Rezension

"In all, the volume has much to recommend it, reaching the heightsof sublimity more often than sending its readers to purgatory. Forsuch an enormous enterprise the editors are to be congratulated,especially as it is well-produced, with very few errors orproblems." (Bmcreview, 16 August 2011)

"Cooperation among the various authors is a significant featureof the book...In sum, this volume includes something for any loverof Virgil." ( CHOICE, January 2011)"This is a usefulreference for scholars in a number of disciplines." ( Book NewsInc, November 2010)
