Recensioner i media

‘Cropp offers an effective overview of what we know of Greek tragedy from the fourth century onwards… the commentary, concise and fluent but at the same time punctual and not without original suggestions, allow one easy use of the text even for those who do not have specialist knowledge on the subject.’ Paolo B. Cipolla, Exemplaria Classica (translated from Italian)
