	Charles Kingsley - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Charles Kingsley (July 12, 1819 – January 23, 1875) was an English novelist, particularly associated with the West Country.
		Charles spent his childhood in Clovelly, Devon and was educated at Magdalene College, Cambridge, before himself going in for the church.
		Kingsley's humour has escaped many; perhaps it can be found in another of his historical romances, named after its heroine, Hypatia, in which the arch neo-Platonist of end-of-empire Alexandria converts to Christianity at the moment of her obscene murder.

		Like many Victorians, Kingsley idealizes the selflessness and gentleness that supposedly comes naturally to women, especially in their maternal role.
		At the same time, he wishes to uphold an ideal of manliness that requires males to be combative, aggressive, even violent--yet good, moral Christians nonetheless.
