Historia
Arthur Guy Lee known informally as Guy Lee, was a British Classical scholar and poet. He was particularly notable as a Latinist for his work on the Roman poets Ovid, Propertius, and Catullus; he also translated Virgil's Eclogues, Tibullus, and Persius.
He was an undergraduate at St John's College, Cambridge. He taught at the University of Cambridge for most of his career, where he was admitted as a Fellow of St John's in 1946.
In the Second World War, he joined the British military, and was posted in Iceland, where he learned Icelandic and earned a military award for his work on ciphers. He was later posted to French North Africa, Belgium, Italy, Norway, and Germany.
He returned to Cambridge after the war and served as a librarian, tutor, praelector, and lecturer of classics at various times.
He died in Cambridge in 2005, and is buried at Ascension Parish Burial Ground.
