Edith Hamilton (1867–1963) was perhaps the most famous and influential classicist of the twentieth century. Her bestselling Mythology remains a standard version of the stories of the ancient world. Huntington Cairns (1904–1985) was a writer and lawyer who worked at different times for the U.S. Treasury, the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, and Johns Hopkins University. Rebecca Newberger Goldstein is a philosopher and novelist whose books include Plato at the Googleplex: Why Philosophy Won’t Go Away and Thirty-Six Arguments for the Existence of God: A Work of Fiction.
