Cardinal, Archbishop of Canterbury, died Sussex, England, 1228. Combining scholarship and statesmanship, he is noted for his division of the Bible into chapters, and as leader of the barons in their struggle against King John for constitutional liberty, Langton wrote the Magna Carta, and with the barons, forced John to sign it (1265). He drew up an important code of canons for the See of Canterbury.
