WILLIAM See also:WATSON (1831– ) , See also:American classical See also:scholar, was See also:born in See also:Concord, See also:Massachusetts, on the 9th of May 1831. He graduated at Harvard in 1851, studied in See also:Germany, was See also:tutor in See also:Greek at Harvard in 1856–186o, and See also:Eliot See also:professor of Greek there from 186o until his resignation in 1901. He became an overseer of Harvard in 1903. In 1882–1883 he was the first director of the American School for Classical Studies at See also:Athens. Goodwin edited the Panegyricus of Isocrates (1864) and See also:Demosthenes On The See also:Crown (1901); and assisted in preparing the seventh edition of See also:Liddell and See also:Scott's Greek-See also:English See also:Lexicon. He revised an English version by several writers of See also:Plutarch's Morals (5 vols., 1871; 6th ed., 1889), and published the Greek See also:text with literal English version of See also:Aeschylus' See also:Agamemnon (1906) for the Harvard See also:production of that See also:play in See also:June 1906. As a teacher he did much to raise the See also:tone of classical See also:reading from that of a See also:mechanical exercise to See also:literary study. But his most important See also:work was his Syntax of the Moods and Tenses of the Greek Verb (1860), of which the seventh revised edition appeared in 1877 and another (enlarged) in 1890. This was " based in See also:part on See also:Madvig and See also:Kruger," but, besides making accessible to American students the See also:works of these See also:continental grammarians, it presented See also:original See also:matter, including a " See also:radical innovation in the See also:classification of conditional sentences," notably the " distinction between particular and See also:general suppositions." Goodwin's Greek See also:Grammar (elementary edition, 187o;.enlarged 1879; revised and enlarged 1892) gradually superseded in most American See also:schools the Grammar of See also:Hadley and See also:- ALLEN, BOG OF

Allen. Both the ,Moods and Tenses and the Grammar in later See also:editions are largely dependent on the theories of See also:Gildersleeve for additions and changes. Goodwin also wrote a few elaborate syntactical studies, to be found in Harvard Studies in Classical See also:Philology, the twelfth See also:volume of which was dedicated to him upon the completion of fifty years as an alumnus of Harvard and See also:forty-one years as 'Eliot professor.
was unable to establish factories there. In See also:France a See also:company for the manufacture of vulcanized See also:rubber by his See also:process failed, and in See also:December 1855 he was arrested and imprisoned for See also:debt in See also:Paris. Owing to the expense of the litigation in which he was engaged and to See also:bad business management, he profited little from his inventions. He died in New See also:York See also:City on the 1st of See also:July 186o. He wrote an See also:account of his See also:discovery entitled See also:- GUM (Fr. gomme, Lat. gommi, Gr. Kµµ1, possibly a Coptic word; distinguish " gum," the fleshy covering of the base of a tooth, in O. Eng. gbma, palate, cf. Ger. Gaumen, roof of the mouth; the ultimate origin is probably the root gha, to open wide, seen in
Gum-Elastic and its Varieties (2 vols., New Haven, 1853-z855).
