Edward Jenner (writer)
Edward Jenner (born 1946 in Dunedin), is a New Zealand born poet, translator, teacher and researcher of Ancient Greek texts. He has lived in New Zealand and overseas teaching Classics and producing poems, translations, and scholarly articles. His poetry and research have been reviewed and remarked upon.[1] Gold Leaves, outlining the state of research into Ancient Greek lamellae, appeared in 2014. A volume of his poetry and prose poems appeared in 2009. The literary critic, Jack Ross, has described his 'postmodern classicism', and his attention to landscapes 'above all, those of the Africa' and his 'devotion to the particularities of memory'.[2]
