Bradley, A. C.: - Andrew Cecil Bradley was an English literary scholar, most renowned for his significant contributions to Shakespearean criticism. Born in 1851 at Park Hill, Clapham, he was the youngest son of Charles Bradley, a notable Anglican preacher, and Emma Linton. His early life was shaped by a family deeply rooted in intellectual and religious pursuits. Bradley attended Balliol College, Oxford, where he was awarded a fellowship in 1874 and later lectured on English and philosophy. In 1889, he moved to Glasgow as Regius Professor and eventually returned to Oxford in 1901 as the Oxford Professor of Poetry. Bradley s scholarly work, especially Shakespearean Tragedy (1904), transformed the study of Shakespeare, offering fresh insights into the structure and emotional depth of the playwright's tragedies. His lectures were the basis of all his major works. He was later awarded honorary doctorates from various universities, including Liverpool, Glasgow, Edinburgh, and Durham. Bradley never married, spending his final years in London with his sister before passing away in 1935. His will established a research fellowship for emerging scholars of English Letters. His influence on Shakespearean studies remains profound.
