Recenzii

'...Paul Murgatroyd’s work must be warmly welcomed because it offers not only a reliable text but also a new English translation, the first complete one, and an extensive commentary on Secundus two books of love elegies and the three so-called ‘ceremonial elegies…Murgatroyd’s excellent commentaries help us to savor the wit, ingenuity, and creativity of Janus Secundus.
