Harry Blamires, a graduate of University College, Oxford, was formerly Dean of Arts and Sciences at King Alfred’s College, Winchester. He was Visiting Professor of English Literature at Wheaton College, Illinois, in 1987. The University of Southampton has awarded him a D.Litt. in recognition of his achievements as a writer. His total output of some thirty books includes fiction and theology, but he is widely known for his works of literary history and criticism. These include A Short History of English Literature (Routledge) and Twentieth-Century English Literature (Macmillan). For over three decades students in the USA and the UK have benefitted from his classic guide to Joyce’s Ulysses, The New Bloomsday Book. More recently, in The Cassell Guide to Common Errors in English, he has shown how lively and entertaining the exploration of current usage can be.
