An Inaugural Address delivered before the first Annual General Meeting of the Society, 11th May, 1911

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  24 September 2012

Extract

If a cynic were asked why the Society for the Promotion of Roman Studies had been founded, he might reply that it was done to satisfy the grumbles of a few specialists. That is certainly a part of the truth. But this meeting would not have been convened nor would the council of the society have bidden the President to deliver an inaugural address unless much larger issues had been involved.
