Series: Cambridge Greek and Latin Classics. 'Professor Thomas describes the 'Georgics as 'perhaps the most difficult, certainly the most controversial, poem in Roman literature' (vol.1, p.16). It would be fairer to say that it has received less critical discussion than some other difficult Latin poems (...); a new commentary is therefore particularly welcome. (…) T.’s most important novelty is his exploitation of Callimachus (…). It (…) remains to emphasise that T.’s commentary is well-informed, clear, and sensible, and a significant contribution to Virgilian studies.’ (R.G.M.

Flind tooling ex libris stamp, name and date on half title. Pencil annotation in Dutch form pp.52-54. Series: Cambridge Greek and Latin Classics. 'The commentary has the virtues of clarity and exactness, despite the general claim the series makes, to be one of 'commentaries that say more about works as literature ad concentrate less exclusively on textual and syntactical matters', this one seems most convincing and most at home on questions of grammar, metre, and orthography; C.'s background in philology is evident. The historical aspect is handled with a less sure touch.' (JASPER GRIFFIN in The Classical Review (New Series), 1978, p.246-47). € 18.00 (Antiquarian)
