Not only did British classics permeate England; they brought English values to Scotland, Wales, and America as well. Far into the twentieth century, to learn classics \"\"the Oxbridge way\"\" was to cloak oneself in the mantle of a gentleman--even when the \"\"gentleman\"\" was a woman.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"British Classics Outside England  contributes to a rich investigation of the intersecting histories of scholarship, politics, gender, and cultural identity.\" -- Lorna Hardwick, Director, Reception of Classical Texts Research Project, The Open University\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e \u003ci\u003eJudith P.
