John Marshall FRS FCRS (11 September 1818 – 1 January 1891) was an English surgeon and teacher of anatomy.
Early life and education
[edit]John Marshall was born in Ely, Cambridgeshire. He was the second son and third child of the solicitor William Marshall (1776–1842) and Ann Cropley (c.1793–1861), his second wife.
Career
[edit]Regarding Marshall's skills as a teacher and lecturer, the opinions of his former students appear to have diverged. One of them, Sir Edward Albert Sharpey-Schafer, described him as "a good surgeon of the old school"[1] and as "a good friend" for whom he had "great respect and liking" but also as an "uninspiring teacher" whose lectures where "desperately dull".[2] However, another former student, Sir John Tweedy, strongly disagreed with Schafer and described Marshall's lectures as "informative and thought-awakening" and Marshall himself as "a cultured, critical and scientific surgeon, ever ready to try new paths and explore avenues of fresh knowledge".[3]
