William Pemble (1591/2–1623) was an English scholar and theologian notable for his contributions to the educational literature of his time. Pemble crafted works integrating theology, philosophy, and human learning, reflecting the intellectual milieu of early 17th-century England. His “A Briefe Introduction to Geography” reflects his interdisciplinary approach, grounding geographical insights within a wider scholarly context. Pemble studied at Magdalen Hall, Oxford, where he later became a catechetical lecturer. His literary style is characterized by thoroughness and clarity, aiming to make complex subjects accessible to students. Despite the brevity of his life, Pemble authored several works, often focusing on religious and moral subjects. His scholarly endeavors earned him posthumous recognition through the republication of his collected works in the mid-17th century. While “A Briefe Introduction to Geography” remains his most direct foray into the subject of geography, his other writings often demonstrate consideration for the interplay between place, human activity, and divine providence.
