Survey of the Latin Classics and is responsible for the Oxford
Classical Texts of Seneca (Letters and Dialogues), Sallust, and
Cicero (De finibus). N. G. Wilson is Emeritus Fellow and Tutor of

of Menander Rhetor with accompanying
translation and commentary. He has contributed to the Oxford
Classical Text series Sophocles (in collaboration with Sir Hugh

'For the third edition the authors have not only brought the
bibliographical notes up to date but also made extensive amendments
and additions, both small and large, throughout the text.'
James Diggle, Queens' College, Cambridge, The Classical Review
'This is a very fine book indeed. The text is written with
admirable lucidity, wit and charm. The book itself is a clearly
printed and stout paperback, well worth the reommended retail price
of $44.95, and of course, as befits a volume produced by the Oxford
University Press on this topic above all, the text is flawless.
Clearly I would recommend Scribes and Scholars as a valuable
acquisition for a school library which could be consulted with
profit by senior students ... this book, with its overwhelming
proof of the centrality of Classics in the western tradition, is
essential reading.'
M. Dyson, University of Queensland, Ancient History, 1992, No.

'This enlarged version remains a valuable resource for both
graduate student and scholar. Scribes and Scholars is a book which
has done much good and will continue to do so.'
E. Christian Kopff, University of Colorado, Classical Bulletin
(1992)
'The third edition of this superb work has been carefully revised
to reflect advances in classical scholarship since publication of
the previous edition. The work is indispensable for classical
students who have not read the previous edition, and recommended
for those who want recent information on an essential subject.'
Gerald O'Sullivan, Stockton State College, Classical World
