FOWLER, R. L., Early Greek Mythography. Volume 2: Commentary. Oxford University Press, 2013. 848p. Hardback. Fourteen years ago, Robert Fowler presented a collection of the fragments of Early Greek Mythography, giving us the outline and all the recoverable details of a lost continent of early Greek prose; we were grateful for an important and accessible volume. Now, he has followed up with a commentary that shows how important these lost treatises and their authors were for the beginnings and development of the Greek prose book, the appropriation and systematization of mostly local narratives, and the emergence of Greek historiography ... [it] leaves us with a truly three-dimensional view of the landscape we have lost ... It seems almost certain that Fowler will become yet another household name Judges comments, Charles J.
