This companion to the Classical Quarterly contains reviews of new work dealing with the literatures and civilizations of ancient Greece and Rome. Over 300 books are reviewed each year.

The Classical Review

The Argonauts were a band of heroes in Greek mythology who in the years before the Trojan War accompanied Jason to Colchis in his quest to find the Golden Fleece. Their name comes from their ship, Argo. "The familiar ground makes excellent going even for those who know it best, for Dr Rouse has his own way of dealing with the stories. Boys and girls of 11 to 13 years of age could hardly find a better introduction to the classical legends."

Adventures of the Argonauts

This essay explores the relationship of ancient Greeks to their dieties through votive offerings - those things given freely to a being conceived as superhuman.

The Teaching of Latin at the Perse School, Cambridge

The author never forgets he is a scholar, and never allows us to forget that he is a wit and a humorist. Let us pretend that the phrase has never been used before, and therefore declare because we mean it: This book will please children of all ages from ten to eighty. The heard-for-the-first-time, or the familiar stories of Greek mythology are told as parts of a connected whole; this book is The Rise and Fall of the Olympian Empire. The Greeks had a clear conception of the family histories of their gods, godesses and demi-gods; here it is, complete with a family tree, and the stories remembered by celestial or earthly Nannies when their charges had grown up and become celebrated.
