John Harmar (ca. 1555–1613) was an English classical scholar and headmaster of Winchester College. ==Life== Harmar was educated at Winchester College and New College, Oxford, (BA 1577, MA 1582) under the patronage of Robert Dudley, 1st Earl of Leicester. He travelled to Geneva, where he heard the lectures and sermons of Theodore Beza and "found him no lesse than a father unto me in curtesie & good will." From 1585 until 1590, he was the Regius Professor of Greek (Oxford) (a chair later held by his nephew, also named John Harmar), and his 1586 edition of six of John Chrysostom's sermons was the first Greek text printed at Oxford. Harmar was Winchester's Headmaster from 1588 to 1595 and Warden from 1596 until his death. In 1605, he received the degrees of BD and DD, in recognition of his role as one of the translators of the 1611 Authorized Version of the Bible. He was part of the Second Oxford Company, assigned to work on the Gospels, the Acts of the Apostles, and the Book of Revelation. He died on 11 October 1613, and was buried in the chapel of New College, Oxford. 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「John Harmar」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
