After military service he studied languages at Cambridge University, graduating there in 1952. In that same year he was awarded a scholarship by the Austrian Government to study baroque literature at Vienna University. His intention was to return to England and teach German at university level. Instead, after taking his doctorate in 1954, he stayed on in Vienna as English teacher, translator and school radio playwright. In 1999 he was awarded the title of Professor in recognition of his services to the Republic of Austria.view less
