About David West

David Alexander West was a British classical scholar who served as Professor and then emeritus Professor of Latin at Newcastle University from 1969 until his death. Described as "one of the world's leading scholars and teachers of Latin and the Classics", West's outreach and curriculum reforms as Chair corresponded to Newcastle's becoming a "powerhouse of classical learning". He encouraged close reading in class and produced accessible translations of the Aeneid and Horace's Odes. He was also interested in English literature and published a commentary on Shakespeare's sonnets.
