Bøker av A. W. Verrall

Originally published in 1905, this book contains four lengthy essays by the classical scholar A. W. Verrall on four plays by Euripides: Andromache, Helen, Orestes and Heracles, all of which Verrall considers to have been overlooked by contemporary scholarship. Verrall's assessment remains of use as a guide to these still-understudied plays.

Originally published one year after his death, the book collects a selection of articles by the respected Classicist Arthur Verrall (1851-1912). The essays, which include six previously unpublished papers, cover a variety of topics, including Latin verse and Greek history.

First published in 1914, this book derives from a series of lectures given by Arthur Woollgar Verrall. The text focuses on various aspects of Dryden's writings and his age, revealing 'the importance of his work in the development of English prose and verse, and its comparative neglect among the younger lovers of literature'.

Arthur Woolgar Verrall (1851-1912) was a classicist, a lecturer, and the first Professor of English Literature at the University of Cambridge. In this collection, published posthumously in 1913, the subjects range from Dante's epic poetry to Sir Walter Scott's prose, demonstrating the breadth of Verrall's literary consciousness and interest.
