⏹ Stanhope, Charles I (Sheriff) III Charles 3rd Earl Stanhope,

English inventor, scientist and politician (1753-1816)
. Stanhope was educated at the famous Eton School and then studied mathematics in Geneva. And he obtained membership in the National Assembly, and it seems that he was affected by the events of the French Revolution, so the British considered him an extremist. And they claimed that he transferred “his deviation even to his home, so he neglected his children and his wife for the sake of the interest in science, invention and music.” He invented the biconvex cylindrical lens used in astigmatism correction. Stanhope also invented the manual printing press and others. It is noteworthy that Stanhope's great-grandmother, known as Lady Stanhope, traveled to the Arab East and settled in Lebanon among the Druze tribes. Her culture, charm, and various contacts were able to gain a very high status, bringing her close to the status of "brown" among the general public.
