17,000 Articles from the Encyclopædia Britannica, 11th & 12th eds. John Cowell (1554–1611) English jurist, born at Ernsborough, Devonshire. He was educated at Eton, and King’s College, Cambridge, ultimately becoming professor of civil law in that university, and master of Trinity Hall. In 1607 he compiled a law dictionary, The Interpreter, in which he exalted the king’s prerogative so much that he was prosecuted before the House of Commons by Sir Edward Coke, and saved from imprisonment only by the interposition of James I. His book was burnt by order of the House of Commons. Dr. Cowell also wrote a work entitled Institutiones Juris Anglicani. He died at Oxford on the 11th of October 1611. © 2022 WEHD.com
