Written to celebrate the 100th birthday of Sir Kenneth Dover, this
volume unites the two major elements in his life: the relatively
private groundbreaking scholarly work he did on aspects of Greek
language and history and the more public-facing roles he assumed in
universities and at the British Academy that led to him being in
the national spotlight later in his career. The contributors to
this volume consider all the major facets of Dover's life and work,
setting them in the context of the burgeoning field of the history
of scholarship. Contributors include students and colleagues of
Dover's at different stages of his career, while others are
themselves leading experts in areas of Classics to which Dover
devoted his energies. Chapters on his academic works and the
controversies he faced in public life are not bland celebrations of
his legacy but critique and assess his life and work, ensuring that
there is much to be learned not just about Dover but also about the
fields he helped to shape.
