`this new edition would fill a gap even if Raymond Foreville's
excellent edition of 1952 were not out of print. It is a
first-class work of scholarship in every way. The fifty-page
introduction, a monograph in itself, is a model of clarity and
completeness ... This is an edition that continues the tradition of
high scholarly standards of the OMT series and is a delight to
use.'
Peter Damian-Grint, Medium Aevum, Vol 67, no. 2
`This new edition now offers another ten (inspired) amendments, but
its principal justification lies with its elaborate annotation and
its provision of a parallel English translation ... Chibnall has
discharged her responsibilities as editor with commendable
thoroughness'
D.J.A. Matthew, University of Reading, EHR, June 1999
