Arnold Wycombe Gomme

Arnold Wycombe Gomme (16 November 1886 – 17 January 1959) was a British classical scholar, lecturer in Ancient Greek (1911–1945), Professor of Greek at the University of Glasgow (1946–1957), and Fellow of the British Academy (1947).

He studied at Merchant Taylor's School and Trinity College, Cambridge.

From November 1915 to October 1916, was chief of MI-1c political and economic intelligence in Thessaloniki, Greece.

He was the father of Andor Gomme, Professor of English Literature and Architectural History at Keele University.

Ernst Badian criticised Gomme's Commentary because Gomme assumed that the numerous speeches in Thucydides' work were verbatim reproductions of what was said, while the academic consensus is to consider the speeches to be inventions.
