Καθηγητής στην έδρα Γκρόουτ
Explanation:
Φαντάζομαι ότι πήρε το όνομά της από τον ιστορικό Τζορτζ Γκρόουτ, που είχε γράψει και την ιστορία της Ελλάδας, αλλά δεν έχει καμιά σημασία.

Αυτός πρέπει να είναι, γιατί η έδρα που περιγράφεις είναι στο UCL, που είναι στην Gower Street, και στην Wikipedia διαβάζω για τον Grote:
From 1826 to 1830 he was hard at work with JS Mill and Henry Brougham in the organization of the new "university" in Gower Street. He was a member of the council which organized the faculties and the curriculum; but in 1830, owing to a difference with Mill as to an appointment to one of the philosophical chairs, he resigned his position.

Ευχαριστώ, Νίκο.
Παραθέτω τα εξής από την πηγή του Αντράς που είναι διαφωτιστικά και υποδεικνύουν ότι πρόκειται για έδρα.

But if the nonconformists had won the first round in 1830, with, the radicals defeated them in the second, in 1866. Grote consolidated the victory in 1871, by dying, and leaving money to endow the Chair of Mind and Logic, on condition it was not held by a religious minister; if so the interest would be held over and added to capital. The money, however, was not immediately available as Grote had given his wife a life interest in his estate. However she relinquished this in1875, this before her death, and thus the Grote Chair of Mind and Logic was created, and indeed a few hundred pounds of the current Grote Chair’s salary is still paid from this source.

grote professor
Καθηγητής Α


Explanation:
Με πολύ μεγάλη επιφύλαξη, όντας όμως βεβαία ότι πρόκειται για τίτλο, μήπως είναι η βαθμίδα μετά τον Επίκουρο Καθηγητή, δηλαδή Καθηγητής Α; Παραπάνω παρέθεσα αυτό το απόσπασμα: ...was successively Lecturer, Reader, Professor, and then Grote Professor. Αφού είναι διαδοχικές βαθμίδες μπορεί να είναι και ομότιμος.
Πάντως, όπως είπε ο Νίκος έδρα Grote υπάρχει, στο UCL, αλλά είναι συγκεκριμένα φιλοσοφίας
