Rev. Walter William Skeat (FBA 1835–1912) “whose formidable achievement in English medieval studies and philology marks him out as one of the great 19th-century pioneer scholars... his work formed a solid basis for much of the academic development of these areas in the following century”. (OED Who’s Who 2019).
