Oliver Chase Quick

Oliver Chase Quick (21 June 1885, Sedberg, now Cumbria – 21 January 1944, Longborough, Gloucester) was an English theologian and Anglican priest.

Oliver Quick was the son of Robert Hebert Quick and Bertha Parr. He was educated at Harrow and Corpus Christi College, Oxford, and ordained priest in 1912. He was Canon successively of Newcastle (1920–23), Carlisle (1923–30), St Paul's (1930–34), Durham (1934-39), and Christ Church, 1939-44. He was Chaplain to the Archbishop of Canterbury, and from 1939 to 1944 Regius Professor of Divinity at the University of Oxford. In his works advocated the doctrines of soul sleep and conditional immortality.(Doctrines of The Creed, 1st Edition, James Nisbet & Co, Welwyn, 1938, Reprinted March 1960, pp. 260–261) He was one of the leading exponents of orthodox Anglicanism and upheld a position similar to that of the authors of Essays Catholic and Critical (1926). He followed systematic and synthetic rather than historical methods and expressed his thought in a modern way.

Quick married Frances Winifred Pearson, a niece of Karl Pearson.
