Review "Der Versuch, in der antiken Sprach- und Literaturwissenschaft wiederkehrende Archetypen, Konzepte und Zusammenhänge explizit anzusprechen und in den Mittelpunkt der Untersuchung zu stellen, ist ein besonderes Verdienst dieser Sammlung." Philipp Brandenburg in: Historiographia Linguistica Universiteit Gent 1-2/2013 "The volume is nicely produced, and typos are fairly rare and rather obvious. In addition to a useful bibliography, there is an index locorum and a general index. Most, but not all, the Greek and Latin is translated, and the translations are generally, though not universally, accurate."
