Macksey was a celebrated Johns Hopkins University professor whose affiliation with the university spanned six and a half decades.

He was a man who read and wrote in six languages, was instrumental in launching a new era in structuralist thought in America, maintained a personal library containing a staggering collection of books and manuscripts, inspired generations of students to follow him to the thorniest heights of the human intellect, and penned or edited dozens of volumes of scholarly works, fiction, poetry, and translation." - Johns Hopkins University This is an oversized or heavy book, which requires additional postage for international delivery outside the US.
