of the term extreme used in connection with certain sports. It refers to

and Stars Begotten on Their Night" — Michael Buhagiar
| "He was born in 1871 in
Sydney into an Irish Catholic family, and showed early promise as a
scholar. His precocity in Latin won him a scholarship to St. Ignatius
College, Riverview, run by the Jesuit fathers, and renowned for its
teaching of the Classics. Having starred both at Riverview and Sydney
University, he won a scholarship to Germany where, instead of applying
himself to his expected higher degree in Greek, he became immersed in
the contemporary Symbolist poets, conceiving an especial regard for
Stephane Mallarmé." |
