 | Thucydides : Man's Place in History Hans-Peter Stahl is one of the most distinguished contemporary writers on classical literature. An authority on both Greece and Rome, his particular achievement is to reveal the logic of writers, imaginative and factual alike, in the political sphere. Author of numerous studies of the Greek classical period, Stahl has also written Propertius, 'Love' and 'War': Individual and state under Augustus (University of California Press), and is editor of Vergil's Aeneid: Augustan epic and political context (Classical Press of Wales). He is at present preparing a major new study of Vergil. |
