Reviews

This volume serves two important purposes. First, it demonstrates the importance of Flavian engagement with Greek literature and thought even where we might least expect it, in writers like Silius and Martial. Second, it testifies to the vitality of the study of Flavian literature in contemporary Latin studies. These major poets are finally receiving the scrutiny and appreciation that they deserve. Peter Davis, Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2014.08.53.
