A Companion to Latin Literature. - HARRISON, St., (ed.),
KORTE INHOUD
'Do we really need another survey (or some such) of Latin literature after traditional histories such as CHCL 2, Conte, and Von Albrecht, and more unconventional introductions as those of Braund and Taplin? Well, as it turns out, we do. This new addition to Blackwell's ever-growing series very successfully blends the traditional with the unconventional. Not only does it adequately, sometimes superbly, sum up the status quaestionis of many debates in Latin scholarship, the Companion also points to interesting new avenues of research and will prove to be a quarry of dissertation topics for despairing graduate students, something to which this reviewer can testify. (...) I can warmly recommend this book, both to experts who wish to have an up-to-date account of the latest trends in the study of Latin literature and to undergraduate and graduate students who can mine this volume for suitable paper and even dissertation topics.' (ERIK HAMER in Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2006.04.19).
