| 520 | _a"The Life and Times of John Wilkins" by P. A. Wright Henderson is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work presents an examination of John Wilkins, a notable figure in 17th-century England who served as Warden of Wadham College, Oxford, and as a Bishop, delving into his contributions to academia and society during a transformative era in British history. The narrative showcases not only Wilkins’ life but also the founding and evolution of Wadham College amidst the political and religious upheaval of the English Civil War. The opening of the account outlines the foundation of Wadham College and sets the historical context for Wilkins’ life, highlighting the role of Nicholas and Dorothy Wadham as founders. It describes the college's establishment in the early 17th century, emphasizing the atmosphere of learning and the burgeoning intellectual community it fostered. As the narrative progresses, it introduces John Wilkins, detailing his education and early career, and hints at his later prominence within the university and contributions to the early scientific community, particularly through his association with the Royal Society. The text invites readers to explore the rich tapestry of academic life and the challenges Wilkins faced during a period marked by significant social and political strife.
