    De zeereis van de heilige Brendaan
    Glücklich ist dieser Ort!
    Apuleius of Madauros, Pro Se de Magia (2 Vols.): A New Edition with Commentary
    • 1997

      Focusing on 2nd century Roman oratory, this publication offers a detailed commentary on Apuleius' Pro Se De Magia, highlighting its rhetorical strategies and literary richness. With no recent English commentary available, the book fills a significant gap, providing insights into the intricacies of the speech and its context within the Second Sophistic movement. This work serves both as an analysis of Apuleius' techniques and as an exploration of the speech's unique literary qualities.
