Mr. Hackforth . divides the dialogue into twenty-six sections each preceded by a synopsis and followed by stimulating and instructive discussions. The translation combines fidelity with elegance and is scrupulously free from embroidery. . Hackforth rightly defends the unity of the dialogue; it is held together by its main puposes 'to vindicate the pursuit of philosophy' by contrast with the claims of rhetoric. .

Bei E.B. Schwickert Leipzig 1828. Rev.ed. LXXIV136p. Hard bound. With gilt titled vignette to spine. Title fading. Part of spine joints edges cover as well as corners scratched. Note on free endpaper. Friedrich August Wolf 1759-1824 is one of those literary figures who hovers between fame and obscurity somehow without deserving either. Wolf was a professional classicist a man of extreme erudition and a good friend of Wilhelm von Humboldt and of Goethe. Through these acquaintances he took part in the Neo-Hellenism of that fertile period in German letters during the last decades of the eighteenth century and the first decades of the nineteenth. Among classicists he is best remembered for his work on Homer for he was the first to defend systematically the analytic theory. Wolf was as influential as any single scholar in creating the modern discipline of classical studies. He coined the term Altertumswissenschaft and helped to make it the first modern humanistic discipline. His concept of scholarly method remains influential today. For this reason alone Wolfs work deserves to be better known and better understood by contemporary classicists. JAY BOLTER University of North Carolina 1979.
