Sir Kenneth Dover, now Chancellor of the University of St Andrews, is an outstanding Greek scholar of international reputation. Among his many publications are books on Greek homosexuality and popular morality, and magisterial editions of Thucydides and Aristophanes. Former pupils and colleagues, themselves distinguished scholars (including Emeritus Professors A. Andrewes, I. G. Kidd, Sir Hugh Lloyd-Jones, D. A. Russell; Professors P. Barron, D. M. Lewis, D. M. MacDowell, R. G. M. Nisbet, M. L. West; and many others) have contributed to this seventieth-birthday tribute, on topics ranging from dramatic and other poetry to history, society, art, language, metre and rhythm, and texts and scholars.
Industry Reviews
'If one's mind can seem like a desert when the question of contributing to such a volume arises, it can easily feel spoilt for choice in contemplating the product of so distinguished a collective. The Pieces ... will take their place in the professional literature of their subjects, to go on being quoted, some ... for a very long time.' E.W. Handley, Trinity College, Cambridge, The Classical Review, Vol. XLIII, No. 1, 1993
