Reviews

<br> This is a remarkable and challenging book, full of learning and imagination EL Squire successfully challenges much of the received wisdom about the Tabulae Iliacae, provoking us to look at them anew even when we may not agree with his take on them. --Fred W. Jenkins, Bryn Mawr Classical Review<p><br>


In its physical weight and explicit ambition, it still manages to intimate its subject matter in being simultaneously intense and delicate. Karel Thein, Listy Filologicke Squire offers rich analyses of various aspects of the Tabulae. Gail Trimble, The Anglo-Hellenic Review No. 47
