Arnold J. Toynbee
E. M. Forster knew him personally and wrote a memoir of him, contained in his book "Alexandria". Forster, Arnold J. Toynbee, and T. S. Eliot were among the earliest promoters of Cavafy in the English-speaking world before the Second World War. In 1966, David Hockney made a series of prints to illustrate a selection of Cavafy's poems, including "In the dull village".
