23. A.E. Housman At The University Of London A.E. housman was appointed Professor of Latin at University College London in 1892. It was an unconventional choice on the college s part. http://www.victorianweb.org/authors/housman/banerjee.html

A.E. Housman at the University of London Jacqueline Banerjee , PhD; Contributing Editor, The Victorian Web Victorian Web Home Authors A. E. Housman Works ... Introduction A. E. Housman aged 35 . [Click on thumbnail for larger image.] A.E. Housman was appointed Professor of Latin at University College London in 1892. It was an unconventional choice on the college's part. As Dick Sullivan explains There are several theories about why such a brilliant undergraduate as Housman should have performed so disastrously in his finals at Oxford. Despite having gained a scholarship to St John's, he had not toed the line as a student, apparently out of a sense of intellectual superiority. Moreover, he had been distracted by his relationship with the athletic Moses Jackson ("the love affair of his life," Page, A. E. Housman , 41). In the immediate run-up to the examination, he had also been seriously alarmed about his father's state of health. Nevertheless, it was an extraordinary result. He then had to suffer the ignominy of returning to Oxford in the Michaelmas term of 1881 to satisfy the requirements of a mere pass degree. (The same fate would befall another poet, John Betjemann, nearly fifty years later). The failure devastated Housman and condemned him to a humdrum job. Though he was remembered later as a conscientious employee of the Patent Office, and even a sociable colleague, this was not how he wanted to spend his life. He had never dropped his classical studies entirely, and now devoted much of his free time to them. As a result, when he applied for the vacancy at University College, he had amassed a grand total of twenty-five scholarly papers and could summon a galaxy of distinguished referees. Later, he thanked the college for having pulled him out of the gutter (see Page

26. A.E. Houseman's Commentary On Manilius, I AE housman, author of The Shropshire Lad, was not only a great poet and a great scholar but also one of the greatest masters of the putdown. http://home.vicnet.net.au/~borth/MANILII3.HTM

M. MANILII ASTRONOMICON LIBER PRIMVS RECENSVIT ET ENARRAVIT A. E. HOVSMAN ACCEDVNT EMENDATIONES LIBRORVM II III IV LONDINII APVD GRANT RICHARDS MDCCCCIII The text of Manilius depends in the main upon four MSS. G, Gemblacensis, once of the monastery of Gembloux in Brabant, now 10012 in the public library of Brussels, assigned to the end of the 10th century or the beginning of the 11th, containing Manilius and Priscian's descriptio orbis. ... L, Lipsiensis, 1456 in the library of the university, of Leipsic, assigned to the middle of the 11th century. .... The two MSS G and L are bound into one class and parted from N and V by many marks of which it is enough to mention two the omission of certain verses and the position of others. .. The second family is derived from a MSS discovered north of the Alps by Poggio during the Council of Constance in the year 1416 or 1417. ... M, Matritensis, M 31 in the national library at Madrid, assigned to the early part of the 15th century.... V, Vossianus 390 (which Jacob chose to call Vossianus secundus and to denote by the clumsy sign V. 2.), 3 in the public library of Leyden, bearing the date 1470... II Manilius was first made known to the Italy of the renascence by Poggio's discovery of the MS whence M and V are derived. But copies of the other family soon found their way across the Alps; and the vulgar MSS from which the first editions were printed present a chance medley of the two elements, obscured by a cloud of additional errors and of conjectures mostly, false. A good example of the class is the Florentine codex Laurentianus.

LRB 5 July 2007 Frank Kermode print layout tell a friend Nothing for Ever and Ever Frank Kermode The Letters of A.E. Housman edited by Archie Burnett Buy this book When A.E. Housman failed his final examinations at Oxford he went to London to work as a clerk in the Patent Office. After ten years of that, he was appointed, at the age of 33, to the chair of Latin at University College London. In his application for the job he very properly drew attention to his Oxford failure. Not, you might think, a glowing CV, especially as he couldn’t claim any teaching experience. Yet these manifest disadvantages failed to deter the electors to the chair. They had their own criteria of eminence and saw that Housman was already one of the few. He would, before very long, be called the greatest Latinist of his age, to be named in the same breath as Bentley and Porson and Housman’s famous German contemporary Wilamowitz-Moellendorff. He was usually quite modest about his claims: ‘I wish they would not compare me to Bentley . . . I will not tolerate comparison with Bentley. Bentley is alone and supreme.’ However, ‘they may compare me with Porson if they will.’ He was willing, that is, to be compared only with the runner-up for the title of greatest English classical scholar. Ordinary readers, even if they have a bit of Latin, can have little notion of what it means to know it well; those who, in their day, did know it well were ready to appoint a young man with a record of academic failure to the most influential Latin chair outside Oxford and Cambridge.

Housman (the same poet famed for "A Shropshire Lad") in 1921 at a meeting of the Classical Society in Cambridge England. It elaborates on some definitions of textual criticism and offers both advice and chastening criticism of some common practices. Editors' note: The following text is taken from the Proceedings of the Classical Association In beginning to speak about the application of thought to textual criticism, I do not intend to define the term thought, because I hope that the sense which I attach to the word will emerge from what I say. But it is necessary at the outset to define
