Summary

The essays in this informative book explore 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 England 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. Not only did British classics permeate England, they brought English values to Scotland, Wales, and America as well. Far into the twentieth century, to learn classics "the Oxbridge way" was to cloak oneself in the mantle of a gentleman - even when the "gentleman" was a woman.
