Charles Hodge (1797-1878), Presbyterian theologian and longtime professor at Princeton Theological Seminary. Hodge is perhaps best known for his massive "Systematic Theology," which defined Calvinism for generations of American seminary students and continues in print to this day. Another noteworthy achievement was his editorship of the Seminary's theological journal, The Biblical Repertory and Princeton Review that he edited beginning in 1828. Charles Hodge graduated from the College of New Jersey (much later renamed Princeton University) in 1815 and continued with Seminary studies graduating in 1819. He was immediately appointed as Assistant Teacher of the Original Languages of Scripture. By 1922, he was Professor of Oriental and Biblical Literature and then chair of Didactic Theology from 1840 until his death June 19, 1878.
