Description

This groundbreaking monograph examines how the discipline of Classics and its practitioners are portrayed in fiction written across the United Kingdom and the United States from the 19th century to the present day. As the first book-length study of Classics and classicists in the popular imagination, it provides unique insight into how these subjects have captured literary attention over nearly two centuries. The work begins by establishing the distinctive role Classics has played in British and North American education before systematically analysing fictional representations of classicists spanning from the 19th century through to around 1960. The subsequent thematic exploration reveals consistent patterns and tendencies in how authors have depicted the discipline and its scholars across different periods and cultural contexts. Essential reading for scholars of Classics, literary studies, and the history of education.

The study explores the unique historical role that Classics held in British and North American educational systems and its cultural significance in literary works.
