BOËLDIEU-TREVET, Jeannine, Commander dans le monde grec au Ve siècle avant notre ère. Presses universitaires de Franche-Comté, Besançon, 2007. 294p. Paperback. ‘Jeannine Boëldieu-Trevet s’interroge (…) sur la nature du commandement en Grèce, sur son évolution depuis l’époque archaïque, sur les liens étroits que l’on peut mettre en exergue entre commander et gouverner, sur le rapport entre les transformations qui s’opèrent durant la guerre du Péloponnèse et la naissance d’un art dum commandement, conceptualisé comme tel (stratégikè technè). (…) L’essor de ce nouvel art du commandement modifie (…) profondément l’appréhension même de la guerre: la victoire est désormais perçue comme la seule forme ‘digne’ d’achever un conflit (…). Cet essai rigoureux est une lecture nécessaire pour les spécialistes, mais par son style agréable, clair et concis il rendra aussi service aux étudiants et plus largement à tout lecteur curieux de ces questions. (ARIAN ESPOSITO in L’antiquité classique, 2011, pp.460). From the library of Prof. Carl Deroux. € 25.00 (Antiquarian)

CASSIO, A.C., Commedia e partecipazione. La Pace di Aristofane. Liguiri editore, Napoli, 1985. 152p. Paperback. Front cover a little bit stained. Small personal library mark, name as well as author’s dedication on free endpaper. Series: Forme materiali e ideologie del mondo antico, 24. 'C. argues that 'Peace' is an undervalued and unusual play containing aspects of technique that are atypical of Aristophanes and which are a function of the particular historical conditions obtaining in Athens during the period of its conception and historical composition and also of the particular, discernible 'message' which Aristophanes wished to convey to his audience. For C. the play is very much concerned with Athens' allies and Athenian maltreatment of them. (...) This is a book which packs a great deal of substantial and interesting points of detail on all aspects of the play into its relatively short ambit. Any future commentator will have to pay it close attention.' (DAVID BAIN in The Classical Review (New Series), 1986, pp.201-02). From the library of the late Sir Kenneth James Dover. € 25.00 (Antiquarian)
