John Mark David Hughes (13 December 1978 – 29 June 2014) was a British Anglican theologian and Dean of Chapel and Chaplain at Jesus College, Cambridge.[1][2] He is known for his works on philosophy of religion,[3][4] such as The End of Work: Theological Critiques of Capitalism.[5][6][7] Hughes was born in Exeter, England.[8][9] He was ordained as a deacon of the Church of England in 2005 and as a priest in 2006.[1] He was the doctoral mentor of Elizabeth Bruenig. His school of tradition was Anglo-Catholicism,[10] as well as Christian socialism.[10][11]

Hughes was killed in a car crash in Cambridgeshire in 2014, aged 35.[1][12] The John Hughes Arts Festival, founded by college students in 2014 in memory of Hughes,[13] provides a broad programme of arts events, the first of which was held in 2015.[14] Graced Life: The Writings of John Hughes (1979–2014) was published posthumously by SCM Press in 2016,[15] and was edited by Matthew Bullimore.[3]
