting impact on both fields.
