He is the author of Redeeming the Text: Latin Poetry and the Hermeneutics of Reception (CUP, 1993) and Latin Poetry and the Judgement of Taste: An Essay in Aesthetics (OUP, 2005), as well as general editor, with David Hopkins, of the 5-volume Oxford History of Classical Reception in English Literature, four volumes of which have now been published. Stefano Evangelista is Associate Professor of English at the University of Oxford and a Fellow of Trinity College, Oxford. He works on nineteenth-century English and comparative literature with particular interests in the reception of the classics, Aestheticism and Decadence, and the relationship between literary and visual cultures. He is the author of British Aestheticism and Ancient Greece: Hellenism, Reception, Gods in Exile (Palgrave Macmillan, 2009), the editor of The Reception of Oscar Wilde in Europe (Bloomsbury, 2010), and the co-editor with Catherine Maxwell of Algernon Charles Swinburne: Unofficial Laureate (Manchester University Press, 2013).
