Douglas M. MacDowell (1931-2010) was a scholar of international
renown and the articles included here cover a significant area of
classical scholarship, discussing Athenian law, law-making and
legal procedure, Old Comedy, comedy and law, politics and
lexicography. All of these articles, published between 1959 and
2010, bear the characteristic marks of his scholarship: precision,
balanced judgement, brevity and deep learning; they are rational
and sober accounts of complicated and controversial issues. Many of
these essays are virtually inaccessible as they were originally
published in celebratory volumes or article collections which are
now out of print or difficult to find outside major libraries. This
collection of MacDowell's articles will make these works available
to a broad scholarly audience, and make it easier to bring this
scholarship to the classroom as part of courses in Classics,
ancient history, legal history and theatre studies. The volume
includes a biography of MacDowell by Christopher Carey, based on
the testimony of his closest colleagues and personal friends, which
was presented to the British Academy.
