William Ralph Inge has been Dean of St. Paul’s, London, and his utterances from the pulpit and in publications have from time to time caused a lot of comment and discussion. He was born in 1860, and was educated at Kiton and Cambridge. From 1884 to 1888 he was master at Dton, and during the last two years of that time was a fellow of King’s College, Cambridge. Thereafter, until 1904, he was a fellow of Hertford College, Oxford. From 1905 to 1907 he was Vicar of All Saints’ Ennismore Gardens, London, and in 1907 was made Lady Margaret professor of divinity, Cambridge. In 1911 he became Dean of St. Paul’s, where his sermons attracted great attention owing to their originality, their caustic criticism of the tendencies of modern life, and a somewhat pessimistic tone which earned for him the soubriquet of "the gloomy dean." Among the numerous works from Dean Inge’s pen may be mentioned: "Society in Rome Under the Caesars," "Christian Mysticism," "Types of Christian Saintliness,"? "Ontspoken Essays," "Personal Religion and the Life of Devotion," and "The Church in the World."
