Professor D. R. Shackleton Bailey - Obituaries, News - The Independent

I had Prof. Shackleton Bailey for Latin Prose Composition at Harvard. He died, age 87, in late 2005. He had a long and distinguished career at Cambridge, where he taught Tibetan and Classics, before crossing the pond to teach at Michigan and Harvard. This is a typically fascinating British broadsheet obituary.
