Jowett, Benjamin, Master of Balliol College, Oxford, born at Camberwell; was a fellow and tutor of his college till his election to the mastership in 1870; his name will always be associated with Balliol College, where his influence was felt, and made the deepest impression; he wrote an article “On the Interpretation of Scripture” in the “Essays and Reviews,” and a commentary on certain epistles of St. Paul, but he achieved his greatest literary successes by his translations of Plato's “Dialogues,” the “History” of Thucydides, and the “Politics” of Aristotle (1817‒1893).
