Recenzii
Cynthia Damon's new edition, supplemented by a detailed monograph, gives a wonderfully clear and thorough account of how modern texts of e bello ciuili have to be constructed, identifying which of the 200 or so extant manuscripts gets us closest to the readings of that lost Carolingian copy
Readers of this new edition will find many new compelling readings, and the apparatus criticus will enable them to understand the rationale behind each choice and then accept or reject specific readings.
This excellent edition makes serious contributions to the reconstruction of the text, and its careful and deep reading of the text of BC and the close study of its textural tradition is accompanied by an insightful commentary on troublesome passages that brings to light the enormous complexity of a text that has been transmitted in such a deficient way, offering suggestive new proposals that will encourage reflection on the reading and interpretation of the work of Caesar.
