Some Famous People called Thomas Browne

Thomas Browne

Sir Thomas Browne ( 19 October 1605 – 19 October 1682) was an English polymath and author of varied works which reveal his wide learning in diverse fields including science and medicine, religion and the esoteric. His writings display a deep curiosity towards the natural world, influenced by the scientific revolution of Baconian enquiry and are permeated by references to Classical and Biblical sources as well as the idiosyncrasies of his own personality. Although often described as suffused with melancholia, Browne's writings are also characterised by wit and subtle humour, while his literary style is varied, according to genre, resulting in a rich, unique prose which ranges from rough notebook observations to polished Baroque eloquence.

Thomas Browne (Australian politician)

Thomas Frederic De Courcy Browne (1838 – 9 October 1899) was an Irish-born Australian politician.

He was born in Dublin to John Browne and Mary O'Neill. His early life is unclear; some sources state that he was educated at the University of Dublin, while others indicate he went to the Victorian goldmines as an adolescent. He moved to New South Wales in 1862 and mined at Burrangong Creek, where he became a local journalist and chairman of the mining court. In 1868 he followed the gold rush to Gympie, where he edited the Gympie Times. He went to north Queensland to mine the Gilbert River before returning to New South Wales in 1870, living at Gulgong. In 1881 he was appointed local gold commissioner, and also edited the Home Rule Pilot. In 1885 he was elected to the New South Wales Legislative Assembly as the member for Mudgee. He was defeated in 1887, but returned in a by-election for Wentworth later that year. He was defeated for good in 1889, and moved to Broken Hill and then to Western Australia. Browne died in Sydney in 1899.
