About this product
Product Information
Jane Ellen Harrison (1850 - 1928), who spent most of her life at Newnham College, Cambridge, was renowned for her work on Greek art and religion. In her application of anthropology to classical studies, she stirred up controversy amongst her academic colleagues, while, at the same time, influencing many writers, including Yeats, D. H. Lawrence, and Virginia Woolf. Despite many difficulties, both academic and personal, her brilliant mind and strength of character enabled her to open up new possibilities for academic women.

Great product as described and super fast shipping. Seller never responded back to my messages. Still showing delivery in transit when it was delivered days ago. Overall very satisfied with the product, top notch, brand new at the best price, less than half of regular price. I can recommend this seller despite of their lack of communication.
