Joseph Hamburger (1922 – August 21, 1997) was an American historian.[1][2]
His academic career at Yale University spanned 35 years, from 1957 to 1992. In 1990 he was appointed the Pelatiah Perit Professor of Political and Social Science.[1][3] His work focused on nineteenth century Britain, with studies on James Mill, John Stuart Mill and Thomas Macaulay.[1] His obituarists claimed that he made an immense contribution to historical knowledge through his work on nineteenth century intellectual history and called him a sturdy advocate of "the fundamental principles of individual liberty and representative democracy".[1]
