John Jortin (23 October 1698 – 5 September 1770) was an English church historian .
Jortin was the son of Renatus Jordain , a Breton Huguenot refugee[1] and government official, and Martha Rogers, daughter of Daniel Rogers .[2] [3] He was educated at Charterhouse School , and in 1715 became a pensioner of Jesus College, Cambridge ,[1] where he became a Fellow in 1721. He was Rede lecturer at Cambridge in 1724,[4] and Boyle lecturer in 1749.[5] A churchman, he held various benefices, becoming in 1764 Archdeacon of London .[5]
Jortin briefly (1731–2) established a magazine, Miscellaneous Observations upon Authors, Ancient and Modern , in which he wrote on Spenser and Milton .[2] In 1722 he published a small volume of Latin verse entitled Lusus poetici .[1] Discourses Concerning the Truth of the Christian Religion (1746) was a work of Christian apologetics. His Remarks on Ecclesiastical History (5 vols, 1751‑73), has been labelled "the most significant Anglican ecclesiastical history of the eighteenth century"; written "from a markedly latitudinarian perspective", it was respected by Gibbon .[2]
Jortin mostly avoided controversy, though a dissertation on Virgil 's treatment of the dead, by conflicting with Warburton 's treatment, drew attack from Warburton's disciple Richard Hurd .[2] A two-volume Life of Erasmus (1758, 1760) drew upon Jean Le Clerc : "Jortin was in many ways a late representative of Christian humanism , as well as an active citizen in the protestant republic of letters ".[2] Jortin published other miscellaneous pamphlets and tracts, and seven volumes of sermons appeared after his death. All his works showed learning, and were written in a lively style.
A collection of three volumes of his works was printed in 1805 and can be found at Internet Archive :
