A 1998 study from a European press is certainly not "coals to Newcastle" for Americans. Even for specialists, it takes time for the word to get out and for copies of such books to reach our shores. I would be interested in hearing more about the contents of this book before I make a special effort to obtain it. What periods, what languages, what texts does it consider? Is Chaucer's Dido in there? Or Marlowe's? Whose besides Virgil's? What kind of critical approach is taken? More, please "Outis" (or others conversant with this new book)! Thanks, Randi Eldevik Oklahoma State University
