L. Annaeus Seneca Troades
Introduction, Text and Commentary
Series: - Mnemosyne, Supplements, Volume: 212
Author:
A.J. Keulenâs new commentary on Senecaâs Troades is the fruit of a lifetime devotion to this play. This extensive philological commentary on the Troades is a most welcome contribution to the study of Senecaâs plays. Meaning, history and usage of Senecaâs vocabulary are thoroughly discussed. The author provides ample comparison with Senecan prose and rival poets. In addition, the commentary addresses composition and word order, and discusses textual, metrical and grammatical difficulties. A full bibliography and three indices complete this valuable book.
Atze J. Keulen, Ph.D. in Classics at the University of Groningen, published a school edition of the play with Brill in 1971 and a metrical Frisian translation in 1995.
'Here is a volume that every Senecan scholar must have and for which we can only be gratefulâ¦In short the volume is of the highest quality and will be repeatedly consulted for generations.'
