LEFÈVRE, E., Plautus' Aulularia. Narr Verlag, Tübingen, 2001. 227p. Hard bound. With editor's dedication on free endpaper. Series: ScriptOralia, 122.Plautus' Aulularia ist eine der bekanntesten Komödien der römischen Antike. Sie verdankt ihre Beliebtheit der beeindruckenden Zeichnung der Hauptfigur Euclio, der durch den plötzlichen Fund eines Schatzes sein inneres Gleichgewicht verliert und zu einem ungewollt komischen Sonderling mutiert. Die Untersuchung unternimmt es, das verlorene griechische Original zu rekonstruieren sowie aus der reichen Rezeption Rückschlüsse auf das Verständnis des plautinischen Stücks zu ziehen.

LEFÈVRE, E., Die Expositionstechnik in den Komödien des Terenz. Wissenschaftliche Buchgesellschaft, Darmstadt, 1969. 117p. Cloth. Cover a little bit stained. Pencil annotations and markings from WGA. With author's dedication on free endpaper.Ín this neat libellus Lefèvre probes the consequences of Terence's elimination of the expository prologues of his originals. Terence, he concludes, wished to eliminate an essentially non-dramatic element, rather than to increase the element of surprise. (...) The real meat, however, is his analytic and doxographic treatment of each play. (...) We look forward to broader and deeper contribution from this lucid scholar in a subject where a great deal is yet to be discovered and defined. (A.S. GRATWICK in The Classical Review (New Series), 1972, p.300-02). From the library of the late Prof. W. Geoffrey Arnott. € 17.50 (Antiquarian)

LEFKOWITZ, M.R., Heroines and Hysterics. Duckworth, London, 1981. IX,96p. Paperback. Small personal library mark and name on free endpaper. Although women’s studies have flourished, it is only recently that serious scholarly attention has been paid to the study of women in antiquity. This is due partly to the scattered nature of the evidence, parly to the loss of so much essential information about both private and social life, partly to the almost total lack of female biography. In this book Lefkowitz addresses herself to a number of interesting questions about Greek and Roman women, ranging from the patterns of women’s lives in myth and drama to the curious medical theories of hysteria and the ‘wandering womb’, from the poetry of Sappho and Semonides to the motivations of St Perpetua’s martyrdom. Lefkowitz shows how modern experience affects our understanding of the past, and controversely how ancient views of women’s life and mind continue to affect our thinking today.
