[ SOLD OUT ] HUNINK, V.J.Chr., M. Annaeus Lucanus Bellum Civile Book III. A Commentary. Een wetenschappelijke proeve op het gebied van de Letteren, in het bijzonder de Filologie. Gieben, Amsterdam, 1992. XXIII,309p. Theses. Sewn. Diss. Katholieke Universiteit Nijmegen. (Rare). 'H.'s commentary on the third book of the 'Bellum Civile' is a most welcome contribution to the current (and long overdue) rekindling of interest in Lucan. It is thorough and wide-ranging and shows consistently judicious judgement throughout in matters of establishment of the text, translation and interpretation. Frequent reference is made in the commentary to the full bibliography at the end (pp.269-88), reflecting H.'s careful and comprehensive reading of the secondary literature. (...) For any scholar seeking illumination of Lucan's lexical and literary practices, this volume is essential.' (S.H. BRAUND in The Classical Review (New Series), 1994, pp.45-47).
