WILLIS, J., Latin Textual Criticism. University of Illinois Press, Urbana (...), 1972. X,237p. Original blue gilt titled cloth. Nice copy. 'Here is yet another forceful plea for the use of reason in textual criticism. (...) His book contains much excellent material. The examples are nearly all well chosen and cogent, and the principles which are enunciated and illustrated in the course of the discussion are empirical in the best sense - inferred from the practice of the best critics and tested in Willis'own work on the text of Macrobius. The advice on the technique of collating (32-34) is based on editorial experience and strikes me as especially valuable.' (E.J. KENNEY in The Classical Review (New Series), 1975, pp.302-303). € 75.00 (Antiquarian)
