Frederic W. H. Myers
Frederic William Henry Myers (6 February 1843, in Keswick, Cumberland – 17 January 1901, in Rome) was a poet, classicist, philologist, and a founder of the Society for Psychical Research.〔William James. (Frederic Myers's Service to Psychology ) ''The Popular Science Monthly'', August 1901, pp. 380–389.〕 Myers' work on psychical research and his ideas about a "subliminal self" were influential in his time, but have not been accepted by the scientific community.〔Janet Oppenheim. (1985). ''The Other World: Spiritualism and Psychical Research in England, 1850-1914''. Cambridge University Press. pp. 254-262. ISBN 978-0521265058〕〔Jenny Hazelgrove. (2000).

==Early life==
Myers was the son of Revd Frederic Myers (1811–1851) and his second wife Susan Harriet Myers ''nee'' Marshall (1811–1896). He was a brother of poet Ernest Myers (1844–1921) and of Dr. Arthur Thomas Myers (1851–1894).〔 His maternal grandfather was the wealthy industrialist John Marshall (1765–1845).〔Gauld (2004)〕
Myers was educated at Cheltenham College and at Trinity College, Cambridge, where he received a B.A. in 1864,〔Catherine W. Reilly (2000). (Victorian poetry, 1860–1879: an annotated biobibliography ) Continuum International Publishing Group, p. 332.〕 and university prizes, including the Bell, Craven, Camden and Chancellor's Medal, though he was forced to resign the Camden medal for 1863 after accusations of plagiarism.〔 He was a Fellow of Trinity College from 1865 to 1874 and college lecturer in classics from 1865 to 1869. In 1872 be became an Inspector of schools.〔
In 1867, Myers published a long poem, ''St Paul'', which became popular. The poem included the words of the hymn ''Hark what a sound, and too divine for hearing''.〔http://www.hymntime.com/tch/htm/h/a/w/hawhatas.htm〕 This was followed in 1882 by ''The Renewal of Youth and Other Poems''. He also wrote books of literary criticism, in particular ''Wordsworth'' (1881) and ''Essays, Classical and Modern'' (in two volumes, 1883), which included an essay on Virgil.
