THE BACCHAE OF EURIPIDES. 
with Introduction, Critical Notes, and Archaeological” Illustrations, 
by J. E. Sandys, M.A., Fellow and Tutor of St John’s College, Cam- 
bridge, and Public Orator. Crown 8 vo cloth, icxt. 6d. 
“ Of the present edition of the Bacchee by- 
Mr Sandys we may safely say that never 
before has a Greek play, in England at 
least, had fuller justice done to its criti- 
cism, interpretation, and archaeological il- 
lustration, whether for the young student or 
the more advanced scholar. The Cambridge 
Public Orator may be said to have taken the 
lead in issuing a complete edition of a Greek 
play, which is destined perhaps to gain re- 
doubled favour now that the study of ancient 
monuments has been applied to its illustra- 
tion.” — Saturday Review.- 
‘ ‘ Mr Sandys has done well by his poet and 
by his University. He has given a most 
welcome gift to scholars both at home and 
abroad. The illustrations are aptly chosen 
and delicately executed, and the apparatus 
criticus, in the way both of notes and indices 
is very complete.” — Notes and Queries. 
“ The volume is interspersed with well- 
executed woodcuts, and its general attractive- 
ness of form reflects great credit on the 
University Press. In the notes Mr Sandys 
has more than sustained his well-earned 
reputation as a careful and learned editor, 
and shows considerable advance in freedom 
and lightness of style Under such cir- 
cumstances it is superfluous to say that for 
the purposes of teachers and advanced stu- 
dents this handsome edition far surpasses all 
its predecessors. The volume will add to the 
already wide popularity of a unique drama, 
and must be reckoned among the most im- 
portant classical publications of the year.” — 
A thenceum. 
“This edition of a Greek play deserves 
more than the passing notice accorded to 
ordinary school editions of the classics. It 
has not, like so many such books, been 
hastily produced to meet the momentary 
need of some particular examination ; but it 
has employed for some years the labour and 
thought of a highly finished scholar, whose 
aim seems to have been that his book should 
go forth totus teres atque rotundus, armed 
at all points with all that may throw light 
upon its subject. The result is a work which 
will not only assist the schoolboy or under- 
graduate in his tasks, but will adorn the 
library of the scholar.” . . “ The description 
of the woodcuts abounds in interesting and 
suggestive information upon various points 
of ancient art, and is a further instance 
of the very thorough as well as scholar- 
like manner in which Mr Sandys deals 
with his subject at every point. The com- 
mentary (pp. 87 — 240) bears the same stamp 
of thoroughness and high finish as the rest of 
the work. While questions of technical 
grammar receive due attention, textual cri- 
ticism, philology, history, antiquities, and 
art are in turn laid under contribution for the 
elucidation of the poet’s meaning. We must 
leave our readers to use and appreciate for 
themselves Mr Sandys’ assistance .” — The

M. T. CICERONIS DE OFFICIIS LIBRI TRES, 
with Marginal Analysis, an English Commentary, and copious Indices, 
by H. A. Holden, LL.D. Head Master of Ipswich School, late Fellow 
of Trinity College, Cambridge, Classical Examiner to the University 
of London. Fourth Edition. Revised and considerably enlarged. 
Crown 8 vo. 9 ^. 
“Dr Holden truly states that ‘Text, 
Analysis, and Commentary in this third edi- 
tion bave been again subjected to a thorough 
revision.’ It is now certainly the best edition 
extant. . . . The Introduction (after Heine) 
and notes leave nothing to be desired in point 
of fulness, accuracy, and neatness ; the typo- 
graphical execution will satisfy the most fas- 
tidious eye.” — Notes and Queries. 
“Dr Holden has issued an edition of what 
is perhaps the easiest and most popular of 
Cicero’s philosophical works, the de Officiis , 
which, especially in the form which it has now 
assumed after two most thorough revisions, 
leaves little or nothing to be desired in the 
fullness and accuracy of its treatment alike 
of the matter and the language.” — Academy.
