| Meer info | 'This is a most beneficial book. Horsefall writes the lion's share of it, but he has assembled an impressive cast of scholars to assist him. (...) Besides the book's balanced attitude towards interpretation of the poems, I would select the following as its most salient virtues. (i) The contributor's ability to weigh, judge and provide facts, such a welcome commodity in these abstract days (...) (ii). The colossal mastery of secondary material that H. in particular displays (...) (iii) Profitable, justified succinctness (...), (iv) Good questions are asked, of very different sorts (...). H & co. are models of humane writing. What a favour critics do themselves when they write like this! The reader can understand, and is in a position and mood to be persuaded. (...) This is a book for teachers to recommend to their students. More senior scholars too must have this book on their shelves. They will appreciate the clear and balanced surveys - and the huge quantitiy of useful information. There is, I should add, a very full index, another sine qua non of a secondary work in the modern world.' (R.O.A.M. LYNE in The Classical Review, New Series, Vol. 49, No. 2 (1999), pp. 383-384). |
