Regards sur la 'truphè' étrusque. - LIÉBERT, Y.,

KORTE INHOUD

'In this book L. has given us the first comprehensive and, one might say, revisionist study of Etruscan 'truphè', the self-indulgent and semi-barbaric lifestyle commonly identified in the writings of ancient authors. While L.'s is primarily a literary take on the subject, he proposes to read the representatiosn of 'truphè' against the background of how the Etruscans represented their own lifestyle. (...) L.'s study (...) is a welcome addition to the historiographic study of a culture that deserves a more prominent place within Classics than it currently hold. The relevant passages are reproduced in full and translated into French, including five appendices. The indexes have been meticulously compiled and the bibliography is up-to-date.'
