"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"
