McLEISH, K., The Theatre of Aristophanes. Thames and Hudson, n.p., 1980. 192p. Cloth. Spine dicoloured. Small personal library mark, name as well as author’s dedication on free endpaper.'This is a short and clear introduction to Aristophanes. As the title promises it concentrates on him as a writer for the theatre. (…) It tends to emphasize the theatrical aspects of the plays too much; one does not get quite enough about the literary skill shown in the lyrics and the various types of parody.' (N.G. WILSON in The Classical Review (New Series), 1981, p.109). From the library of the late Sir Kenneth James Dover. € 19.50 (Antiquarian)
