Mildred Pope : ウィキペディア英語版 | Mildred Pope Mildred Katherine Pope (1872 – 16 September 1956) was an English scholar of Anglo-Norman England. She became the first woman to hold a readership at Oxford University. ==Biography== Mildred Pope was educated at Edgbaston High School, Birmingham. She read French at Somerville College, Oxford, and in 1893 was placed in the first-class of the Oxford University women's examination. Interested in Old French philology, as an undergraduate "she had to rely mainly on tuition by correspondence from Paget Toynbee at Cambridge".〔'Obituary: Prof. Mildred K. Pope', ''The Manchester Guardian'', 18 September 1956〕 She taught at Somerville College, Oxford, first as a librarian, and from 1894 as a lecturer. She spent the 1894 summer vacation studying with Fritz Neumann at Heidelberg. In 1902-3 she spent a sabbatical year working in Paris under Gaston Paris and Paul Meyer,〔 a doctoral degree from the University of Paris in 1904, with a dissertation on Frère Angier.〔 Given Oxford's policy on admitting women she was not granted a degree from Oxford until after World War I. She was appointed lecturer, then university reader (in 1928—the first woman at Oxford to achieve that position〔), and became vice-principal of Somerville in 1929. She left Oxford for Manchester in 1934 and was later honored with emeritate.〔 At the University of Manchester, she was appointed professor of French language and romance philology. In 1939, she became the first woman to receive an honorary doctorate from a French university, in her case the University of Bordeaux.〔 After her death in 1956, ''The Oxford Magazine'', in an obituary, called her one of Somerville's "oldest, most distinguished and well-loved members."
