KNOLLES, RICHARD (c. 1545-1610)

This article appears in Volume V15, Page 869 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: KHA-KRI
KNOLLES, RICHARD (c. 1545-1610) , English historian, was a native of
Northamptonshire
 , and was educated at Lincoln College, Oxford. He became a fellow of his college, and at some date subsequent to 1571 left Oxford to become master of a school at Sandwich, Kent, where he died in 161o. In 1603 Knolles published his Generall Historie of the Turkes, of which several editions subsequently appeared, among them a good one edited by Sir Paul Rycaut (1700), who brought the history down to 1699. It was dedicated to King James I., and Knolles availed himself largely of Jean Jacques Boissard's Vitae et hones Sultanorum Turcicorum (Frankfort, 1596). Although now entirely superseded, it has considerable merits as regards style and arrangement. Knolles published a translation of J. Bodin's De Republica in 1606, but the Grammatica
Latina
 , Graeca et Hebraica, attributed to him by Anthony
Wood
  and others, is the
work
  of the Rev. Hanserd Knollys (c. 1599-1691), a Baptist minister.
See the
Athenaeum
 , August 6, 1881.
