  Richard Chenevix Trench - LoveToKnow 1911
RICHARD CHENEVIX TRENCH (1807-1886), Anglican archbishop and poet, was born at Dublin on the 9th of September 1807.
Trench could do nothing to prevent the disestablishment of the Irish Church, though he resisted with dignity.
But, when the disestablished communion had to be reconstituted under the greatest difficulties, it was found of the highest importance that the occupant of his position should be a man of a liberal and genial spirit.

Pre-eminently, Church was a man of letters; and this was as obviously true of Richard Chenevix Trench.
Just as Church owed inspiration to Greece, modern as well as ancient, and its struggle for liberty, so Trench had nourished himself on the great literature of Spain and was in harmony with the aspirations of her liberal revival.
He passed, in 1863, from the deanery of Westminster to the archbishopric of Dublin, where he was primate at the disestablishment and fought hard for the ancient symbols of the Irish church under its new constitution.

 Oxford English Dictionary
The dictionary had no university connection originally; it was conceived in London as a project of the Philological Society, when Richard Chenevix Trench, Herbert Coleridge, and Frederick Furnivall had become dissatisfied with the available dictionaries of English.
Trench suggested that nothing short of a new and truly comprehensive dictionary would do: one that would be based on contributions from a large number of volunteer readers, who would read books, copy out passages illustrating various actual uses of words onto quotation slips, and mail them to the editor.
Trench played a key role in the first months of the project, but his ecclesiastical career meant that he could not give the dictionary the continued attention that it needed over a period that, it was realized, might easily be as long as ten years.

 World Wide Words: Preposterous
In the middle of the nineteenth century it attracted the ire of the philologist Richard Chenevix Trench, who was at various times Dean of Westminster and Archbishop of Dublin, but is much better known to dictionary makers as the man who put forward the original idea for the Oxford English Dictionary.
He lamented that the word had been debased by sloppy writers to the point at which “It is now no longer of any practical service at all in the language, being merely an ungraceful and slipshod synonym for absurd”.
Dean Chenevix Trench may have been one of the founders of modern linguistics, but here he makes the same mistake as earlier writers on language who felt that words ought always to mean what their Latin originals meant and that change always implies decay.
