    John Donne: A Man of Letters and Faith

    Early Years and Education

    John Donne was born in London between January 23 and June 19, His father, a prosperous merchant, passed away when John was a mere child.

    His mother, the daughter of poet and playwright John Heywood, descended from Sir Thomas More.

    At the tender age of twelve, Donne enrolled at Hart Hall, Oxford University. After three years, he transferred to Cambridge University, but did not complete a degree at either institution.

    His early entry and subsequent refusal to formally graduate stem from his Catholic faith, as he was unwilling to take the Oath of Supremacy required for a degree.
