Robert Howard Hodgkin

Robert Howard Hodgkin (24 April 1877 – 28 June 1951), who went by Robin, was an English historian. He taught at the Queen's College, Oxford, from 1900 to 1937 and served as its provost from 1937 until 1946. He was particularly known for his 1935 work, A History of the Anglo-Saxons, and for his 1949 book, Six Centuries of an Oxford College.

Born at the family house Benwell Dene in Newcastle upon Tyne, Hodgkin was a son of the banker and historian Thomas Hodgkin, and part of a so-called "Quaker dynasty" with many accomplished relatives.
