John Richard Green (1837–1883) was a renowned English historian, best known for his innovative approach to history writing which made the subject accessible to a wider audience. His seminal work, 'History of the English People' (1874-1880), earned him acclaim for its vivid and engaging narrative style, departing from the dry, factual accounts prevalent in his time. Born in Oxford, Green's early education took place at Magdalen College School, and he later attended Jesus College, Oxford, from which he graduated in 1860. Initially pursuing a career in the church, Green later focused on history, driven by his passion for English culture and heritage. Green's 'History of the English People' is characterized by a focus on the social and cultural aspects of history, rather than solely politics and warfare. It covers the expanse of English history from the Roman era through the end of the Reformation period, offering insights into the development of English society and institutions. His lively delineation and astute analysis of historical figures and events have rendered his work a classic, still read by those interested in English and historical studies. Tragically, his career was cut short by poor health, but Green's legacy as a historian remains influential, and his approach to storytelling in history continues to be appreciated for its contribution to making history more relatable and human.
