Review `The editors have chosen to order the papers chronologically by date of publication . it does add a perspective of development within the subject which is valuable and illuminating. The quality of the articles is consistently high and the volume as a whole has a pleasing range and a depth appropriate to good sixth form and undergraduate students. The production standards are, as usual, high. Where necessary, writers have added addenda to their pieces to take account of subsequent bibliography. The book is rounded off with a full and helpful index, and a composite index of passages cited, which I find especially valuable . this collection deserves to be bought by any school or college with an interest in classical and/or gender studies.'
