Historique
Thomas Hay Sweet Escott was born in Taunton, Somerset in 1844. He was educated at Somerset College, Bath, and Queen's College, Oxford. Between 1866 and 1873 he lectured in logic and classics at King's College, London, alongside a second job as a leader writer on the Standard; he subsequently abandoned academia to concentrate on developing a career in journalism. Between 1882 and 1886 he edited the Fortnightly Review. A man of broadly conservative opinions, Escott continued to write widely on political, historical and literary topics throughout his life.
