Item description from seller

Scholar's bookplate to inner cover (G. P. Goold). Foxing/dustsoiling to top of textblock. Dustjacket spine is sunned. Dustjacket has minor shelfwear and rubbing to extremities.; Cambridge Classical Texts and Commentaries; 124 pages; Nothing is known of the Greek poet Rufinus other than that he was the author of a collection of thirty-nine epigrams. In fact he is such an insubstantial figure that his date has been placed at various points within nearly half a millennium. Professor Page here presents a text of Rufinus' poems and a concise commentary on them. In his introduction he considers the criteria by which a date may be established and finds evidence in favour of the fourth century AD.
