Thucydides - Kenneth J. Dover
Book VI (BCP Greek Texts) (BCP Greek Texts)
KORTE INHOUD
'A very high standard of scholarship is maintained throughout this edition. (...) Dover seems to be a specialist on every aspect of his work. He is as much at home when dealing with linguistic peculiarities and textual difficulties as when discussing problems of topography (...) or the technological obscurities of Greek naval architecture. (...). The long discussion of the Peisistratic digression (VI 54-59) is valuable, especially in pointing out that the motive of Thucydides is to correct historical error even at the cost of irrelevance, an essential factor underlying all the major digressions (...). Among the most welcome features of this edition is that Dover faces squarely some historical problems to which little or no attention has hitherto been paid.' (H.D. WESTLAKE in The Classical Review, 1966, p.26-28).
