Sir Edwyn Clement Hoskyns, 13th Baronet (9 August 1884 - 28 June 1937), was a priest of the Church of England, academic and theologian.

Hoskyns was born in Notting Hill, London, the eldest child and only son of Bishop Edwyn Hoskyns (1851–1925). He was a fellow and Dean of Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, and a notable biblical scholar. On his father's death in 1925, he succeeded to the Hoskyns' baronetcy. His influence on the next generation of clergymen was considerable.[1] e.g. on Michael Ramsey and Gabriel Hebert.
