The Legacy of the Drunken Duchess: Grace Harriet Macurdy, Barbara Mcmanus and Classics at Vassar College, 1893–1946
ISSN: 2632-4091 History of Classical Scholarship 22 December 2019 Issue 1 (2019): 94–127 THE LEGACY OF THE DRUNKEN DUCHESS: GRACE HARRIET MACURDY, BARBARA MCMANUS AND CLASSICS AT VASSAR COLLEGE, 1893–1946 — JUDITH P. HALLETT — ABSTRACT This paper builds on a monumental biography published by the Ohio State Uni- versity Press in 2017: The Drunken Duchess of Vassar: Grace Harriet Macurdy, Pioneering Feminist Scholar, by the late Barbara McManus. Macurdy (1866– 1946), who came from a family without social, economic and educational ad- vantages, joined the Classics faculty at the all-female Vassar College in 1893 after receiving BA and MA degrees from Harvard University’s Radcliffe Annex. Following a year studying in Berlin, she received her PhD from Columbia in 1903, and immediately established herself as an internationally renowned Greek scholar, ultimately publishing two groundbreaking books on ancient women’s history. I will contextualize Macurdy’s life and work by looking at evi- dence beyond the purview of McManus’ book about two of Macurdy’s equally illustrious Classics colleagues, who taught with her at Vassar prior to her retirement in 1937 — Elizabeth Hazelton Haight (1872–1964) and Lily Ross Taylor (1886–1969). KEYWORDS Grace Harriet Macurdy, Barbara McManus, Vassar College, Elizabeth Hazelton Haight, Lily Ross Taylor, women’s history 1. Grace H. Macurdy’s Legacy y essay and the research it represents build on a monumental work of biographical scholarship published by the Ohio State M University Press in 2017: The Drunken Duchess of Vassar: Grace Harriet Macurdy, Pioneering Feminist Scholar, by Barbara McManus.1 Macurdy, who lived from 1866 through 1946, taught Classics at the then all-female Vassar College for 44 years, from 1893 through 1937. -

Lily Ross Taylor Beyond Bryn Mawr College
ISSN: 2632-4091 History of Classical Scholarship 30 January 2021 Issue 3 (2021): 1–53 LILY ROSS TAYLOR BEYOND BRYN MAWR COLLEGE — JUDITH P. HALLETT — ABSTRACT Written to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of her death in 1969, my essay on the Roman historian Lily Ross Taylor focuses on her influence as scholar, teacher and educational leader beyond Bryn Mawr College, where she received her doctorate in Latin in 1912, and taught from 1927 through 1952. Among her achievements as public intellectual and academic celebrity, often as the first woman classicist so recognized, are her 1947 Sather lectures at the University of California at Berkeley, 1964–1965 Jerome lectures at the University of Michigan and the American Academy in Rome, and write-ups in such popular US venues as Life and Time magazines. They also include the piazza and garden named in her honor in 2009 by the Italian town of Ciciliano in Lazio, whose territory she had identified as the ancient municipality of Trebula Suffenas. Drawing on reminiscences from those who knew her as well as archival materials and an unpublished manuscript by Taylor herself on “Intolerance and Racial Differences”, I seek to locate Taylor, her accomplishments, and her global legacy today in a variety of different, less glamorous “elsewheres.” KEYWORDS Lily Ross Taylor, Bryn Mawr College, American Academy in Rome, Roman history, Latin, Fascism, intolerance, racial differences begin on a personal note.1 Unlike many of the other classicists who have remembered and assessed the life and work of Lily Ross Taylor, I I have never attended, nor been employed at, Bryn Mawr College. -
