Essays in the Interpretation of Roman Poetryby D.S. McKie"Is this a book on textual criticism?", asks the author in his preface. "To the extent that it is, a number of individual passages in Catullus are examined in the first chapter. Chapter 2 is devoted to a close reading of the language of Catullus 68a. In the final chapter the author hypothecates an interpretation of Ovid Heroides 1 and proceeds, with circularity, to make the text accord with it. Who speaks in the end, Ovid or the editor?" 307p (Cambridge Classical Press 2009)
