TY Chrise and Mamya

Hi mamya
I saw the "set back", but why is AE an Irish poet?

Hi Chrise, This should explain.

George William Russell (10 April 1867 – 17 July 1935) who wrote with the pseudonym Æ (sometimes written AE or A.E.), was an Irish nationalist, writer, editor, critic, poet, and artistic painter.

Also, good evening mamya : )

Thanks, shooty - never heard of him.

Ps, I am not disputing Aetes at all. But on both my reference pages the name has the spelling of 'Aeetes'.
Does the TLS stipulate a specific edition of the Oxford or Cambridge ?

Me neither Chrise, thank goodness for google. : )
