Elspeth Kennedy : ウィキペディア英語版 | Elspeth Kennedy Elspeth Mary Kennedy, MA, DPhil, FSA (6 August 1921 – 10 March 2006)〔http://brepols.metapress.com/content/p1t142751w267317 BREPOLS Journals Online, accessed 19 Sept. 2009〕 was a British academic and a prominent medievalist. ==Early life and education== Elspeth Kennedy was born in Berkshire. Her academic career was delayed by World War II, during which she worked for the government — in 1940, while still 18 years of age she began working for MI5, domiciled initially at Wormwood Scrubs〔http://www.guardian.co.uk/news/2006/may/18/guardianobituaries.mainsection Obituary for Elspeth Kennedy, printed in The Guardian on Thursday 18 May 2006 (accessed 19 Sept. 2009)〕 and later at Bletchley Park. Because the work, though essential, was repetitive, Kennedy studied Russian in her spare time, and initially laid plans to become a Russian historian. However, when she engaged a tutor to prepare her for entrance to Oxford, the tutor's enthusiasm for French medieval history swayed Kennedy in that direction. Kennedy attended Somerville College, Oxford from 1945 to 1947 on a scholarship.〔''Guardian obituary''〕 She went on to do research, and 1948 embarked on her life's main theme, the Lancelot en prose.
