He taught at Reed College, Haverford College, was the Francis White Professor of Greek at The Johns Hopkins University, the Blegen Distinguished Research Professor at Vassar College, the Distinguished Professor of Classics, Philosophy, and Comparative Literature at the Graduate Center of The City University of New York. He served as the R.J.R. Nabisco Distinguished Professor of Classical Studies at Duke University until his retirement in 2008. He received numerous fellowships and grants, among them a Fulbright Grant to Montpelier and Poitiers in France and a fellowship to the American School of Classical Studies at Athens, Greece, and the Center for Hellenic Studies in Washington, D.C. He was a prolific writer, beginning his published career at the age of eight with an article about Jack London’s “Call of the Wild.” His main publications were on ancient Greek philosophy and Greek literature, including Lucretius and Epicurus, Archilochos Heros, an introduction to Marcus Aurelius´ Meditations, and Platonic Questions. He also translated Greek tragedians and John Locke. His latest labors of love were a translation and commentary of Lucian’s True History; The Art of Hell: From Dante’s Inferno to Rodin’s The Gate of Hell and Dante’s Parnassus: The Pagan Poetry of the Divine Comedy (Arion Fall 2014); and his memoirs, Apollonios: Fragments of a Life Never Whole. Recent works focused on French poets, French painters, and English travelers.
