Recenzii
The essays, though concise, are mostly of high quality, opening up the field of 'Greek dress in social and cultural context', a field with enormous potential, and no shortage of material. Indeed this is one of the more substantial and original recent volumes on Greek women and their (self-)representation tout court. The papers of Blundell and Ogden, in particular, deserve to become mainstays of student bibliographies.
