Quiller-Couch, Sir Arthur

Quiller-Couch, Sir Arthur (1863–1944),
English writer, editor, and critic, in some respects the archetypal ‘liberal man of letters’. Known as ‘Q’, he edited several influential Oxford Books: of English Verse; Ballads; Victorian Verse; and English Prose. Shakespeare's Workmanship, based on his Cambridge lectures, dates from 1918, but his widest readership was gathered by the earlier volumes of the Cambridge New Shakespeare, jointly edited with John Dover Wilson, for which ‘Q’ wrote the general introduction as part of the first volume, The Tempest (1921).
