Recenzje

"This is a rich and wide-ranging collection of essays. While it can sometimes be the case that an edited volume is purchased or picked up for the sake of a few of its essays, the scope and quality of the contributions in this book make this a book worth perusing with pleasure. Chapters speak, directly or indirectly, to each other, and are organised into sections which develop a clear progression of ideas... This book will be a valuable addition to personal and academic libraries of books on Latin poetry and its long afterlife."
- Bryn Mawr, Classical Review

"The topics and issues addressed are very diverse, so that the articles are each followed by their own bibliography, which is most convenient in such cases; A general index completes the set."
- François Ripoll, Anabases
