Edward Vernon Arnold

Born in 1857 and active in British academic life in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Edward Vernon Arnold was a scholar of both the classical world and ancient India. Records of his books identify him as a fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge, and later as Professor of Latin at University College of North Wales in Bangor.

His work ranged widely. In Vedic studies, he wrote Historical Vedic Grammar (1897) and Vedic Metre in Its Historical Development (1905), both showing his interest in the language and structure of early Sanskrit texts. In classical scholarship, he also wrote on pronunciation and Latin teaching, and his best-known later book, Roman Stoicism (1911), traced the history of Stoic philosophy with special attention to the Roman Empire.

Arnold died in 1926. No suitable verified portrait image was found from the pages checked, so a profile image is not included here.
