- Double-weighted statement
- This book merits double weighting because of the academic investment it demonstrates and its intellectual scope. It uncovers lesser-known texts and sheds new light on well-known ones, proposing a new methodology for the study of classical reception and life-writing. It analyses over 40 texts of various genres, by many authors, spanning a changing context of 100 years, and engages with different critical approaches: literary, socio-literary, historicist, drawing on translation and reception studies. It has been reviewed in Modern Philology, Bryn Mawr Classical Review; French Studies; Classical Review; MLR and H-France Review; and was described as 'a true academic feat' (MLR).
