Sterling, John

Sterling, John (1806–44), a leading member of the Apostles and disciple of Coleridge. With Maurice he was briefly proprietor of the Athenaeum (1828). He was offered in 1834 the curacy of Herstmonceux by his old tutor Hare, who was vicar, but he resigned the following year. Sterling owes his fame to his close friendship with Carlyle whose vivid Life of Sterling (1851) reveals the tragic history of Sterling's short life, interrupted by persistent ill health. His monthly meetings of literary friends, from 1838, became known as the Sterling Club; among its members were Carlyle, Hare, J. S. Mill, and Tennyson. Among his few published works were a novel, Arthur Coningsby (1833), Poems (1839), and Essays and Tales (1848).
