Angus Morton Bowie (born 1949) is a British academic, Emeritus Lobel fellow in Classics at The Queen's College, Oxford.
After attending St Peter's School, York, Bowie studied for his undergraduate and graduate degrees at Emmanuel College, Cambridge, under the academic supervision of P. E. Easterling.
On 4 May 2018, he delivered a eulogy at the funeral of his long-time partner, Peter Bayley, onetime Drapers Professor of French at the University of Cambridge.
In a decade when structuralism was seen as outdated and restrictive by classicists, and deconstruction was becoming more and more popular, this book contributed to a positive re-evaluation of structuralist approaches to literature.
Later (and contemporary) scholarship in the field has confirmed that "Future studies of myth and ritual in Aristophanes and other poets of Old Comedy, will surely be indebted to Bowie's important first steps".
