Recenzii
In this companion volume to his Greek Metre, D.S. Raven has provided a work of reference which will be useful not only the undergratuate and [A-level] student but also t many teachers of Latin. On every kind of metre, from the primitive "saturnian" to medieval accentual, information is given in the simplest possible terms. There are metrica notes on selected authors and an index of technical terms . With this introduction at hand, no-one who reads any kind of Latin poetry has legitimate grounds for thinking that questions of metre are too difficult or boring.
His aim is to simplify, thus helping students who recoil from the quantitative metres 'with quite unjustifiable alarm'. Whether they embark on the perilous seas of verse composition or only read the Roman poets, they will profit greatly...
