Christopher Stray is an Honorary Research Fellow in the Department of Classics and Ancient History at Swansea University and the holder of qualifications in Classics, sociology, and education. After spending time teaching in schools, he has devoted himself to research and publication on the history of Classics in schools and universities, working extensively in archives of British, Irish, Greek, and American institutions. He co-founded the Textbook Colloquium in 1988 with Ian Michael and has authored and (co-)edited several works on classical and other textbooks, though he is best known for his major study, Classics Transformed: Schools, Universities, and Society in England, 1830-1960 (OUP, 1998). He is currently working on studies of the Hellenists E. R. Dodds and Kenneth Dover, and on Liddell and Scott's Greek lexicon, as well as writing chapters on Classics and education for the forthcoming history of Trinity College, Cambridge.
