"ONE OF THE BEST REFERENCE BOOKS OF THE YEAR: An exciting revision of an old classic"-- Library Journal . "This excellent new edition of an old standby can be highly recommended to anyone interested in classical civilization" -- The Los Angeles Times . "In the best tradition of Oxford companions"-- Wilson Library Bulletin . From the rise of Athens to the fall of Rome, the rich cultural legacy of the classical past has been distilled in The Oxford Companion to Classical Literature . Over 2,400 entries (30% more than the venerable first edition) supply ready access to ancient literature and history. The entries range from brief definitions to extended articles on major points of history, politics, economics, and philosophy. But the main focus, of course, is on ancient literature, with over 300 discussions of plays, poems, and philosophical and political dialogues, as well as over 600 biographies of important figures and more than 400 entries on characters and themes in classical writing.
