A Profile of Owen Chadwick

by David Warren

Yet I’ve been sometimes repelled by a writer who seemed himself to believe a little in progress. He was no reactionary, and he played a direct part in the evolution of, for instance, Selwyn College, which under his watch admitted men, and then women, too, of other faiths or of no faith at all. What a bounder.

That's still rather progressive. Too much of a scholar, not enough of an educator and observer of human nature?
