Tobias Matthew (also Tobie and Toby; 13 June 1546 – 29 March 1628), was an English nobleman and bishop who was President of St John's College, Oxford from 1572 to 1576, before being appointed Vice-Chancellor of Oxford University from 1579 to 1583, and Matthew would then become Dean of Durham from 1583 to 1595. All three positions, plus others, were appointed to Matthew by Elizabeth I. Eventually, he was appointed Archbishop of York in 1606 by Elizabeth's successor, James I.

Early life

He was the son of Sir John Matthew of Ross in Herefordshire, England, and of his wife Eleanor Crofton of Ludlow.[1] Tobias was born at Bristol on 13 June 1546.

Matthew was educated at Wells, Somerset, and then in succession at University College and Christ Church, Oxford.[2] He proceeded BA in 1564, and MA in 1566.[1]

Ties to Elizabeth I

He attracted the favourable notice of Elizabeth I, and his rise was steady though not quite rapid. He was first appointed a public orator in Oxford in 1569, and then President of St John's in 1572,[3] Dean of Christ Church in 1576, Vice-Chancellor of Oxford University in 1579,[4][5] Dean of Durham in 1583, Bishop of Durham in 1595, and Archbishop of York in 1606.[1]

Years as Archbishop

In 1581, Matthew had a controversy with the Jesuit Edmund Campion, and published at Oxford his arguments in 1638 under the title, Piissimi et eminentissimi viri Tobiae Matthew, archiepiscopi olim Eboracencis concio apologetica adversus Campianam. While in the north he was active in forcing the recusants to conform to the Church of England, preaching hundreds of sermons and carrying out thorough visitations.[1]

In 1617, he delegated his trusted lieutenant Phineas Hodson to advise Roger Brearley, who had founded the Grindletonian nonconformist sect and been accused of heresy as a result, on how he might reconcile with the Church of England.[6]

Final years and death

During his later years he was to some extent in opposition to the administration of King James I. He was exempted from attendance in the parliament of 1625 on the ground of age and infirmities. His wife, Frances, was the daughter of William Barlow, Bishop of Chichester.[1] His son, Tobie Matthew was an MP and later a convert to Roman Catholicism. He died at Cawood on 20 March 1628 at 81 years old; he was buried in the Lady Chapel of York Minster.

gollark: My laptop is a powerful nonthin laptop (it weighs 2.5kg plus a 1kg charger brick rated for 230W, and the back extends slightly past the screen so they can shove more IO on it) which I got cheaply via methods.

gollark: But yes, something something tradeoffs. You can get powerful thin laptops too, but they cost more than a bad thin laptop or powerful nonthin laptop.

gollark: A desktop is portable, just glue a car battery and 23" monitor to the side.

gollark: Unfortunately, they cost a lot (the M1 is very much not optimized for cost, and Apple like charging lots), run MacOS, and cannot be repaired.

gollark: As well as good power efficiency they also have possibly the best single-threaded performance of any mobile thing.
