MANUWALD, Gesine, Roman Republican Theatre. Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 2015. 1st paperback ed. XII,390p. Paperback. 'Gesine Manuwald, who has written extensively on the field, here gives a valuable overview and synthesis of research on a wide range of questions relating to what she aptly calls 'the sweeping and imprecise term ‘Roman Republican drama’' (vii). Her treatment addresses questions about the history, archaeology, performance, poets, and contents of the diverse varieties of dramatic performance in the republican period, and, although some gaps in its coverage will doubtless be felt, there can be no questioning its value on what our texts say, what was said in antiquity about drama, and especially what modern scholarship has to say. This book has much to contribute to the contemporary flourishing of scholarship on Roman drama (...).' (JARRETT WELSH in Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2012.07.43). € 32.50 (New)

MARDER, T.A., and M. WILSON JONES, (eds.), The Pantheon from Antiquity to the Present. Cambridge University Press, New York, 2018. 1st paperback ed. XIX,471p. Richly ills.(B&W photographs and line drawings). Paperback. “Few monuments from antiquity have engaged scholarship to such an extent as the Pantheon, a fact clearly illustrated by the thirteen contributions assembled here which address the building’s fabric and history from antiquity to the present. This volume consolidates recent progress regarding the technical and historical questions that continue to linger, while setting out the current state of research for a wider public. In achieving these goals, the editors have also integrated the individual contributions into a coherent whole. ‘The Pantheon’ does not mask its indebtedness to previous works (…), but instead offers a significant update through the application of decades of new research and new digital modelling technologies. A lengthy opening chapter by the editors sets the stage for the volume as a whole. Summaries of each contribution are interwoven into a thematic and diachronic narrative that provides orientation for the more narrowly-focused chapters to come. The remainder of the volume is essentially divided into two parts, with the first group of contributions (Chapters 2-7) thematically focused on the physical structure of the Pantheon and the second group (Chapters 8-13) diachronically focused on the history of the building’s reception from the Middle Ages to the 20th century.” (M.D. HAMMOND in The Classical Journal, 2016, p.121). € 30.00 (New)
