A complete treatment of Aeneid XI, with a thorough introduction to key characters, context, and metre, and a detailed line-by-line commentary which will aid readers' understanding of Virgil's language and syntax. Indispensable for students and instructors reading this important book, which includes the funeral of Pallas and the death of Camilla.

A selection of the work of ten poets with detailed introduction and linguistic, literary and cultural commentary suitable for upper-level undergraduates and graduate students, but also of interest to scholars. Includes some major pieces, such as the recently discovered Plataea elegy of Simonides and Telephus elegy of Archilochus.

By attending to language, style, meter, dramatic technique, and context, this up-to-date edition makes an appealing and under appreciated play accessible to students, scholars, and readers of Greek at all levels. While recognizing the play's light touches, it takes its exploration of Apollo's Oracle, Ion's piety, and Creusa's suffering seriously.

This edition is designed to facilitate reading of Pseudolus, one of Plautus' most innovative and delightful plays and a lens into Roman slave society. It assumes no specialised knowledge of early Latin, Plautus' social-historical milieu, or ancient comedy and provides students with all the help needed to understand the Latin.

The first modern commentary in English on this most sophisticated and brilliant of ancient Greek novels. With its freewheeling plotline, its setting on the edge of the Greek world, its ironic play with the reader's expectations and its sallies into obscenity, it will appeal strongly to students and instructors.
