Nationality English Occupation(s ) philosopher, literary critic
Thomas Spencer Baynes (24 March 1823 – 31 May 1887) was an English philosopher .
Life
[ edit ]
Baynes was born in Wellington, Somerset to a Baptist minister.[1] He intended to study for Baptist ministry, and was at a theological seminary at Bath with that view but, being strongly attracted to philosophical studies, left it and went to Edinburgh , where he became the favourite pupil of Sir William Hamilton , of whose philosophical system he continued an adherent.
After working as editor of a newspaper in Edinburgh, and after an interval of rest rendered necessary by a breakdown in health, Baynes resumed journalistic work in 1858 as assistant editor of the Daily News . In 1864 he was appointed Professor of Logic and English Literature at St Andrews University , in which capacity his mind was drawn to the study of Shakespeare , and he contributed to the Edinburgh Review and Fraser's Magazine valuable papers (chiefly relating to his vocabulary and the extent of his learning) afterwards collected as Shakespeare Studies .
In 1873, he was appointed to superintend the ninth edition of the Encyclopædia Britannica , a task with which, after 1880, he was assisted by William Robertson Smith . Baynes was the first English-born editor of the Britannica ; all earlier editors were Scottish.
