    Dionysii Byzantii Anaplus Bospori. Una cum scholiis X saeculi editit. Apud Weidmannos, Berolini, 1958. 2nd ed. XLVI,45p. Sewn. (Rare). Mistakes based on Gilles’ Latin translation of the ‘Anaplus Bospori’ of Dionysius still linger on in textbooks, and Dr. Güngerich has done a real service to scholarship in this careful recension of the Latin text ad of the surviving portions of the Greek text. The introduction discusses the MSS. and editions, the style and date of the treatise, and critical and exegetical points. From the absence of any reference to the damage done to Byzantium by Septimus Severus in A.D. 195, Güngerich argues for a date in the second rather than in the third century. A model edition.’ (W.M. CALDER in The Classical Review, 1929, p.238). (Antiquarian)  (approx. delivery time: undeliverable)
