Henry Laurie was an Australian philosopher, a journalist, and the first professor of philosophy at the University of Melbourne. Laurie was educated at the University of Edinburgh where he was strongly influenced by the philosopher Alexander Campbell Fraser. Laurie did not graduate from the university for health reasons, and then moved first to Canada, then to Victoria. In Australia, he became a journalist and contributed to the Warrnambool Examiner, and subsequently edited the weekly newspaper, the Warrnambool Standard, in partnership with a printer and journalist named William Fairfax. His interests remained literary and philosophical throughout.
