A later, and, to some moderns, less attractive, phase of the renascence movement was brought nearer to English readers by the one larger work published, amidst a number of smaller contributions to the literature of scholarship and adjoining fields of research, by Mark Pattison, the renowned rector of Lincoln College, Oxford.
Although much of what Pattison wrote besides Isaac Casaubon (including the collected Essays and a characteristic life of Milton in the “English Men of Letters” series) is worthy of preservation, it was in his own posthumously published Memoirs (reaching to 1860) that he made an addition of surpassing interest to biographical literature.
Luckily, “the vulgar feeling that a literary life means one devoted to the making of books” so far prevailed with Pattison that his pen was rarely idle, and that he made himself memorable, not only in the educational history of his university, but, also, in the history of learning and letters.

The second is Isaac Casaubon, by Mark Pattison, published in 1875, a few years after Middlemarch; whether or not Eliot's Edward Casaubon was modeled on Mark Pattison has been a controversy ever since the novel appeared.
Pattison himself, in an early flirtation with the Tractarian movement, translated Aquinas for John Henry Newman.
From this point on, Pattison receded from the world of work, gradually coming to believe that it was better to think than to write.

Scholarship is sometimes identified with classical learning or erudition; it is more often contrasted with it.
The contrast is thus drawn by Donaldson in his Classical Scholarship and Classical Learning (1856), and by Mark Pattison, in his Essay on Oxford Studies (1855).
"It is not a knowledge," writes Mark Pattison, "but a discipline, that is required; not science, but the scientific habit; not erudition, but scholarship" (Essays, i.

The most remarkable part of the book is the introductory essay, which contains as happy a critique on one of the first of English classics as any piece of criticism in the language.
Pattison accounts for the defects in Pope's satire.

 §39. Universities and research. XIV. Education. Vol. 14. The Victorian Age, Part Two. The Cambridge History of ...
Newman believed that a university could not at the same time be a place of education and a home of research and learning; Mark Pattison, on the contrary, boldly asserted that, unless teachers were actively engaged in advancing knowledge, their teaching would be inadequate and barren.
All attempts to stimulate the teaching activity of [Oxford] without adding to its solid possession of the field of science will only feed the unwholesome system of examinations which is now undermining the educational value of the work we actually do.
It was Pattison’s hope that such a readjustment of finances would ensure a numerous body of fairly paid teachers, who would have time and opportunity to continue their own studies, to the advantage of the world beyond their own lecture rooms.

The letters that passed between Mark Pattison--revered scholar and renowned educational reformer--and Meta Bradley--Pattison's cherished friend and confidante--are among the most remarkable and intimate records of middle-class life in Victorian England.
Often moving, sometimes sad, they tell the story of an extraordinary friendship between the Rector of an Oxford college, a married man in his seventies, and a woman some forty years his junior.
In character Pattison was an original, the possible prototype for George Eliot's Dr. Casaubon in Middlemarch.
