EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Josiah Pullen: The Oxford Don with Unconventional Passions" Josiah Pullen (1631-1714), an enigmatic figure of the 17th century, is captured in this portrait. Born in Oxford, Pullen rose to prominence as a scholar and don, but his eccentricities set him apart from his peers. The image reveals a man of advanced age, with a thoughtful expression and a furrowed brow. He is dressed in the robes of an Oxford don, signifying his academic achievements. However, it is the unusual accessory hanging from his waist that piques our interest. A pair of long, wooden crutches can be seen, hinting at his deep-rooted love for walking. Pullen's fascination with long walks was not just a pastime; it was an essential part of his daily routine. He would often be seen strolling through the picturesque landscapes of Oxford and the surrounding countryside, absorbing the beauty of nature and pondering the complexities of theology and philosophy. Despite his scholarly success, Pullen's restless spirit yearned for a simpler life. He eventually left his esteemed position at Oxford and became a country parson, trading the halls of academia for the quiet charm of rural living. His eccentricities, which once set him apart, became endearing qualities in his new role as a shepherd of souls. This photograph, a window into the past, offers a glimpse into the life of a man who defied convention and followed his heart. Josiah Pullen, the Oxford don with unconventional passions, remains a fascinating character in the annals of history.
