Reviews

`Review from previous edition It is not often that a work of epigraphy is the year's most eagerly awaited volume. Greek Historical Inscriptions, 404-323, edited by P. J. Rhodes and Robin Osborne is just that ... from now on the fourth century will seem a much more welcome place.' Greece & Rome `an extraordinarily interesting collection which differs from earlier works not only in the number and the geographic and thematic range of the inscriptions presented, but also in the inclusion of translations and extensive commentaries for each text, which makes it an exceptionally useful teaching tool.' Journal of Classics Teaching

There is hardly an aspect of ancient Greek political, religious, or social life on which the inscriptions collected here do not touch. The new collection introduces several innovations, the most important are the English translations that accompany all Greek texts, photographs, and reminders that the texts on paper were once part of more substantial physical objects. Ancient historians certainly will find it indespensable. American Journal of Archaeology<br>
