RASMUSSEN, D., Caesars Commentarii. Stil und Stilwandel am Beispiel der direkten Rede. Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht, Göttingen, 1963. 203p. Carton cover with dust wrps. ‘Caesarian scholarship (…) has unitarians and analysts. The latter, who maintain that BG 1-7 were published separately, have stressed the variation in style. But Rasmussen finds in stylistic change an argument for their unity and simultaneous publication: Caeasr’s Stilwandel is gradual, as is seen especially in the ‘orations rectae’. (…) Rasmussen has been eminently successful. If I was skeptical at first about certain details, I was usually convinced as I read on and saw all the interrelations. (…) This is a thorough monograph.’ (E.L. BASSETT in The Classical World, 1964, pp.88-89). € 18.00 (Antiquarian)
