Martin West is internationally known as one of the outstanding
Classical scholars of our time, and one of the most prolific.
Hellenica is a three-volume selection of ninety or so of his most
notable papers relating to Greek literature and thought. This third
volume contains thirty-three pieces chosen from over four decades
of publication, and one hitherto unpublished. Eleven items fall
under the heading of philosophy and ten under that of music and
metre. Most of the remainder are on literary texts and topics; they
include an English version of the author's Teubner Lecture on the
role and image of the Greek poetess, and obituaries of two Oxford
Regius Professors of Greek. The volume is rounded off with a
provocative collection of Obiter Dicta culled from the whole body
of the author's output. The first volume is devoted to early epic
and the second to the lyric poets and tragedy. Each volume contains
a preface, indexes, and a full list of the author's other writings
relating to the areas in question. This third one also contains an
index of the publications reproduced or excerpted in Hellenica
I-III.
