This is the first comprehensive account of the life and work of the
distinguished scholar and public figure Gilbert Murray (1866-1957).
Sixteen contributors survey his childhood, his work in the theatre
and in international relations, his Greek scholarship and
contributions on religion and philosophy, his friendships
(including those with Bertrand Russell and A. E. Housman), his long
commitment to the Home University Library, his radio work, and his
involvement with psychic research. The book opens with memoirs by
two of his grandchildren. Two biographies of Murray were published
in the 1980s, but the range of his activities makes it impossible
for a single person to encompass them all adequately. This book,
published 50 years after his death, aims to proved a comprehensive
reassessment of a remarkable man.
