Jeremy Catto

Dr Robert Jeremy Adam Inch Catto (born 1939) was, until 2006, the Rhodes Fellow and Tutor in Modern History, Oriel College, Oxford, where he was also Senior Dean. He holds a master's degree (M.A.) and a doctorate (D.Phil.) His research interests lie in the politics and religion of later medieval England. In a piece in The Spectator to commemorate his retirement in June 2006, Alan Duncan MP described him as "the quintessential Oxford don... if one were to devour C. P. Snow, Goodbye, Mr. Chips and Porterhouse Blue, there is a smattering of Catto in each."
