Hare

Hare, Julius Charles (1795-1855), an early leader of the Broad Church party, was educated at the Charterhouse and Trinity College, Cambridge, of which he became a fellow, in 1818. His first literary effort was a translation of F'ouque's Sintram (1820). In 1826 he was ordained. Guesses at Truth (1827), the joint, work of Julius and his brother Augustus William (1792-1834), showed the influence of recent German thought on the teaching of Coleridge. He subsequently translated Niebuhr's History of Rome in conjunction with Thirlwall. He was appointed to the living of Hurstmonceux in 1832, and in 1840 became Archdeacon of Lewes. His edition of the Essays and Tales of John Sterling (1848), who had been his curate at Hurstmonceux, was accompanied by a life of the author, written from the point of view of an Anglican churchman. This work is now memorable only as having incited Carlyle, who had far more sympathy with Sterling's genius, to write his own graphic biography.
