BLUME, H.-D., Einführung in das antike Theaterwesen. Wissenschaftliche Buchgesellschaft, Darmstadt, 1978. X,139,XIVp. Photographs. Sewn. Some pencil markings and annotations from WGA.'This book contains a compact survey of the Roman theatre, but is naturally mainly devoted to the Greek theatre, on which there is a brief but useful section on dramatic, archaeological, and literary sources and a very extensive one discussing dramatic festivals at Athens, production, theatre buildings, and actors in all their important aspects. Blume's treatment throughout is always succinct and to the point, and is as a rule well documented. (...) He gives the essential facts (...) and is judicious both in drawing conclusions (...) and in abjuring them. (...) This short book can be recommended as a reliable, as well as comprehensive, treatment of its far from easy subject.' (E.W. WHITTLE in The Classical Review (New Series), 1980, p. 145).

BLUME, H.-D., Untersuchungen zu Sprache und Stil der Schrift 'Peri hypsous'. Göttingen, 1963. VIII,117p. Offset print. Pages yellowed. With author’s intention on free endpaper. Diss. Universität zu Göttingen. 'Dr. Blume in his doctoral dissertation has made the first serious attempt to analyse the curiously elaborate Greek of this writer and to discover the principles which lie behind his choice of words and the structure of his sentences. He divides his work into three parts. The first and shortest concerns diction. (...). The second part concerns 'mimesis'. (...) The last part of the book, entitled 'Synthesis', describes and illustrates Longinus' 'independent use of stylistic figures, his word-order, rhythm, sentence-structure, ring-composition, etc. Blume's analyses of particular sentences and passages is careful, sensitivem and thorough, and he reveals many unsuspected subtleties in the elaborate architecture of 'Longinus'' prose. (...) It contains much that is interesting and original and it is clearly the work of a talented scholar.' (H.LL. HUDSON WILLIAMS in The Classical Review (New Series), 1965, pp.226-27).
