British Classics Outside England

The Academy and Beyond

Herausgeber: Stray, Christopher; Hallett, Judith P.

Beschreibung

Explores the impact of British classics - the study of Greco-Roman antiquity, with an emphasis on the classical Latin and Greek languages - beyond the borders of Britain itself, during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries: inside the academy as specialized scholarship and teaching, outside the academy as a mode of social and cultural formation.
