Recenzje

Did the world need a new critical edition of Aulus Gellius' Noctes Atticae just over half a century after P. K. Marshall published his Oxford Classical Text? Those who thought not are proven wrong by this magnificent edition by Leofranc Holford-Strevens ... He has produced not only the best edition of Gellius to date, but also a masterpiece of Latin textual scholarship ... His passion for the author, his deep knowledge of the text and his skill as a textual critic have helped to create a truly outstanding edition.
