Author Bio for Quiller-Couch, Arthur Thomas
Arthur Thomas Quiller-Couch (21 November 1863—12 May 1944) was a Cornish writer who published using the pseudonym Q. Although a prolific novelist, he is remembered mainly for the monumental publication The Oxford Book of English Verse 1250–1900 (later extended to 1918) and for his literary criticism.
Arthur Quiller-Couch was born in the town of Bodmin, Cornwall, by the union of two ancient local families, the Quiller family and the Couch family. He was educated at Newton Abbot Proprietary College, at Clifton College, and Trinity College, Oxford. From 1886 he was for a brief time a classical lecturer at Trinity.
