| 释义 |
John Stock (1764–1842) was headmaster of the Poplar House Academy, London, in the late eighteenth century and early nineteenth century. In 1786 he married Miss Parker who also worked at the school.[1] He is noted for being a progressive teacher interested in teaching science.[2] He published Syllabus of Philosophical Lectures Given During Each Half Year at Poplar House Academy in 1826.[3] One historian described him as an autodidact who nevertheless provided an exemplary education " insofar that it was energetic and practical (based on a spirit of ambitious competition amongst his pupils).[4] Stock educated Charles Pritchard (1808–1893), from 1822. Pritchard, a future astronomer, used some old instruments at the school constructed by James Ferguson. He went on to become Headmaster of Stockwell Grammar School.[2][5][6] In 1814 he had his portrait painted by Henry William Pickersgill.[7] In 1821 and 1823, he and fellow parishioner, George Green, provided two tranches of loans towards the building of All Saints, Poplar, a new church being built in the parish.. However this supplanted a year or so later by a loan on better terms from the West India Dock Company.[8] In 1833 he gave evidence to the House of Commons select committee on Public Walks raising concerns about the lack of public space for the "humbler class of Londoner"" and that this was contributing to such people frequenting public houses.[9] He was a visiting justice to the Hanwell Asylum.[10] He served as a magistrate for Middlesex and was buried in the graveyard of St Matthias Old Church, Poplar.[11] References1. ^{{cite journal|title=Marriages and Deaths of Considerable Persons|journal=Gentleman's Magazine, and Historical Chronicle|date=1786|volume=52|issue=2|page=809}} {{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Stock, John}}2. ^1 {{cite web|last=Toman|first=John|title=Francis Kilvert and Charles Pritchard Clapham Connections|url=http://www.claphamsociety.com/Articles/article8.html|publisher=Clapham Society|accessdate=16 May 2014}} 3. ^{{cite book|last1=Stock|first1=John|title=Syllabus of Philosophical Lectures Given During Each Half Year at Poplar House Academy|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=gQcQAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA1&lpg=PA1&dq=poplar+house+academy&source=bl&ots=4SnJcs40F3&sig=UHpYKTr0eOjFcmSzs5ay_ebtaDo&hl=en&sa=X&ei=-vyqU4WKJpHX7Aaj9YHwAg&ved=0CCUQ6AEwATgK#v=onepage&q=poplar%20house%20academy&f=false|accessdate=25 June 2014}} 4. ^{{cite journal|last1=Leinster‐Mackay|first1=Donald|title=Pioneers in Progressive Education: some Little‐Known Proprietary and Private School Exemplars|journal=History of Education|date=1980|volume=9|issue=3|pages=213–217|doi=10.1080/0046760800090302}} 5. ^{{cite DNB|wstitle=Pritchard, Charles|volume=46}} 6. ^{{cite ODNB|id=22819|title=|first=Anita|last=McConnell}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.racollection.org.uk/ixbin/indexplus?_IXSR_=VQpeiCZB_aR&_IXSP_=8&_MREF_=43852&_IXSS_=_IXSESSION_%3ddaeCQ0bGBSX%26%252asform%3d%252fsearch_form%252fallform%26_IXresults_%3dy%26exhibitions%3dtrue%26_IXACTION_%3dquery%26all_fields%3dJOHN%2bSTOCK%26archives%3dtrue%26_IX%252ey%3d7%26books%3dtrue%26_IX%252ex%3d10%26works%3dtrue%26_IXMAXHITS_%3d18%26_IXTRAIL_%3dSearch%2bResults&_IXACTION_=display&_IXSPFX_=templates/full/&_IXTRAIL_=Search+Results|title=Painting of John Stock|website=Royal Academy of Arts Collections|publisher=Royal Academy|accessdate=11 June 2015}} 8. ^{{cite web|title=Between Poplar High Street and East India Dock Road: All Saints' Church and Rectory|url=http://www.british-history.ac.uk/survey-london/vols43-4/pp176-180|website=British History Online|accessdate=18 February 2016}} 9. ^{{cite book|last1=Anderson|first1=Jack|title=Leading Cases in Sports Law|date=2013|page=21}} 10. ^{{cite journal|title=Fifty Ninth Report of the Visiting Justices to the County Asylum of Hanwell|journal=The Lancet|date=1841|doi=10.1016/S0140-6736(02)97129-1|volume=36|page=32}} 11. ^{{cite journal|title=Home Intelligence|journal=The Asiatic Journal|date=1842|issue=August|pages=422|url=https://play.google.com/books/reader?id=lg8oAAAAYAAJ&printsec=frontcover&output=reader&hl=en&pg=GBS.PA422}} 3 : English educational theorists|1764 births|1842 deaths |
