Critics, Compilers, and Commentators is the first comprehensive introduction to Roman philology-the study of Latin language and Latin texts. It explains its history and forms as they were transformed by changing intellectual and social contexts, and provides description and bibliography of hundreds of surviving dictionaries, commentaries, and grammars.
Reviews
James Zetzel has written two outstanding books in one. The second half of Critics, Compilers, and Commentators is a modern portrait gallery of our ancestors, the ancient scholars who hover behind our Latin texts. The first half tells a fascinating story of how the work they did coalesced into a cultural project.
