I am a long-time user of wikipedia, and am now taking the plunge into editing.

Interests
I hold a PhD in Classics, and specialize in Latin literature of the Imperial period. My interests aren't constrained by my professional life, however. They include History of Science, 19th century novels, History of the Book, historical changes in the roles of encyclopedias and other reference works, and the organization of knowledge in general. In less serious moods I am also interested in Bollywood films and actors.
