Latin Literature from Seneca to Juvenal

`His achievement ... is to uncover a wide range of different tones, views and techniques and expound them all with unflagging enthusiasm ... this is a valuable book, providing clear, learned and totally committed interpretations of authors, some of whom have suffered undeserved neglect.' The Times Literary Supplement 'with his latest book Hutchinson has moved beyond his master to survey an even larger field in Latin, in a way that few living scholars could ... It goes without saying that the new book is full of important points of detail, and that it is essential reading for anyone working on Silver Latin.' Greece and Rome, October 1993 'The man who prefers Seneca to Cicero and Livy is a rare bird, but Hutchinson writes with missionary zeal ... his advocacy is bravely committed.' Times Higher Education Supplement 'the results afford some unexpected pleasures along the way, and the bibliography and notes are excellent. The volume should give further impetus to the rehabilitation of this unjustly neglected field of Latin literature.' A M Keith 'This work will add to our understanding of at least some of the asuthors surveyed. The book maintains the usual high Clarendon Press standards.' C.D.N. Costa, University of Birmingham, The Classical Review, Vol. XLIV, No. 1, 1994 'This book will be widely consulted by scholars and students working in the area.' illiam J Dominik, University of Natal, Durban, Scholia, Vol. 3, 1994
