John Enoch Powell was born in 1912, son of Albert Enoch Powell, schoolmaster. Powell won a scholarship to King Edward's School in Birmingham and in 1930 entered Trinity as an Entrance Scholar. In 1933 he graduated with a first class in classics. In 1934 he was elected a junior research fellow at Trinity where he worked on the Greek historians Thucydides and Herodotus. In 1938 he became Professor of Greek at the University of Sydney. After serving in WWII, Powell turned his back on an academic career and began the political one for which he is much more famous
This small collection contains materials produced while Powell was working on Thucydides and the filing cards used in developing his concordance to Herodotus.
