The founding of the Oxford Readership in Geology, 1818
The British Government became increasingly aware during the Napoleonic Wars of the contrast between the organization of science teaching and research on the Continent under state patronage and the paucity of official interest and encouragement in this country. When it was seen how quickly Napoleon was able to mobilize the French scientific and technological teaching establishments with their staffs and pupils to the war effort, successive British…
William Buckland, F. R. S. (1784-1856) and an Oxford geological lecture, 1823
DURING the early part of the nineteenth century, the University of Oxford came under severe attack from its critics both on the grounds of its religious exclusiveness based on the imposition of subscription to the Thirty-nine Articles, and also because of its adherence to a constrained and outmoded curriculum. Science found no place in the scheme of studies for the first degree and the Oxford graduate who aspired to medical or chemical qualificat…

Some Notes on the Herodas Papyrus
In these days no edition of a classic, least of all of a ‘new’ classic, can claim to be final; and since the able editor of the Cambridge Herodas has found reason to reconsider some of his readings, there is clearly room for an independent examination of the text. This paper embodies the result of several weeks' close study of the papyrus in 1923 and 1924. To save space I have begun a note with a new line only where it is of more than usual inter…
Sappho's Book as depicted on an Attic Vase
The fifth-century vase numbered 1260 in the collection of the National Museum at Athens and 1241 in the Catalogue of Collignon and Couve represents Sappho seated reading from a roll to three women, one of whom (left) holds a wreath over Sappho, and another (right) holds out a lyre towards her. By the kindness of the Director of the British School I have recently been able to study the inscriptions on the roll in enlarged photographs, and also to …
Some Notes on Longvs
i 2. Longus is telling of the discovery of the infant Daphnis: Seiler ‘ caute et anxie circumeuntem,’ Hirschig ‘ caute circumeuntem.’ Tense as well as context point to ‘ bestriding.’ See L. and S. under
Sappho's Ode to the Nereids
When the first volume of the Oxyrhynchus Papyri was published in 1898, all lovers of Sappho must have been disappointed with the latter half of Blass's otherwise excellent restoration of this poem. The perusal of a recent article by J. Sitzler, in which later suggestions are discussed and fresh ones made, only serves to confirm this feeling of dissatisfaction. Sappho's extant work elsewhere combines a dignified simplicity of matter with a dignifi…
