Anthony Wood [1632-1695] English antiquary educated at Merton College. He obtained permission to use the Bodleian and then began systematically to copy monumental inscriptions and for antiquities in the city and neighbourhood. The keeper, Dr. John Wallis allowed him access to the University registers in 1660 and this work became the foundation for his later History and Antiquities of Oxford. In 1678 the registers that had been in his for eighteen years were removed, s it was feared that he would be implicated in the Popish plot. During this time he worked on his great work, the above title, published in 1691-92. "Wood's Athenae is an invaluable work, both as respects biography and bibliography...." (Lowndes).
