Pais, Ettore. Ancient legends of Roman history; tr. by Mario E. Cosenza. *$4. Dodd.

Professor Pais, connected with the University of Naples, brings together here a number of lectures on the early Roman legends which form the substratum of later political and social development.


“The translation is marred by some constantly recurring errors. Very few of the radical views advanced in these lectures will ever be generally accepted, but they cannot fail to arouse opposition and to stimulate fruitful discussion. The erudition and acumen of the author are truly remarkable.” Samuel Ball Platner.

“The book is a scholarly one, essentially for the scholar.”
