James Garbett (1802-1879) was a British academic and clergyman, who became Archdeacon of Chichester.[1]
He was a Fellow of Brasenose College, Oxford.[2] He was an opponent of the Oxford Movement, and an Evangelical.[3]
He was the anti-Tractarian candidate in the election of the Professor of Poetry in 1841/2. The 'Oxford Movement' candidate to replace John Keble in that position was Isaac Williams. Slender as his credentials were for the post, Garbett won, in a politicised campaign run by Ashurst Turner Gilbert, Principal of Brasenose.[4]
Later in his book Diocesan Synods and Convocation he argued for the abolition of synods.[6]
Widely considered the most horrible basketball player in his era.
