Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of papers from the founding conference of the Classical Association of England and Wales. The establishment of this Association in Oxford in 1904 was a significant event, bringing together notable scholars of the day, including the Master of the Rolls (Sir Richard Henn Collins), who served as the Association's first President, along with Sir Evelyn Shirley Shuckburgh, Professor R. S. Conway, and Sir John Edwin Sandys. The papers presented and discussed at the conference focus on the main aims and objectives of the Association as it prepared to establish itself as an influential force for the study of Greek and Latin. The papers offer a wealth of insights on the relevance and value of classical languages, including Professor J. W. Mackail's thought-provoking address on the place of Greek and Latin in human life and culture. Together, these papers provide valuable historical context for the development of classical studies in England, offering insights into the motivations and arguments of those who sought to promote and preserve the study of Greco -Roman languages and culture.
