Gerald Else
Gerald Frank Else (1908, Redfield, South Dakota – 6 September 1982〔(Obituary of Gerald Else - New York Times 8 September 1982 ) Accessed 20 June 2015〕) was a distinguished American classicist. He was professor of Greek and Latin at University of Michigan and University of Iowa. Else is substantially credited with the refinement of Aristotelian scholarship in aesthetics in the 20th century to expand the reading of ''catharsis'' alone to include the aesthetic triad of ''mimesis'', ''hamartia'', and ''catharsis'' as all essentially linked to each other.〔Golden, Leon. ''Aristotle on tragic and comic mimesis'', Scholars Press, Atlanta, Georgia.〕 ==Biography== Else studied classics and philosophy at Harvard University and finished his PhD there in 1934. He taught at Harvard University until he joined the U.S. Marine Corps as a Captain in 1943. After completing his service, in 1945 he became chair of the University of Iowa Classics Department, and in 1954 went to the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, where he remained for the rest of his career. He was chair of that department from 1957-1968. During that time he founded the Center for Coordination of Ancient and Modern Studies, seeking to unite the humanities and to show how the study of the ancient world is relevant to modern literature and modern concerns.
