George Holland Sabine

Résumé
George Holland Sabine (9 December 1880 – 18 January 1961), popularly known as Sabine, was a professor of philosophy, dean of the graduate school and vice president of Cornell University. He is best known for his authoritative work A History of Political Theory, which traces the growth of political thought from the times of Plato to modern fascism and nazism. George Sabine was also a carpenter, a blacksmith, a cook, and a gardener. He also collected lithographs and etchings. In his review of A History of Political Theory, Leland Jenks noted, "Sabine is the only textbook writer who is abreast of recent Rousseau scholarship, as represented by Hoffding, Lanson, Cassirer, and Hendel." He was born in Dayton, Ohio to Lorenzo D. Sabine and Eva Josephine Tucker. Sabine entered Cornell University in 1899, received his A.B. in 1903 and Ph.D. in 1906. He taught at Stanford University from 1907 to 1914. That year, he was appointed professor of philosophy at University of Missouri. He continued teaching there until 1923 when he began at Ohio State University. In 1931, he returned to Cornell, where Henry W. Sage had endowed the Susan Linn Sage professorship. Beyond the classroom, Sabine served as Dean of Graduate School from 1940 to 1944, and as Vice President of Cornell from 1943 to 1946. He was affiliated with the Cornell Branch of the Telluride Association, where he resided in his final years. He died in Washington, D.C.
