Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: ADA-AIZ
AINSWORTH, ROBERT (166o-1743) ,
English
  schoolmaster and author, was born at Eccles, near
Manchester
 , in September 166o. After teaching for some time at Lever's Grammar School in
Bolton
 , he removed to London, where he conducted a boarding-school, first at Bethnal Green and then at Hackney. He soon made a moderate fortune which gave him leisure to pursue his classical studies.
Ainsworth
 's name is associated with his Latin-
English
  Dictionary, begun in 1714, and published in 1736 as
Thesaurus
  linguae Latinae compendiarius. It was
long
  extensively used in schools, and often reprinted, the later editions being revised And enlarged by other hands, but it is now superseded.
Ainsworth
  was also the author of some useful works on classical antiquities, and a sensible treatise on education, en-titled The most Natural and Easy Way of Institution (1698), in which he
advocates
  the teaching of Latin by conversational methods and deprecates
punishment
  of any sort. He died in London on the 4th of
April
  1743.
