Recenzii

'L.'s volume is a rare book because of the excellence of his ideas and the quality of research and writing. It masterfully shows how our life is shaped by modernity's appropriation of an ancient Greek heritage … The scholarship is stellar throughout … The book enters as a sharp-sighted contribution into the field of literature on modernity and its relationship to the ancient Greeks.' Marina Marren, The Classical Review
'The scholarly rigour of Dionysus after Nietzsche, and the painstaking research evidenced throughout, mark it out as a vital addition to existing work on the interactions between ancient and modern literature. This book will be of keen interest to all students and researchers of classical reception, especially tragedy, as well as those of modern literature, philosophy, and social theory, in addition to the interested general reader.' Samuel Agbamu, Rhea Classical Reviews
