Autorenporträt
Stephen Heyworth has been Bowra Fellow and Tutor in Classics at Wadham College, Oxford, since 1988, and has regularly read through Aeneid 3 in classes with his undergraduates. In 2007 he issued a radical new edition of Propertius in the Oxford Classical Texts series together with a detailed textual commentary entitled Cynthia, and subsequently published a literary and grammatical commentary on Book 3 with OUP in collaboration with James Morwood. He has also published on Catullus, Vergil, Horace, and Ovid, and has particular interests in the Callimachean tradition in Latin poetry and issues of poem division, politics, topography, and genre. His main focus is currently on Ovid's Fasti: he is writing a commentary on Book 3, to be published by Cambridge University Press, and is studying the manuscript tradition as he moves towards an edition of the whole poem for the Oxford Classical Texts series. James Morwood was Head of Classics at Harrow School from 1979 until 1996 before becoming Grocyn Lecturer at the University of Oxford, responsible for the Greek and Latin language teaching in the Classics Faculty. He has long played an important part in the support systems for Classics in schools: in particular he has been President of the Joint Association of Classical Teachers and the London Association of Classical Teachers and is about to become editor of ad fam, the journal of Classics for All. As well as co-authoring A Commentary on Propertius, Book 3 with Stephen Heyworth, he has produced Greek and Latin Grammars and a Latin dictionary for OUP as the co-author of the Oxford Latin Course. His academic work has centred on Greek tragedy and Augustan poetry.
