'Turyn's book 'The Byzantine Manuscript Tradition of the Tragedies of Euripides' (...) with its important discussion of the manuscripts L and P and in particular its convincing identification of the corrector of L. hitherto known as l, with Demetrius Triclinius, had made a detailed discussion of this branch of the tradition highly desirable, Professor Zuntz is eminently well qualified to carry out the task, and he has done it admirably; the evidence on which his conclusions rest is clearly set out, and the conclusions themselves show for the most part remarkably sound judgment.'
