"Habermehl's ninety-page commentary on the Widow of Ephesus is probably the best available analysis of the tale, which [...] has achieved more fame than the Cena Trimalchionis. He follows the story of the Widow to Joyce's Dublin, a related version even to China, but his primary goal throughout his commentary is traditional, hard-core, philological research: textual, linguistic, historical, literary." Gareth Schmeling("A Commentary on the Satyrica of Petronius", Oxford 2011), in: GNOMON 94, 2022, 173-175
