نُفذت وصيته الأولى بعد 60 عاماً من كتابتها، والثانية بعد موته بيومين!.. قصة الجثة التي تحضر الاجتماعات منذ 180 عاماً

"Auto-Icon" of The philosopher and jurist Jeremy Bentham (1748-1832). He is often credited with being one of the founders of the University of London, the forerunner of today's University College London. This is not, in fact, true. Bentham was eighty years of age when the new University opened its doors in 1828, and took no part in the campaign to bring it into being. Yet although Bentham played no direct part in the establishment of UCL, he still deserves to be considered as its spiritual father. Many of the founders, particularly James Mill (1773-1836) and Henry Brougham (1778-1868), held him in high esteem, and their project embodied many of his ideas on education and society.
