JAMES (1798-1876) , Irish classical See also:scholar, was See also:born in See also:Dublin on the 13th of See also:December 1798. He was educated at Trinity See also:College, and until 1845 practised as a physician in the See also:city. In spite of his unconventionality and unorthodox views on See also:religion and his own profession, he was very successful. His See also:accession to a large See also:fortune enabled him to devote himself entirely to the absorbing occupation of his See also:life—the study of See also:Virgil. Accompanied by his wife and daughter, he visited all those parts of See also:Europe where he was likely to find rare See also:editions or See also:MSS. of the poet. He died near Dublin on the 14th of See also:July
to be remembered, notwithstanding the occasional eccentricity of his notes and remarks. The first fruits of his researches were published at See also:Dresden in 1853 under the See also:quaint See also:title Notes of a Twelve Years' Voyage of See also:Discovery in the first six Books of the Eneis. These were embodied, with alterations and additions, in the Aeneidea, or See also:Critical, Exegetical and Aesthetical Remarks on the Aeneis (1873–1892), of which only the notes on the first See also:book were published during the author's lifetime. As a textual critic Henry was exceedingly conservative. His notes, written in a racy and interesting See also:style, are especially valuable for their See also:wealth of See also:illustration and references to the less-known classical authors. Henry was also the author of several poems, some of them descriptive accounts of his travels, and of various See also:pamphlets of a satirical nature.
See obituary See also:notice by J. P. See also:Mahaffy in the See also:Academy of the 12th of See also:August 1876, where a See also:list of his See also:works, nearly all of which were privately printed, is given.
