George Derwent Thomson
George Derwent Thomson ((アイルランド語:Seoirse Mac Tomáis); Dulwich, London,〔(Welcome to Classics, NUI Galway )〕 1903 – Birmingham, 3 February 1987) was an English classical scholar, Marxist philosopher, and scholar of the Irish language.
==Classical scholar==
Thomson studied Classics at King's College, Cambridge where he attained First Class Honours in the Classical Tripos and subsequently won a scholarship to Trinity College, Dublin.〔Richard Roche, 'On Island Life and Strangling Goats', The Irish Times, 26 September 1998〕 At TCD he worked on his first book, ''Greek Lyric Metre'', and began visiting Na Blascaodaí in the early nineteen-twenties. He became lecturer and then Professor of Greek at NUI Galway.
He moved back to England in 1934, when he returned to King's College, Cambridge, to lecture in Greek. He became a professor at Birmingham University in 1936, the year he joined the Communist Party of Great Britain. Thomson pioneered a Marxist interpretation of Greek drama. His ''Aeschylus and Athens'' and ''Marxism and Poetry'' won him international attention. In the latter book he argued a connection between the work song and poetry; and that pre-industrial songs were connected to ritual.〔Gerald Porter, '' 'The World's Ill-Divided': the Communist Party and Progressive Song'', p. 181, in ''A Weapon in the Struggle'' (1998), editor Andy Croft.〕
Thomson befriended, and was an important influence on Alfred Sohn-Rethel and his theory of the genesis of occidental thought in Ancient Greece through the invention of coining.
