Alexander Bower (''fl''. 1804–1830) was a biographer from Scotland. Bower began as a teacher in Edinburgh, then acted as assistant-librarian in the university of Edinburgh. He died suddenly about 1830-1. He published several works between 1804 and 1830: * ''An Account of the Life of James Beattie, LL.D.'', 1804, 8vo., besides his subject, James Beattie, are occasional notes on contemporary literature and literary figures in Scotland. * ''The Life of Luther, with an account of the early progress of the Reformation,'' 1813, 8vo. * ''The History of the University of Edinburgh, chiefly compiled from original Papers and Records never before published,'' vols. i. ii., 1817, vol. iii. 1830, 8vo. noted as a biographical source for people associated with the university, but other details are lacking in value. * ''The Edinburgh Students' Guide, or an Account of the Classes of the University,'' 1822. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alexander Bower」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
