1930Maurice Hutton 1856-1940 "Was largely responsible for redesigning Toronto's honor classics program as another "Greats" with literature as the foremost ingredient. Students regarded him as "brilliant, Periclean Greek, far-ranging, witty, gently sarcastic ... an erudite Plato with a dash of the lightheartedness of Alcibiades." His wide-ranging mind and penchant for historical and contemporary parallels made him a lion in the defense and promulgation of the classics. His visit and idiosyncratic address to Gildersleeve's seminar at Johns Hopkins captivated his audience. His contributions to the Loeb Classical Library (revised later by R. M. Ogilvie and E. H. Warmington), his urbane wit, and provocative essays illuminated and graced a time of strain for classics in Toronto's higher education."

2007International Library of Political Studies (Volume 22) "How do those living in diaspora form their own national and transnational identity? The Greek Idea offers a new critical paradigm from which to explore these identities. Drawing upon postcolonial theory, Maria Koundoura addresses and analyzes the cultural material that produced Greeces representation as both Europes origin and "other". The long association of Greece and English Literature began with English travellers' "discovery" of Greece in the late-eighteenth century and the reinforcement of the myth which placed Greece as the location of Western culture. However Greece now finds itself on the boundary of a Europe which had originally placed it at the center. Koundoura maps what this dual representation signifies for Greeks, both national and diasporic. In doing so she touches on England, Greece, the United States, Australia and twentieth century diaspora cultures. For scholars of postcolonial, English, European, Balkan, Modern Greek, and Diaspora studies this fascinating contribution to the growing area of transnational culture studies opens up the critical discourse in their field." 214p.bibiography index.
