CARDWELL, EDWARD (1787-1861) , English theologian, was born at Blackburn in Lancashire in 1787. He was educated at Brasenose College, Oxford (B.A. 1809; M.A. 1812; B.D. 1819; D.D. 1831), and after being for several years tutor and lecturer, was appointed, in 1814, one of the examiners to the university. In 1825 he was chosen Camden professor of ancient history; and during his five years' professorship he published an edition of the Ethics of Aristotle, and a course of his lectures on The Coinage of the Greeks and Romans. In 1831 he succeeded Archbishop Whately as principal of St Alban's
Hall
 . He published in 1837 a student's edition of the Greek Testament, and an edition of the Greek and Latin texts of the History of the Jewish War, by Josephus, with illustrative notes. But his most important labours were in the field of English church history. He projected an extensive
work
 , which was to embrace the entire synodical history of the church in England, and was to befounded on
David
  Wilkins's Concilia Magnae Britanniae et Hiberniae. Of this
work
  he executed some portions only. The first published was Documentary Annals of the Reformed Church of England from 1546 to 1716, which appeared in 1839. It was followed by a History of Conferences, &c., connected with the Revision of the Book of Common Prayer (1840). On 1842 appeared Synodalia, a Collection of Articles of Religion, Canons, and Proceedings of Convocation from 1547 to 1717, completing the
series
  for that period. Closely connected with these works is the Reformatio Legum Ecdesiast?carum (1850), which treats of the efforts for reform during the reigns of
Henry
  VIII., Edward VI., and Elizabeth.
Cardwell
  also published in 1854 a new edition of Bishop Gibson's Synodus Anglicana. He was one of the best men of business in the university, and held various important posts, among which were those of delegate of the press, curator of the university galleries, manager of the Bible department of the press, and private secretary to successive chancellors of the university- He established the Wolvercot
paper
  mill. He died at Oxford on the 23rd of May 1861.
