A.E. Housman (1859-1936) was a man of many apparent contradictions,
most of which remain unresolved 150 years after his birth. At once
a deeply emotive lyric poet and a precise and dedicated classical
scholar, he achieved fame in both of these diverse disciplines.
Although his poetic legacy has received much scholarly analysis,
and yet more attention has been devoted to reconstructing his
private life, no previous work has focused on Housman the classical
scholar; yet it is upon scholarship that Housman most wished to
leave his mark. This timely collection of papers by leading
scholars reassesses the breadth and significance of Housman's
contribution to classical scholarship in both his published and
unpublished writings, and discusses how his mantle has been passed
on to later generations of classicists.
