Recenzii

For this reviewer the pieces by Cairns, Craik and Liapis have been particularly provocative and revealing, but there can be few students of Greek tragedy who cannot learn something of value and interest from each of the seventeen contributions. Readers who have appreciated and profited from Garvie's learning and discernment can take vicarious satisfaction from this commendable and fitting tribute to a distinguished scholar.
