,Among the first females c. expository
awarded a degree from Oxford
University, Dorothy L. Sayers
proved to be one of the most
versatile writers in post-war
England. Sayers was born in
1893, the only child of an
Anglican chaplain, and she
received an unexpectedly good
education at home. For instance,
her study of Latin commenced
when she was only six years old.
She entered Oxford in
1912, at a time when the
university was not granting
degrees to women. By 1920, this
policy had changed, and Sayers
received her degree in medieval
literature and modern languages
after finishing university. That
same year, she also received a
master of arts degree. Sayers's
first foray into published writing
was a collection of poetry
released in 1916. Within a few
years, she began work on the
detective novels and short
stories that would make her
famous due to the creation of
the foppish, mystery-solving
aristocrat Lord Peter Wimsey.
Sayers is also credited with the
short story Mysteries about
Montague Egg. In spite of her
success as a mystery writer,
Sayers continued to balance
popular fiction with academic
work; her translation of Dante's
Inferno gained her respect for
her ability to convey poetry in
English while still remaining true
to the Italian terza rima. She also
composed a series of twelve
plays about the life of Christ and
wrote several essays about
education and feminism. In her
middle age, Dorothy L. Sayers
published several works of
Christian apologetics, one of
which was so well-received that
the archbishop of Canterbury
attempted to present her with a
doctorate of
divinity. Sayers, for reasons
known only to her, declined.
