Among the first females awarded a degree from Ox- ford 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 Angli- can 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 col- lection 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, mys- tery-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 apolo- getics, one of which was so well-received that the archbishop of Canterbury attempted to present her with a doctorate of divinity.
