pp. 81-103, 1 suppl. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Author's name handwritten on cover, otherwise very good and clean. - Suppl.: Typographical corrections. - From the text: This article follows my earlier bibliography of the publications in classical scholarship by John Enoch Powell (b. 1912). Part 1 is an analysis of Powell’s inaugural lecture at the University of Sydney in 1938, Part 2 a discussion of some poems with classical themes that he wrote after he had left the academic world in 1939. These studies will show how Powell, in addition to his scholarly work, also attempted to define the role of Greek in the university curriculum, and made creative use of material from some major works of Greek literature. - Wikipedia: John Enoch Powell MBE (16 June 1912 – 8 February 1998) was a British politician, classical scholar, author, linguist, soldier, philologist, and poet.
