Autorenporträt

William Warde Fowler, born on 16 May 1847 in Langford Budville, United Kingdom, was an English historian, ornithologist, and tutor at Lincoln College, Oxford. Fowler developed a strong interest in the study of ancient Roman religion and culture, becoming well known for his contributions to the understanding of Roman history. His scholarship combined a keen eye for historical detail with a broader interest in natural history, particularly ornithology. Throughout his career, Fowler gained recognition for his ability to make the complexities of Roman religious practices accessible to both students and general readers. Among his most notable works was The Roman Festivals of the Period of the Republic, a detailed examination of the religious observances and their significance in Roman life. Fowler's writings reflected both academic rigor and a deep appreciation for the cultural and spiritual dimensions of the Roman world. He continued to contribute to historical scholarship until his death on 15 June 1921 in Kingham, United Kingdom, leaving a lasting legacy through his meticulous studies of ancient Rome and his dedication to education.
